Latest Unitarian Universalist Miracle

A. Unabashed Pacifist:

The way forward leads only to peace.

B. Unabashed Christian:

Holy One,

Don’t get me wrong, I’m wild about this place.
No buts.
Don’t get me wrong, I love Earth.
Just a couple of buts.
Don’t get me wrong, I love Jesus.
No buts.
Don’t get me wrong, I love people.
Just some occasional buts.
Don’t get me wrong, I love my life.
No buts.
Don’t get me wrong, I love my religious community.
Just a few minor buts.
Don’t get me wrong, I love my self.
Just as I am.
Don’t get me wrong, I love my family.
Just – no, it doesn’t matter.
Don’t get me wrong, I love you.
Just – because you don’t do conditional love.
Amen

C. Un-quoting Jesus:

“Hey, Judas, that’s no way to say goodbye.”

[Similar, perhaps, but not what He said to Judas in the garden.]
