Steele: Finally, a Real Church Without Christ

imagesThose who prefer their church-going with cheese and onions, take note…

On January 22, Wichita’s St. James Episcopal Church will be hosting—no joke–“Chili for Choice,” Planned Parenthood’s way of ringing in the 43rd year of Roe v. Wade.

Sorry for the visual, but doesn’t it just seem a little off-putting to commemorate legalized abortion by eating chili?

In any case, this sounds like the kind of event that would have warmed the heart of Hazel Motes, the wacko hero of Flannery O’Connor‘s dead-on 1952 novel Wise Blood.

chili-for-choice1Hazel wanted to start “a Church Without Christ” – a church without God for that matter – a church where, in O’Connor’s words, “there was no Fall because there was nothing to fall from.  And no redemption because there was no Fall, and no Judgment because there wasn’t the first two.”

Hazel did not to start a church.

He just needed to find his way to Wichita—apparently, not much in the way of judgment going on there and minimal redemption to boot.

Rich Steele brings a cast iron stomach to the table of political correctness.

    Well, at least the man is being honest about the whole boogeyman god thing. I think myself more of a pastafarian personally. Pass the spaghetti sauce please.

    Sacred cows make the best hamburger.

    Unitarian is pretty close to such a church. The one tenet they all believe is there must be coffee.

      Sounds good to me as long as they allow same sex marriages where the ones to wed are dressed up as Han Solo and Princess Leia. If they are ok with that, I can abide.
