Okay, so it's election day. I have been trying to stay away from politics (not sure I will keep that up), but why is it that the more fundamentalist a religion is, the more misogynist it is?
I can't escape the long black skeletal reach of The Church the moment I so much as think this guy's name. The whole incense-laden candle-lit horror of the liturgy hidden in it.
I like Holier Than Cow. Santorum's awful, but I try to keep his awfulness his own and separate and apart from any other awfulness of others (the Church's, for instance), which I prefer to consider on a case-by-case basis. I can think more clearly that way, get through the day, make and keep friends, etc. Curtis
I mean, the fact (according to yesterday's NY Times) that the White House is organizing a prayer vigil to take place in front of the US Supreme Court during the Court's session considering the constitutionality of Obamacare (coupled with the fact that this does not trouble the times) is every bit as troubling as Santorum:
Nin Andrews is the author of 5 full collections of poetry and 6 chapbooks. She is also the editor of a book of translations of the Belgian poet, Henri Michaux. She keeps a literary blog and a blog of environmental comics.
