There’s a big party going on around the world. People are having a good time making a mockery of the whole rapture debacle, and I admit - some of it is pretty humorous and all.
And then I saw this.
And I kinda laughed inside a little. And then I stopped, staring at the bit of the strip with the burning Christians.
And I felt something curl up and die inside me, like… I was doing something wrong for believing that there was a second coming. That I should abandon my beliefs, the trust I place in something and someone that a lot of people consider to be an absolute joke and mockery of everything good - Jesus.
A lot of people, except me and maybe a few other people, do think that this whole Jesus thing is one of the most laughable things on the face of the planet. But because some of these people are my friends, I have to suck it up and keep on going.
And it’s fine, I’ll be ok by tomorrow. Because people are just out to have a good laugh, and that’s ok.
Right?
