Jesus Goes to Washington
A picture. George Bush, face scrunched up, hands gripped together, praying to his god. This picture made millions of Americans comfortable. “Ah. A praying man. A good Christian. He’ll keep us safe from the fags and heathens. He stands for our ‘values’.”
“But when you pray, go to your inner room, close the door and pray to your father in secret.”–Jesus
And they elected him to hasten the end, to start holy wars and bring on revelation. Praise his name.
“Blessed are the peacemakers, for they will be called children of god.”–Jesus also.
But Christianity isn’t about Jesus anymore, it’s about money. It’s always been about money, about capitalism, about the rich keeping their money and the poor waiting for their reward in heaven.
I wish Jesus was coming back. He’d be one table tossing motherfucker. And then Bush would execute that Arab turrist to keep America safe. And America will rejoice and pray.
