Mother Dearest



Mommie Dearest: The Pope beatifies Mother Teresa, a fanatic, a fundamentalist & a fraud. (Christopher Hitchens)

Insh'Allâhah someone else will pick up on this. I've been lecturing everyone I can duct-tape down about what an awful person, what a self-indulgent, twisted, crazy Christianazi "mother" Teresa was & how outrageous it is that the Church is looking to canonise her twisted ass.

"Mother"? Closer to "mater", as in the psychotic, sexually-twisted, manipulative Honoured Matres from Dune. I'd bring up the Bene Gesserit but they are self-aware, whereas deranged Matres like Teresa don't even know how upfucked they are. Like JP's other recent beatification of the founder of that monstrous perversion of religion, Opus Dei, the beatification of Honoured Mater Teresa is an insult to religion.

It's no surprise, in one sense. Good old Papa JP has systemically set back the Church's policies to a new kind of fundamentalism not seen since the office of Inquisition was enabled. Think I'm kidding? Then you need to pick up a book, sweetheart, & read a little fucking history. Read a theologian's view of the Pope's insane vision of the Virgin, a vision that just underlines his nasty, repressed gynophobia.

That bitch is so afraid of the sweet wetness; emilys are not real to those come-drenched Attises; they are fucking statues on a pedastal. Like serial killers, they see filth in real women and pure white fleshless spirit in Mary.

You think Mary never had a yeast infection? You think she ascended into Heaven? You think she didn't masturbate, menstruate & fart - or perhaps that giving birth to a sacred baby made her stop being the same kind of human being as everyone else?

Purity and impurity are an illusion. Male and female are conditions and creations. Jesus had to wash his dick and wipe his ass, god or not. Henrys jerk off, holy or not. It's no different than eating or drinking, which they all do as well. And when we die, we rot. Our host bacteria devour us from within.

Maybe Christ rose from the dead; I won't quibble that level of theological discussion because I think it's a fair assumption of faith to accept Christianity. To paraphrase Heinlein, I have to respect your religion, but that doesn't mean I can't think it's stupid. But to reject the very basic tenets of that faith and make Mary Coredemptrix: are you fucking kidding?

And that's exactly what the Pap is doing. He's reducing thousands of years of religion to the fundamentalist notions of a crazy idiot predecessor of his who lived in the late 1800s. He beatifies those who spit on the poor and those who praise suffering and poverty as just.

Fuck that, fuck you & fuck the pope. And you can quote that. Fucking bloody well die already, you stupid wanker.
