It’s amazing what you can learn from “the nation”’s favourite drug. After watching some of the Today Show and then a little news from the WTO ministerial on a mexican news network, I switched to an unnamed network to see the familiar sight of a preacher in full flow.
It’s amazing what you can learn. Today I discovered that I am, in fact, a worshipper of Ba’al. You see, from time to time I’ve been known to slip the odd feminine pronoun into discussions of God. But now I have been convicted. I have discovered that that is a sure sign of just one thing: Ba’al worship.
I can’t remember any blood sacrifices in my near past. In fact, I don’t recall taking part in any rituals of any sort in the ancient near-east. Perhaps I’m missing a few memories. Perhaps the drinking and associated activities which presumably accompanied such rituals are to blame.
Still, it’s good to know. Amazing.
