The Rev. Andy ABOLISH ICE McQuery

Did that floating hospital make it to Greenland yet to assist all those people suffering from free healthcare?

Meritocracy!

I came home from church on Sunday and went straight back to bed. I mean, church was fine, but the world has me 😵‍💫

Thank you! I only knew Mary Costa from the Moffo/Tucker Bohème. This was fun!

Timeline cleanse.

Our government is controlled by reckless, stupid, and cruel people.

Within my former parish there was a "Relevant Life Church," which I assume meant they preached how to get promotions, amass personal wealth, and be a good wife (mutually exclusive). I was like, I'm just going to preach the Incarnation and the Trinity, with a little Real Presence for fun.

Get rid of Medicaid, POOF! No more fraud. Genius plan, really.

Hi. I’m not super active on this site, but I’m taking a break from social media for Lent. See you after Easter.

Agreed! The Lectionary Page website has been updated to include the propers for every day of Lent. Huzzah!

In times of crisis, you must cope

Ooooohhhhhh

Wow, did I miss that memo

ChatGPT, how do I make a Saturday a Tuesday and also why

Star Wars (1977)
Gandhi (1982)
Amadeus (1984)

Whether it's Oberlin students asking for trigger warnings or ICE agents gunning down Americans, both sides have a trigger problem.

I hate capitalism

Great piece. Yes. And, many think art is supposed to be decorative or entertaining, evaluated on the basis of: do I like it, is it popular, is it profitable? (Or better, can I make money off someone else's work?) The idea that art shouldn't touch the political realm is nuts and ahistorical.

That unsettling moment when you suspect your cat studied under Pai Mei.

There is nothing wrong with border security. Perfectly reasonable to know who's coming and going, and why. EVERYTHING wrong with roving gangs of armed, masked, anonymous goons kidnapping people off the street (or from their homes, or their jobs) because they "look" like they don't "belong" here.

I confess I have not really considered how challenging it must be to be a billionaire in this environment. 😒

I recall the adult friend who remarked, “Oh, I didn’t know Noah’s Ark was a Bible story.”

I was pretty aesthetic in high school

Who would Jesus pepper spray?

DO YOU KNOW WHAT ART IS???

Maybe; and also see Amy Jill Levine’s exegesis about a rich person badgering the judiciary.

My own training/tradition is that stoles are removed for the foot-washing, but to see the Bishop of Rome in a deacon's stole says some very good things.

Fourteen hardy souls made it to Mass this morning for the Conversion of St Paul, including a 90+ something guy and a blind woman. I love my parish! Stay safe out there.

I lived and worked in Salem, OR during the pandemic a mile or so from the capitol and I remember the Proud Boys rallying with sidearms and AR-15s slung over their shoulders -- because of the "tyranny" of masks and social distancing. Assholes.

It is the sickest irony and I'm so mad.
