Well, we were "ejected" from the Church almost as soon as we crossed the threshold yesterday evening.
Perhaps it was because my same sex friends decided to go as Brides and requested that they renew their vows (LOL), or, because we had a change of "wardrobe" for a certain non-LGBTQI member of the and he went decked out as Good Old J. C. himself, complete with a wig, theatrical make- whip marks, simulated nail , etc, etc, and rattling a bag containing half a dozen old and rusty nails that were orginally used as spikes ( approx. 5 inches long) in the local mines to fix lengths of timber framings to keep the rock-faces in place.
Plus the numerous and very varied other costume outfits worn by our person strong "congregation" which included a pair of " Mary's " expressing their deep affection for each by embracing, holding hands and kissing very romantically as they felt the need/urge.
Oh, and a Gay couple who came attired as Roman Soldiers as well and improtually sang the song " IF I had a Hammer" in perfect harmony.
No sense of humour or fun these poor, deprived Christfools, so having been given the "Royal Order of the Boot" and told to leave or the Police would called, shock of shocks, stepped of the , females of course, dressed as Police Officers and joyfully waving their REAL Police Credentials.
To save the Pastor/Priest or what ever the dopey looking Dweeb chooses to call himself from having a hissy fit, we departed the scene and got ready for the " party of parties" at the next venue, my place with its soon to arrive Hymn and Psalm singing mob of Jesus sheeple.
The "party" was intended to be held within the boundaries of my property began in earnest with a great and varied choice of music playing and, I estimated, about 70-80% of the neighborhood actually asking, very nicely, whilst carrying "offerings" as well ( legal ones btw) if they could join the party.
Musical tastes varied but the main theme was very much ANYTHING and EVERYTHING that could counteract/disrupt the religious garbage from the house next door to mine from further polluting the atmosphere.
Of course there was plenty of ABBA played, both albums by Meatloaf, especially the likes of " Bat out of Hell," that got requested repeatedly, some Black Sabbath, Slade and almost countless other groups and solo singers as well.
At approx. 7.30-7.40 p.m. the Police arrived as they had been called by the Evangelfool and crowd because, quote, "We were disturbing the Peace and Quiet of their Evening of Celebration of the Death and Resurrection of the Lord Jesus."
One Officer ventured in to the Hymn singers and informed them that "our party was behaving quite within the Law and they could and would do NOTHING because the noise limits were not being broken and that there were no DRUGS or unseemly activities, etc, going on, the was NO open and easily spreadable fire burning at our party as there was at the Psalm singer party ( they were ORDERED to extinguish their rather large fire btw, and because there were children on the premises the Hosts and Attendees should have had more sense that to allow the consumption of alcoholic beverages at the gathering and that a mobile RBT unit WILL touring past this premise at very regular intervals and SHALL be Breath Testing Party Goers as they depart."
Without being asked or it even being mentioned the 2 Police Officers then asked could they avail themselves of either a cup of Coffee or something cold to drink and sit for a while and enjoy the company and music.
I guess it was mainly due to there being 2 of their Workmates in attendance already perhaps.
Hopefully a little AC/DC ... HIGHWAY TO HELL ... FOOK EM ALL
Fantastic fight back. Do everything legally and then them sit and spin, they were going to make you endure their cult music so fight back.
Although I do have to say that the Abba would have driven me insane I really don't like their music.
Normally I'm NOT a fan of ABBA either, but needs must then one can grin and bear it and it WAS for a good cause as well, the Imaginary War Against all this Christian became a reality for a few short hours and We, the Atheist score a few home runs one might say.
@Betty Hey I just supplied and operated the Sound System, they supplied 98% of the cds and got me to put them n the player.
Oh, I have to own up that we DID use my audio only copy of Life of Brian and played few of the very anti-religious tunes recorded by Kevin Bloody Wilson as well.
IF you can get a hold of his "works" over your way, they are well it for the laughs and belly jiggles they give when you listen.
@Betty Try listening to " Living Next Door to Alan" or it could be alternative title of " Living Next Door to Bondy."
The one that the most replays the other fun evening was his one about various historical events and the bit that cracked everyone up was the bit about the Pope getting shot.
Sounds like a great time!
Congratulations on the joyful ruckus.
Sounds like a great gathering of really fun people! Wish I could have attended!!
Me too. Sounded like a great party.
I think someone won the battle of the tunes as well as having a most excellent party. Good on you and you must be the most popular host of the evening.
You should write a guide...How to win a war by playing within the rules.
It seems that SOMEHOW I got involved in helping to plan a similar event to be held at Xmas as well, but this we intend to HIRE a Church Hall as a kind of poke in the religious eye to the Godster Communities.
@Triphid...and be merry in your own way without the x-mas with a fun and enjoyable crowd
Oh, perhaps you annoyed those of the locals who are cognitively deficient?
Brainwashed most likely. I wonder if they used bleach to killed all the intellectual brain cells. lol
No it was a truly great evening, NO alcohol consumed at all, everyone got along extremely well, except the Evangelfool and his group of Godnuts that is.
According to what we heard, they closed down their "Worship Session" about 20 minutes after the Police Officer visited them and then joined his work partner in my home for a well deserved rest and a cold drink.
