Lighten up! One recent morning I awoke with this strange amusing scenario in my mind: Jesus and a young guy sitting on bar stools, having a blunt conversation of sorts—dull, obvious, crucial, pedestrian, healing, and bloody good theology.
Guy: All creatures are created equal.
Jesus: Duh
Guy: Creator loves all equally.
Jesus: Duh
Guy: Mosquitoes? The grass? Women? Trans? Any color?
Jesus: Duh
Guy: You yourself. You aren’t the ONLY Son, ONLY child of Divine Creator.
Jesus: Duh
Guy: You’ll be here tomorrow. Always. I’ll order Ginger Ale then.
Jesus: Duh
Neither douse your sorrows nor squelch your joys. All that has breath and life, rise and shout HALLELUJAH to shine your praises— anyhow/always/all ways.
