A Virtual Church

Don't act as if we didn't see it

Today

Come on, Pete. Do you think we are blind and stupid? Isn’t that your job?

What kind of delusion does this MAGA lot live in? Habitation of silliness abounds. From Botox Noem to blonde Barbie Leavitt, we are not being governed by mature people who take democracy seriously.

The covert operation of Caribbean homicide was carried out under no cloak. It was unclassified and unclassy to say the least. We all saw it. Your denial is yet more stupidity!

Holy freaking cow!!!  Is this who we are becoming?

The Advent season calls us to a different way of being in the world. Repeat the words… Hope, Peace, Joy, and Love. Can you say it with me boys and girls?

Being kind and generous, giving a hand up to a sojourner who might have lost his way - these are the ways we are called to live this Holy season.

Reels on YouTube are a certifiable waste of time. They show the stupidity of greedy people, filled with animus and ugliness. There are very few puppies and kittens. There are even fewer generous and kind people. You must go to the comments to even see the end of the story. Reading more is a good endeavor. Unlock the mysteries of the culture in the comments below the headlines. Even then the story is often incomplete.

I am not a Scrooge. I love the holiday season. Tree is up early. Candles in the windows are on. Amazon is on the job.

I will make Rice Krispie treats, peanut brittle, and a couple of kinds of cookies.

Nothing we do will fill the hole of our grandson Hart’s death. We pick ourselves up, smooth our clothes and blot our eyes.

Whether we are ready or not, Christ will come. A sky will break open and God will announce his Beloved Son.

I am an old woman. Never in my years have I seen the world as worn and weary as it is today.

What I know in my heart is that if we can find our way back to Jesus, we will find our way home.
