I was reading the gospel according to Mark last night and thought,
Hey, I know the soundtrack to this story:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KsksSWOx ... re=related

A little cosmic music
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MpBGhnCk ... re=related

Now some bizarre savior behavior

Jesus is generally a bit pissy through out Mark
He definitely has that whole
My poop has no foul aroma attitude
So he wakes up one morning
Maybe he had turned a little too much water into wine the night before
maybe Mary was bitchy because too many chicks were grabbing the him of his garment
after all, he is living the life of a poverty stricken rock star
great multitudes are ever present, touching him, trying for a lock of hair
it's a bitch being the chosen one
Some even called him Dylan and said
where are we going next
so he is a bit pissy and hungry
so he sees a fig tree with leaves
He is like hey I could use a fig right now
goes over to the tree and looks
the savior just loses it
There are no figs
I am the chosen one
and this poor dumb tree is out of season
may you always be barren and wither and die
this tree is doing nothing to nobody
put on some leaves and working on his best fig moves
you know, he is looking forward to getting down and putting on some fruit
along comes this scraggly looking cat who gets pissed off and kills him, dead
the tree withered before the power of the chosen one

does that make any sense to anybody?

of course it is interpreted (all these things have to be interpreted)
it is interpreted that Jesus has power (indisputable power) over nature

now, the dude has been walking around healing lepers,
making the blind see and generally raising the dead and dying

SO HE HAD TO KILL A POOR LITTLE TREE TO PROVE HE HAS POWER OVER NATURE?

You see the religious among us just missed this one!

This is Jesus, numero uno, is it god or is it memorex
saying right there in his very first gospel

he is saying (this is just an interpretation now)

screw nature, life and this planet are all a delusion in god's eyes
instead of reaping the land, rape the land
burn it's resources and pollute it's air
if you are hungry, make it wither away

Now look at the alternative.
Jesus could have been noble with nature
as god had with man and said
be fruitful and multiply
Jesus has power and influence over nature
instead of shifting time to the point where the tree is dead and withers
he could have shifted a season and had the tree put on some fruit
I mean really, he is Jesus

He could have been

Hey tree, what up? I could use a fig, a nice juicy fig, mind if I help you whoop some up real quick?

Instead he was

what the hell you mean not having fruit waiting for me
you little son o bitch, away with your leaves
you gonna die!

That seems an angry war like attitude to me.

Then again, who am i to question

THE PRINCE OF PEACE PEACE PEACE peace peace peace (echo and fade)

(I saw this performed the other night by Marin and the Baltimore Symphony
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7acCkkcMQCs
it was really good)



i read this somewhere recently:
"philosophy is questions that may never be answered. religion is answers that may never be questioned."

a side note...i clicked on that music link up there at the beginning of the post (the cosmic music)...started reading through story bits together with the music...wandered off in my head a little, thinking about what i was reading, go back to reading more...and arrived at the finish of the story and the music piece at the same time

just wasn't expecting it to be so well timed

It is all about legumes and not figs.
Everbody knows those christians hate fruits
I guess the fig is a fruit (scratchin' head)
They want a constitutional amendment
That says in this land of liberty
Fruits were not created equal
and have no inalienable rights
but Jesus never did nothin to no bean!
never made the bean vine wither

Just a question for those of you who know such stuff:

is a Jesus fart a sacred fart that should be captured in a jar?

wouldn't that be a relic!

we have one hermetically sealed jar containing one wall paper removing el stinko grande Jesus fart!
picture the grand wazoo holding it up and venerating it in front of the multitudes

think of it
with every little wafer of christ you get a bowl of beans that weren't soaked properly (maximum religious impact you know)
BEANO is a work of the devil!

suddenly the hatred of the fig makes sense.
I mean, figs are full of fiber, that will clean you right out and you would have no farts at all!

Suddenly it makes sense and brings a tear to the eye
oh wait, I just farted,
damn son, open a window!

holy crap Jesus just spoke to me in the shower
I was in there washing my stuff when
a vision came through the window and cut through the steam
it was the savior sittin on a thrown all dressed in white
AND EATIN' BEANS

I was like
JESUS CHRIST MAN WHAT ARE YOU DOIN?
pullin' on the shower curtain and covering my stuff


suddenly this boomin' voice calls me

Heraclitis (he says), get your fingers out your ass
I got a job for you
Find a blank T shirt of fine cotton polyester blend
Stretch on a board and decorate it with a holy image
(I am like, hey I washin' my stuff, I don't need your silly finger in the a (suddenly big boom of thunder as Ezekiel dropped a load in my toilet)

Jesus continues:
Listen here when I am giving holy instruction
I am not that impressed with you as my messenger of god but the big guy won the coin toss
I had chosen Rick Santorum but his majesty says no, you must
use Heraclitis

I am like get on with it I gotta go to work.

Jesus says, no work for you today
on the t-shirt draw an image of me (blue eyed hippy dude with a halo and a robe)
draw me hiking my robe and passing sacred gas on the fig tree
The fig tree withers and dies in the presence of my eminence
around the picture write the following in bold letter

THE SACRED ORDER OF THE THE HOLY FART

Tonight, dressed in this shirt. march down the isle of debate
i will part the secret service as you approach the stage

then you say to the candidates

I have been sent by the savior who wants to know:

WHERE DO YOU STAND ON THE ISSUE OF THE FIG?

Then fart mightily in their presence and in their general direction!

What's up with that?

Just a tee-shirt man
A symbolic dissemination of
Propaganda from the biblical era
Like the peace signs
On tie-dye shirts
To remind us
Of another period
Of enlightenment
No fig trees
Then no fig leaves
For renaissance
Painters to hide
Human nakedness
Soft and
Cherubic porn to
Keep the creative
And procreative
Juices
Flowin' in the Wind
Until the
Enemy is
Outnumbered

This just in. God is allowing a clarification on the fig situation. Once more details are available we will forward the information to the appropriate places as soon as possible!
