When you take the lyrics "would he devote that Sacred Head for such a worm as I?" into your very core as a 5-year-old, it takes A LOT to get shut of that unsightly baggage as an adult.
Even "Amazing Grace": "...how sweet the sound that saved a wretch like me...."
Really? I was a child. A baby.
A wretch?
Reprobate & miscreant are some of the synonyms. I was to learn those as well.
And all of your "but #Jesus loves you and died for you!" protests to the contrary simply are not sufficient for countering the insidious, pernicious programming you installed in her Core Self during her most malleable, most vulnerable season of life.
Fundamentalism isn't limited to conservative religion.
Fundamentalism can rear its ugly head in any arena, any set of beliefs, any type of nonbelief-in-deity, any political identity, any life season.

Sometimes when we walk, we pass by this statue of Jesus at the Queen of Angels Church right off Welles Park in Lincoln Square. We often call him Bangra Jesus. Put on some Bangra music and look at the photo - ROFL

Have said it over and over, time after time: politics is the bane of Christianity. Politics is not a feature of heaven. The wolf in sheep's clothing today is a politician in a pastor's suit.
Due to the religious dogma of the time, Parmigianino was unable to express his full intentions in his version of The Madonna with the Long Neck. I've fixed it for him.
#FarRight#Arizona "#electionIntegrity" zealot, #AustinSmith, has based his entire identity on outrage over nonexistent #electionFraud. He wants a system where the electorate is comprised exclusively of white, #Christian, conservative men, just as #Jesus intended. So you might be surprised to learn that he's just been caught forging hundreds of signatures on his petition to run for state office.
Remember, my #Christian friends, that Americans having sex with intent of producing children kills more fertilized eggs than abortion. For every two children you bring into this world you kill at least one.
Your only ethical choice is to stop breeding. #Jesus loves you.
A new BOOK in my Visions and Voice series! Celebrating Christian FAITH. If you believe in loving yourself and loving your neighbor, then this book is for you! If you are a hateful person that uses Christianity to persecute other people, you won't like this book. It's about love, peace, comfort and Jesus.
The heart of #Christians are on full display following the #eclipse. Some delusional #Christofascist woman who was convinced that the eclipse would usher in the "#rapture" left huge tips for multiple servers prior to the event because she figured she'd be with #Jesus, and wouldn't need the cash. When she discovered that she was still on Earth after the eclipse, she was struck with #Biblical butt-hurt, and went back and demanded her tips back!
I had too much sugar today and it's entirely my fault and I was totally aware that it was happening but I still would like some extenuating circumference to blame, please.
If #Jesus came back today, #JamesComer and #GymJordan would subpoena him, and have him before their Congressional #impeachment committee tomorrow. The notion that they'd accept and embrace him is too absurd to even contemplate. Jesus, as described in their very own official #TrumpBible, is an unquestionable #liberal whose teachings are directly contrary to their professed beliefs. Jesus just doesn't understand #Christianity the way the #Republicans do.
I don't have any specifically Easter-themed music, but... #Jesus was apparently some kind of zombie; probably a lich (zombies that can do magic). So I suppose "The Inevitable Zombie Apocalypse" is a good themed tune for today. Have a listen and see if it doesn't put you in the #Easter spirit!
Easter means a lot to me. I know it's not everyone's holiday, but if you feel like I do about Easter and you have ever wondered if the story of Easter is for you-- don't let anyone tell you it's not.
I can't possibly apologize for all of the harm done in the name of a beautiful story. But, I think it's because of how fundamentally subversive "love thy neighbor" really is, if you take it seriously. So, the message is often poisoned at the source.
I woke up in the night wondering about the whole “on the third day he rose again” business. If he died on Friday, wouldn’t that make Monday the third day? At the risk of sounding like a Craig David song, wouldn’t he have chilled on Sunday? #Easter#Jesus#CraigDavid
