i am done waiting

i am done waiting for the keystone cops to assemble themselves, a thing they could do right quick when they were racing around to humiliate and ostracize the victim of the assault because "we have to follow the pastor no matter what she says because she's our spiritual leader!"

jesus. h. christ.

if the pastor wanted commit spiritual abuse and discrimination and leave assault victims open to predation IN THE CHURCH BUILDING and tell lies on top of it, would you still... oh, wait. nevermind. that happened.



we're irrelevant and useless in the church
we're irrelevant and useless in the church
and we stoop by our volition to archaic superstition
we're irrelevant and useless in the church.


the bottom line is that wednesday is ash wednesday. you can go to service and have the prideful pastor impose ashes on your foreheads, but as long as i'm outside with my trombone you will need to think about which of your sins you are not really asking forgiveness for, you are not really atoning for because you have not made them right. you have not fixed what you broke. you have not welcomed those you have hurt. you haven't even said "sorry" so when you go and stand before your imaginary friend and ask to be forgiven the sins you confess, i'm going to be out on the corner calling bullshit.

we're back to forty days, forty protests.

forever and ever, amen.
