Reverb 10: Community
7 Dec
More from Reverb 10, which is great at helping me think inwardly and respond outwardly.
Today’s prompt: Community. Where have you discovered community, online or otherwise, in 2010? What community would you like to join, create or more deeply connect with in 2011?
In 2010 we joined a church! I don’t write about religion often here because it makes people uncomfortable and that makes me uncomfortable and I don’t want that. And most religious views on the Internet fall into 2 categories:
>> 1) The image of Jesus on my tire treads told me to hate you
>> 2) You Christians have the intellectual potential of an amoeba and that’s why I’m better than you. FSM ftw!
But I was baptised Catholic and remained a Christian once I parted ways with Vatican City. And while I’m not following the proper Christian lifestyle at the moment (shifty eyes) that’s where my soul calls home. Faith doesn’t have to make sense. That’s why it’s faith.
We went on a Church Search last year and stumbled into an Episcopalian church with a giant “No Perfect People Allowed” sign staked into the lawn. But that’s a bit of a fib, because the people there are perfect for me. (I’d say “us” but I don’t like speaking for WM on my own blog. But he goes every week too.)
In 2011, I’d like to join the community of multi-million dollar lottery winners.
