Perhaps you're upset about the crew of wealthy, MillSoc celebrity degenerates mocking the Church at the Met Gala. So here's something to put it all right, a beautiful Bear Creed by Sarah Moon.
It goes like this:
God Our Mother Bear
I believe in God, our Mother Bear, source of all being.
Solidarity Against Empire
I believe in Jesus Christ, God’s wisdom made flesh,along with Sophia, the church, and all that live in wisdom. Born of the bad-ass womanist liberation theologian, Mary, suffered under the systems of oppression of this world, was crucified, died, and was buried,forever joining in solidarity with those murdered by Empire.
Bad Bear
On the third day, the women declared him risen;signifying God’s “No” to oppression.Jesus points to God our Mother Bear,who works in this world, calling for justice for the poor and oppressed.
Happy Bear
I believe in Sophia Spirit, Christ’s body, the church,the communion of saints,the grace to reject this world’s systems, hope for justice in the future, and renewed life everlasting. Amen.
Perhaps you think this is some kind of joke. Hey, don't shoot the messenger.
God bless,
LSP
Noooooooooooooooooooo!!!!!!!!!
ReplyDeleteAdrienne, I've never thought of the Virgin Mary as a "badass womanist liberation theologian" before.
DeleteIsn't that somehow based on the "care bear" cartoon/stuffed animal line? It certainly sounds cartoonish as do the lesbian dancers. Come to think of it, that display at the Met was cartoonish as well. I prefer the roadrunner/coyote cartoons, that attest to the superiority of ACME products. But that's just me. It doesn't mean that I worship ACME - or the coyote - or the roadrunner.
ReplyDeleteWhen religious faith is turned into entertainment (in the hopes of generating more cash), it becomes clownish. There are a lot of people who enjoy the clownish program. But it has nothing to do with faith in Jesus Christ.
The religion of the cartoon rainbow bear? Good point, LL.
DeleteThe cartoon bears sit in solidarity against Empire, on their cake.
Bad bears.
What the....? That one sure has me shaking my head. Hey LL! Do you know if ACME has some kind of product to deal with this?
ReplyDeleteYou don't even have to make it up, Jim.
DeleteJim, you order an ACME anvil (from Amazon), tie it to the foot of the leader of the false host surreptitiously (sub rosa) and then kick the anvil over the side of a cliff. It's a sure winner!
ReplyDeleteLL, you're a solutions provider. No doubt about it.
DeleteThe old anvil over the cliff trick. Works every time.
ReplyDeleteJim, ACME's got everything. Much like Buckee's, they have wolfbane, silver bullets, crucifixes, Holy water, wooden stakes, whatever you need to put an end to this evil.
ReplyDeleteIf you have the cash, that is. Plus tax.
For the life of me I can't understand why mainstream Christianity keeps losing followers!
ReplyDeleteThanks Fredd. One stop shopping can be convenient.
ReplyDeleteWeird, isn't it, Infidel.
ReplyDeleteIt's certainly not cheap, Fredd. But sometimes you have to spend money to make money; I've not been very successful at that but they say it's true.
ReplyDeleteJim, like LL, Fredd's a solutions provider!
ReplyDeleteEh?
ReplyDeleteIt's all true and then some, Lukeya.
