33. Godless by Pete Hautman


This novel explores a teenager's questioning of religion.  Jason Bock is agnostic and thinks that religion is a waste of time.  So when he gets knocked out under a water tower he wonders half-jokingly what if god was a water tower.  Jason decides to create his own religion with the ten-legged water tower as god.  He enlists his friends and an enemy to assist in the new religion.  The new religion quickly spins out of control when his friend, Shin, starts taking the religion serious.  Good novel about the questioning of religion.  Easy read.
