Religion Unzipped

Crotch hard tenting the cloak
Revival manifests its perpetrator
Come one Come all

Exposure purges the guilty
Man of shame Tribe of Levi zipper
May the metal teeth catch in the flesh

Scars in dens
Impostored lies
Revelations Hour of Reckoning

I've read that during or after a revival or other eligious experience that the congregation is more prone to sexual arousal. You go figure....

I got stuck in my zipper once. No fun. Must have been a sign, guess I missed the fine print. Patrick

Jesus was one who always caught imposters with their pants down and served some of his harshest words on the so-called priests. Tents or sepulchres, no amount of whitewashing ever removes the stench or brown-staining from what he sees... It will be a fate worse than Jaws for them one day... xx

If only all the peds would get bitten
by their brass zippers & everyone could
see them for who they really are and all
their disgusting secrets and hidden shame...
cowardly individuals
hang em all by their t-bags...

There is a difference between being Christian and practicing religion. Christians practice the teachings of our Lord Jesus, where religion practices all forms of corporeal punishment like it says in the old testament. What religious practitioners forget is, that Jesus said in Matthew 6:7-12; 7:"Ask and it will given to you; seek and you shall find; knock and the door will be opened to you. 8:For everyone who asks receives; he who seeks finds; and to him who knocks, the door will be opened.
9:"Which of you, if his son asks for bread will give him a stone? 10:Or if he asks for a fish, will give him a snake? 11:If you, then, though you are evil, know how to give good gifts to your children, how much more will your father in heaven give good gifts to those who ask him! 12:So in everything, do to others what you would have them do to you, for this sums up the Law and the Prophets." Taken from the Holy Bible, New International Version, page 673.

So it must be that the religious right wants to be treated in a bad or harmful manner just like they would want us to be treated. I guess "Do unto others as you would have them do unto you", doesn't mean anything to the religious right. But then the religious right only practices certain select passages and don't care about the rest.

Sodom and Gomorrah weren't destroyed because the people there were gay or bisexual, but because they were sinfully lustful.

I am sorry for venting, but religion in this country is just an excuse for righteous indignation on the part of those that disagree with how we live our lives, whether we be lesbian, gay, bi, transgendered, intersexed. The religious right just needs a target and anyone will do. Thank you for sharing.

May the Lord Jesus bless you, and those whom you love, and be with you always, and by your side. With much Love in my heart, Joy to the world, Peace on earth, & (((((((((((((((((((MANY SISTERLY HUGGGGSSSS)))))))))))))))), your little sister, Barbie

Dear Sage, I am one who believes in Jesus but I do not believe in religion. In fact the religion I belonged to as a boy I now know it is evil. So I agree with your writing, and it was a damn good one.

Namaste

Look Away Silence by Edward Patterson

Martin Powers wanted an ironing board for Christmas. Instead, he got . . . Matthew Kieler, a non-returnable gift, but a gift that kept on giving. A powerful tale of survival, compassion and unapologetic love in the time of AIDS.
