“I am the world crier, & this is my dangerous career… I am the one to call your bluff, & this is my climate.” —Kenneth Patchen (1911-1972)
Religion has become ever more segmented, with requirements for “membership” ever more stringent. What would Jesus do has become irrelevant in the face of dogmatic politicians. I long ago gave up on organized religions; at a time when we need guidance and compassion the most, we’re served up with political statements and dogma from the pulpit. The money changers need to be pushed out of todays churches.
