Christians are a strange bunch bless them....... on flicking on to one of my many dull and boring groups on facebook which happened to be the group for people who grew up in my childhood town of killingworth, this group was created so people can reminisce about the big concrete shithole when it used to be a more concretey shithole and lifeless thatcher britain ravaged town,happy days indeed.
And on there are photos of the old towers now demolished and many pictures of other things from the bygone era of this golden town.
There is also videos of a parade in 1988 which is around the time i was living there so i decided to have a peek, why not ?you hear yourself say, the parade was a myriad of different trucks and floats vehicles of all manner designed to represent that particular school or buisness, or social enterprise ,and twas all very jolly, innocent and blue peterish.
And a prime example of this was the jolly christians rolling into view on a big yellow topless bus, with a big banner reading " jesus, hes just the ticket" like some offish party political broadcast to get him re-elected, it was very slick il give the god squad that, all the elements were there, they were on a bus and the slogan to be burned into our sinning brains was "jesus hes just the ticket" it works as a concept on all levels , being as it only has one level to work on, is very much splitting hairs, it works i concur.
But if we look at this as if trying to convert people to faith, is like a political election battle, then all i see is that "god" in return for your vote is offering free super saver bus passes, this i feel appeals primarily to the old and infirm (what does infirm mean? i imagine it to be the possibility you might shit your trolleys without warning) but i do see where gods going with this he feels he neednt waste his time on the sinning youth he wants to get the coffin dodgers before they get sent downstairs where its warm.
I mean lets face it being a cute cuddly old cunt in 20 coats and a wooly hat does not mean your a shoe in for the jesus fest upstairs does it?, id love to see the look on some of their squashed faces as they die and go towards a beautiful light a soothing light relatives there to greet them only for a big shutter to come down and a kamikaze water park slide appears beneath with a strange red glow at the bottom , with them whining "hold on you cant send me down there im an nice old lady i ve been pretty good in my life" to which the devil replies" not good enough grandma so shut it and when you hit the bottom pick up the shovel and put those leather hotpants on daddy will be down soon theres another 4 coaches worth of you cunts coming its like a saga holiday in turkey down there".
So God although i admire you alistair campbell style spin doctoring, i feel you should be trying to appeal to the youth too beforeits too late and you lose them forever, because the way i see it is, if i have a choice between spending eternity with a shit load ofnaughty penioners, in hot pants digging holes in magma chambers or with you and the promise of nothing in particular but free bus travel i know which one im choosing ,do me a favour.
tell you what throw in an ipod and you got a deal.
