You like ships. You don't seem to be looking at the destinations. What you care about is the ships, and mine's the nicest.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

Oh, definitely. You wouldn't want the church ladies (who I picture dressed in flowered dresses, wearing hats) to freak out, after all.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

But doing communion with brownies, or cookies, or pie just seems...wrong.

Jesus can't be sweet?

Woe to the fucking wicked.

Jesus can be sweet. He just shouldn't be dessert.

Give me a minute and I'll come up with theological justification for that.

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…

That's funny, because I can come up with a justification as to why brownies are a perfectly cromulent dinner.

I accidentally ran into some while trying to de-bramble parts of the Yard of Reason this afternoon.

For which, once again, omg thank you. Plei is the garden & yardwork queen, peoples. Trust me on this.

some sort of random stoner church, where you had pot brownie communion, and then hung out talking about Jesus being way cool.

I would be all for this. Especially the pot brownie part, even if I haven't had them in years.

Skipping and poking head to post that, according to the Buffista Calendar, today is Cass' birthday.

Happy birthday, Cass! With lots of wishes for a great day and a wonderful year!

'we all walk this earth feeling we are frauds. The trick is to be grateful and hope the caper doesn't end any time soon"

"Eat, this is my body... and wow, is my hand really that large?"

Mostly lurking...

But doing communion with brownies, or cookies, or pie just seems...wrong.

One of the churches I went to ran out of communion bread one morning, and they had to run to the convenience store across the street for the last service. They ended up deciding on Lornadoodles, which just cracks me up.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

This conversation is funny. If church served pot brownies, I might even go.

I can see why any form of bread would be a more acceptable substitution for the wafer than any kind of dessert. Jesus said, "This bread is my body, take of it and eat," not "This brownie is like, totally my body, dudes!"

Seriously, though, if through the grace of God you can transubstantiate 'bread' it shouldn't matter what you use, because miracles is miracles.

Also in terms of contemporary cuisine, bread and wine were the humblest and commonest foodstuffs of their day -- the equivalent of today's coffee and donuts.
