An Open Letter, October 19th, 2004

This election is stressing me out.

I imagine this is because a group of Catholic bishops, the old white men who (if I remember the 80's 90's and 00's correctly) stood by while their priests raped little boys, are telling parishioners that if they don't vote correctly, they will have to go to confession to be absolved of their sin. The defining issues for these chatty pedophiles are stem cell research and abortion and gay marriage. In fact, some of them are trying to ex-communicate one of the presidential candidates (the Catholic one). This same Catholic Church, which is against the death penalty, has virtually endorsed another presidential candidate who executed 62 people in Texas.

Jesus' followers have grown so insane that Jesus himself now has to be held accountable.

An open letter to Jesus Christ from Laurie Kilmartin.

Hey Jesus,
You lazy sack of shit. How bout you slide off that throne where you sit next to your bored daddy, and clean up the mess your death created? Is this how you wanted it all to work out? Packs of crusading maniacs invoking your name whenever a shaking crip in a wheelchair proclaims a desire to walk? Crucifix wielding child molesters telling their sheep how to vote? If that wasn't your intention, then you need to come down from high and sayeth unto them, "Shut the Fuck Up." Yes, Jesus, you have to swear. The time for cheek turning has passed. We're all getting fucked in the ass now, and it's your fault. Either you were too ambiguous, or the gospels are hearsay or maybe everyone needs to be reminded that you ran with prostitutes and homosexuals, and you were killed by an angry mob that was enforcing the death penalty.

Love, Laurie
