We believe the scripture is the final truth and authority concerning all matters of morality
If they believe that then I want to know when the fuck they're gonna stop wearing clothes made of blended fabrics.
Every planet has its own weird customs. About a year before we met, I spent six weeks on a moon where the principal form of recreation was juggling geese. My hand to God. Baby geese. Goslings. They were juggled.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

What is even happening?
They require solitary confinement and the wearing of socks with sandals.Okay. Now I'm outraged.

I look more rad than Lutheranism
I'm sure they do lots of good stuff too.

Not just solitary confinement, but for the first 2 days of the program (and possibly longer, depending on the participant's attitude, I suppose), the participant is literally not allowed to speak. To anyone. Including family.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

Yerp. And even after that is never allowed to discuss with anyone what goes on in their sessions, which to me = distinctly culty, all snark about the socks aside.

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.
So, did Jesus wear socks with his sandals?

I'm not saying they do enough good stuff to balance out that program.

Of course. Where else did he get the socks for his sock puppet routines?

Ann, that's a ferret.
Actually, I'm sure they do lots of good stuff too.
I've seen too many statistics on the suicide rate among gay teens to sign on to that.

Leif won't wear sandals without socks. I didn't realize it was a religous thing, I thought it was just a three-year old thing.
