Indian activist #Edamaruku, exiled in #Finland, arrested in #Poland.
Edamaruku, a defender of secular values, gained international attention when #BBC reported how he travelled from village to village, demonstrating to viewers how the "miraculous feats" of famous gurus and holy men were nonsense.
He was charged with #blasphemy after angering the #Catholic #Church in India by revealing that water dripping from a crucifix was actually sewage water, not sign of a miracle.
Unction
A #poem in two parts
—
i.
A life of chronic sickness
both of body and of mind.
I am thirsting for some witness
to let my soul unwind.
All alone in a house
of prayerful solitude,
a baptistery to douse
my inner thirsty mood.
Lord, you have brought blessings to all mankind,
— bring us to share your concern for the good of all.
Lord, create a new spirit in us.
This is suicide. Don't negotiate with the FOOL, don't arm yourself against the FOOL, he is our God.
Ratet mal, wer heute WIEDER vor mir in der Schlange zum #Beichtsakrament war.

Certainly we must do whatever we can to reduce suffering: to avoid as far as possible the suffering of the innocent; to soothe pain; to give assistance in overcoming mental suffering. These are obligations both in justice and in love, and they are included among the fundamental requirements of the Christian life and every truly human life.

Block in your country companies that surrender to the FOOL

"Mutter, Du bist 71 Jahre alt. Ziehen wir den Bumms jetzt echt noch durch?"
"Ich hab schon den halben Reiseführer auswendig intus, Jo. Nach was siehts denn aus?"
Orrrrrrrrrrrr.
