First off,
I am NOT a Christian.
I don’t EVEN know what that means?
I haven’t sold everything,
I know and love many Buddhists,
I don’t live my life selflessly.
I don’t.
I love being RICHARD N. SHIT!
I CAN say I am a Grantian.
It feels like fraud
to even imagine saying
i am a Christian.
Jesus (Hussein) Christ was the Christian.
I’m a Grantian.
Obbbbbviousssssly,
I am obsessed with
the symbols of what people
believe concerning religion,
society, and politics.
But!
This does not mean
that I am going to live
like my parents lived,
or their parents lived,
or Jesus, John, Mark, or Matthew lived.
Today.
in my world,
with my experiences,
with cars, cellphones, and computers,
I have to live my life
in THIS reality.
I respect how “they say”
that Jesus lived his life,
I’m obsessed actually.
He was a cool guy.
I love, love, love HIS HAIR!
I loved what he stood for,
I loved who he befriended.
He was heart incarnate.
Simple.
My problem is having anything
between me
and what “they” call God.
This seems blasphemous.
Why would anyone want
anything less than
a Direct Connection
with their “God”?
WHHHHHYYYYY?
As for me,
Grant Henry aka Sister Louisa,
I am going
to live as truthfully as I can,
I’m gonna use the word “fuck” when appropriate,
I’m gonna be as kind as I can,
be a good steward of the gifts I’ve been given,
give back what i can,
within the reality
I find myself living.
Jesus?
He told the truth.
He stood for something.
He wasn’t ashamed of who he hung out with.
He didn’t give a shit
what anyone thought.
I can do these things,
in my own way,
but I can’t,
truthfully,
say I’m a Christian.
