Religion: Communion Toast Crunch

Working at a Planet Fitness means I'm subjected to cable TV.

There's an early morning paid program from an Evangelical pastor hawking a biblical diet plan.

Officials at Transfiguration Catholic Church in Oakdale are apologizing for a message posted on the church’s electronic sign last week.

The message read: “Drag Queen-Free Since 1953!”

Parish officials said the sign’s message was removed on Friday evening after parish leadership learned of its existence.

The church originally posted a statement to Facebook, most likely written by the the priest. The public tore them into them, asking if the employee who wrote the sign is still employed, and other poignant comments calling out their hypocrisy, and parish members expressing their displeasure.

The church ended up deleting their post, disabling replies to their page, and reposted the apology letter. You know, they chose the cowards’ path.

The church is located in dx’s and DFG’s general area. My wife used to work there and we were married there.

Oh no





(actually, I've never heard of this church. But there are enough chauvins and blue lives as;sholes that live here)
 
Seeing several churches in the greater Grand Rapids area flying Israeli flags and putting signs out saying Jewish Lives Matter.

Which is odd, because Fundies don't really care about Jewish people.
 
Sadly, my wife is partaking in Adoration at the local Catholic parish. Tonight she said that she didn’t really want to go because she’s tired, asking me to go I her place. My reply was to give her a look of dismay, asking her what I would do there. She replied that I could take some book about something Catholic, not even a prayer book, just something teaching about the religion. My reply was almost instant and not well thought out. “You mean I’d read a book that tells me details about Catholic life, like when the pope takes a dump, it’s called a ‘Holy S—t Moment?’” It was received worse than you’d think.
 
Religiosity among non-derps is an irrational surrender to depression. I recommend treating it like any other mental illness -- you have to always respect the person and acknowledge the events that have led them to give up their adulthood and run back to the comfort of childhood.

An appreciation of a reality outside the given commercial idiocy of the modern world should be respected. It's sad that people feel the need to run back to the superstitions of humanity's infancy, but AFAIC that beats swallowing the stolid idiocy of The Real World.

Augustine is tripe, but it is tripe with more class than capitalism.

Would that somebody could deliver a new covenant with everything we have accomplished since we started to become adults around 1600. Maybe tomorrow. Tonight I am killing the pain of losing to the Indians.
