I was born the son of a carpenter...GO figure right...
I went the route as a child in strict 60's Roman Catholic Sicilian Father Irish English mother. Religion never made sense to me.As a child we had Churches with a big cross with JAHEEESUS on it...And we had other statues of mary holding lil baby child Jaheeesus .
We had a scene of women all around at the feet of Jaheeesus while hanging there on the group W cross...(A lil Arlo Guthrie Joke for the hippies out there).
And then one day you're shuffled off to a class room on sundaay morning while your parents go off to church.And this nun is reading from "THE BOOK"
and she reads And Moses says yall can't be maki'n false Idols .... So they destroyed the idol.
And she asked if anyone knows of any idols that people worship.And she picked me..... We i asked if we are not supposed to make idol why do we have them in the church and she blew a gasket. Shortly after that I had enough with the whole indoctrination process.I would go to church and it was always the same thing.DEPENDING on which time of year you were going. The same service for each week of the year with guys ripping my piggy bank off evey week waalking around with collection baskets.CAUSE HEY it takes a lot of money for Jaheesus to make the trip back....
And the services were so ...The priest walks in yah i know but its not a joke....The altar boyz walk in a little funny .Then the organist finally stops that horrible muisic.
And its SIT,Kneel.Read a section, stand, Kneel ,Sit,
Stand Turn to the person or your right in fellowship and shake dah hand man......
Then you get to symbolically eat the body of Jaheesus and drink of his blod WTF IS THIS SHIT. SO YAH I think the rant About organised crime errr I mean religion is done.
I am a 57 year old man originally from the Boston area.
I am widowed 2.5 years now and running strong.
Being a 1960 model year human I do have some wear and tear but in my defense I did like to jump out of perfectly good planes for fun.and oh so many other things.
Living now in the Saint Pete , Florida area has been interesting.I am somewhat a sarcastic funny person.
If you take offense to my sarcasm you didnt get it.
I write poetry and have since I was 15.
I am published in the library of congress.
Really no big deal but I am proud of that one thing.
If you want to know more hit me off the side of the head with a brick.When I die Make sure they resusitate me so I can end all this if there is a god shit for every one once and for all LOL I'll drag Jaheesus back with me if he does exist.Which of course we know he don't
Now Lil grey men in flying mahines. thats for another post.
