The Making of the Tea, and Falun Dafa Zombies!

I had to post on the rather funny thing going on in my kitchen. Amalia and Melanie were improvising an operatic recit on the topic of cleaning a cabinet, and then, selecting and making tea. Amalia jumped right in and was singing along.

So I logged on to the edit page and thought "maybe I should delete some spam comments" and found some laugh-riots from one of the zombies of Falun Dafa/Falu Gong. I remember the first time I saw their Scientology on Tai Chi act, they had these goofy signs reading "Falun Gong is Good!" The last time I saw them they had an upgrade and said "Falun Gong is Great!"

No. Falun Gong is Bullshit. Pure and Simple. Eastern Scientologists. They make Mormons look smart. There, that was your Ecumenical moment for the day. Savor it. Enjoy it.

I know that I am going to get one of my whiner commenters now, to say "oh that is not charitable" and all that hogwash. It is not charitable to sit grinning at a Satanic Cult as it pretends to be a force for good.

Bah!

Anyway, have a great Fourteenth Day of Christmas! Unless you got rid of your tree before the 1st. Communist! Protestant! Don't get me started on the absurdity of celebrating the Epiphany on the 8th. They don't do that in Rome, so they shouldn't here!

On the fourteenth day of Christmas my true love gave to me... fourteen silly episcopal functionaries sitting around ignoring real problems and doing things like killing the whole Christmas season thing by playing around with the date of Epiphany, thirteen wretched Catholic in Name Only Colleges hiring quacks like Starhawk, etc.

Langsam, Wozzeck, Langsam!

Around these parts, we'll probably remove the Nativity decorations around the time of the Feast of the Presentation of our Lord. Again, probably due more to sloth than devotion, but when your wife is recovering from cancer, you do things when you can do them.

And do you wacky Latins move Candlemas to the nearest Sunday also? Just curious.

Loved the ecumenical moment. You are truly a man of my own spleen.

my tree is still up but that is more a function of choosing to do other things with my time.
