Today's title is:
Running and Jumping and Standing Still, And Screaming All the Way
I’m like pissed off. I mean hopping steaming mad! Asldkbnopimnrsthklxch sdh jlj jklhs jkx bmbjh klgh kl;j klsdh <-That is me being so hopping steaming mad I hop up and down steaming mad on my keyboard.

Why am I hopping steaming mad? I just checked my e-mail that’s why.

Yeah now you know what I’m talking about.

I just have been informed that a Christian who I really respect has been forced to resign from a Christian place and I happen to know a bit about why he was forced to resign.

I don’t know all of the details, and I wouldn’t tell them if I did, but it has to do with confessing a weakness this person had and was struggling through.

I’m sick and tired of having to pretend I’m perfect when I’m a screw-up! That’s all the Christian community has ever been for most of us, with a few exceptions. If you are ever honest about not being perfect you get kicked out. It’s enough to drive someone insane and I happen to know someone intimately that I think this has done just that! Can’t a Christian be God damned normal?

This latest event has just solidified my impression that the whole show is just an act. There ain’t anything authentic about it. Christianity can have nothing to do with me because I can’t keep my act together 24-7 and every once and a while I just lose it and tell the truth about myself. Then they don’t know what to do with you.

What can I do? If they had let this dude stay in this place it would have been completely different. It would have been a message of hope to the rest of us fuck-ups out there. But they couldn’t do that.

Should I just leave the place too? This dude must need to more support then ever. What if everyone just left with him/her?

I need to resist this.

Or maybe Christianity just is resisting me, it will, however accept the “me” I pretend to be.

Puke.
