We are all broken
Now in all his occasional wonderful eloquence, Alex made a blog entry in which he discussed an experience he had at church. You can find that here. Then in further eloquence, Carl posted a blog entry in response to that which you can find here. He keeps saying it doesn’t make any sense, but it does. Trust me Carl, it does.
As those who know me will most likely know, Alex and I don’t share a common set of religious beliefs, which is another way of saying he’s one of Them, and I’m Not (but if you want to get right to the nitty gritty of it, he’s a Christian and I’m a Pagan Witch). So perhaps it is moderately imprudent to comment on Alex’s accounts of his religious experiences. Well tough, I don’t care, because there’s something that has to be said about Alex’s recent experience, Carl’s comments on said experience, and my own experiences.
