We attended noontime mass at Our Lady of Peace in Santa Clara, CA. The handsome priest was already at the fourth part of the rosary. The golden, sun-disk shaped Sacrament (most holy, oh, sacrament divine) object was held up for all to see and glorify and after one-half hour or so mass was done and said. I believe was supposed to have taken the damn host in my mouth as the priest held it in front of my pie hole a couple of seconds or so.
I sang as usual, loudly and followed the Latin tunes to `Our Father` in the red book and hummed to `Ave Maria` because the organist (funny word) didn’t announce where to find the damn lyrics. I supposed that the most devout attendees should know those lyrics by heart, which wasn’t where it wanted to be:
It’s the fictitious readings from the Bible, which is nothing more than a compilation of ancient writings by bloggers and probably installed in caves and other spooky places by those would-be time travelers, who are truly screwing up my time line(s) here and now.
I couldn’t swallow the interpretations on how and why religious believers MUST follow blindly and faithfully. But the priest was wise enough to mention in his first few sentences that we must use our judgment. He needs a warm blanket and steaming cup of hot coffee, metaphorically in reference to poor folks this cold season, which is false because the past few days have been wonderfully warm!
Perhaps `ET need to put an end to organized religion` once and for all. But the idiots who established the tried and true (and tax-exempt status) of Catholicism, Islam, Judaism, etc., will probably end up creating the church of ET and pals: – Get your free UFO T-shirt and crystal balls to hang on the rear view mirror of your cars! That sort of stuff one could find in religious gift shops worldwide.
