13 December 2013. It’s FRIDAY THE THIRTEENTH! SHUDDER!

______________________________

It’s Friday the Thirteenth! Lions, and Tigers, and Bears, oh, my! People who believe that Friday the Thirteenth (or the number “13“, in general) is bad or unlucky are not only stupid, they’re out of step with the Church, which teaches us that such lunacy isn’t fit for Christians. That goes for such whimsies as “666“, Young Earth Creationism, Young Eldership, Homeschooling, Single Issue Politics, and Phariseeism, too. We should shut up those who think that they speak in Christ‘s Name, but who only spout their own idiosyncratic fancies. As for me, I’m still working on decency… I’m no role model or exemplar. Nevertheless, I’ll not stand for Young Eldership… it’s the most evil thing out there (it’s particularly dangerous as it’s so “religious” and “pious”… it entraps most Anglo converts easily, I’m afraid).

Smile! It’s just another day, that’s all that it is. Aren’t you glad that Our Lord Christ delivered us from such shit? I am… are you?

How many of you out there have triskaidekaphobia, or its cousins paraskevidekatriaphobia or friggatriskaidekaphobia? NO! I’m not making these up… it’s for real (the terms, not the fear). Your intrepid editor says to fill a shot glass with your fave adult beverage and chug it down. Afterwards, shout out a heartfelt, “Fuck all superstition!” Repeat as often as necessary. I take no responsibility for what happens if you happen to take my advice too… ENTHUSIASTICALLY. You’re on your own…
