Jesus Journal II: Baby, it's cold outside, and you just HAD to get baptized.

Hey Jesus,

We need to talk. Why is it that every mass I go to, has at LEAST three babies to be baptized. I mean, I think it's awesome these kids are being upturned over a font and getting their hair, forehead (and sometimes ears) wet, as well as being initiated into a religion against their will, but seriously? Must I stand through the whole thing every week? And I know it's not every mass, do not bullshit me. But how is it that you manage to alternate it so that I get stuck watching overbearing parents shush their infants and declare how Jean-Marie-Lou-Anne-Mcdonald's-Burned-Down Johnson is the one name in the world that they found befitting of their little precious.

Other than that, I think seasonal depression has just hit me. There just wasn't enough vitamin D intake during the summer. I know we're supposed to accept the consequences of our actions, what with global warming and pollution blah blah blah, but can you just do a little huff and a puff and make the weather all better? Just once in a while?

I know, I'm not a fan of me either.
