Chris, This is just the best one-stop-shop primer on JC and the Bible! You cover so much ground with humor and truth. So many great lines and insights as well -- like I never though about the "shake the dust of your feet" like you put, but it's flipping bird, refuse my pamphlet well FU dude! --- oh the air-tight immense arrogance of knowing everything about the cosmos and our place in it .....how could this farce have become the most successful religious cult of all time?
Sometimes I think I'm going to lose my mind. How anyone can believe all the horseshit in the bible is beyond my comprehension. Truly. Clearly, it is this type of thinking that has put us in our current political position.
Wow! What an interesting take...I am of the opinion that it was a pretty fucked up thing for God to show his love for us by fucking with jesus so much...and I agree that the whole holy trinity idea is mind boggling, to say the least.
I consider myself a deist...and I'm also an ordained preacher in the cannabis clergy vein...
Your writing is spot on...humor and insight captures the imagination and makes you quite the provocateur...keep that shit up, youngblood! 🐐
I'm 71...everyone is a teenager to me! It's a frame of mind, though...the older I get the less I care what anyone thinks and the more fun I have.
I like to get people to challenge their own world view and realize they don't have to follow the path they were set upon by dint of indoctrination. I simply ask 'how does that work' during a conversation and watch as we experience the cognitive dissonance that follows. Gently, though, as people will dig in if they feel their positions attacked.
Alas, the immediate health issues of my girlfriend and I take up most of my time. It is rare that I get to give rein to exploring social media and discovering unique people and points of veiw such as yourself. Wishing for you success in your endeavers, I remain.

Totally. and the the more you look at it the more bizarro it is.

You made my day with that “Youngblood” as I am well into my 60’s. Looking forward to getting to know you!

Stu,
Remain as you are. Wonderful!
Your perspective on challenging people's world views made my day. I hope one day to watch you "work the room." Now that would be really entertaining.
I look forward to more of your commentary.
Ever evolving,
Chris
