Artists occasionally color outside the lines... .. there's no coloring in an evangelical bubble world however....
There's no coloring because there's no color. Everything in the evangelical world is black and white.
In fact.. there's a lot you can't do in a bubble world. You can't ask too many questions. You can't drink.. smoke.. or cuss.. (just the top 3 of an ongoing list).... And you sure as Hell can never ever.. for any reason.. ever admit you doubt.
That said.. its hard to be real in a bubble world. And I've always needed my reality to be more real than what's been allowed. So thats why I had to go.
Don't get me wrong.. It's not that I don't believe in anything.
People who believe in nothing are Nihilists... and while... Nihilists seem cool dropping ferrets in bathwater.. Or pissing on a rug.
"Did I urinate on your rug Mr Lebowski?"
They've never been a go to group for optimism...
Sometimes you gotta break the rules to keep the rules (Zen). And Underneath the panic and angst.. and the Breaking of rules......rolling on Shabbos has always been about optimism for me...
..driving as if there's something out there is a faith of it's own.... |
