First Sermon

Jesus in the freezer.
They have put Jesus in the freezer.
That have stuffed Jesus in the freezer and nailed the lid down shut.
The Republicans have stuffed Jesus into a dark, airless and stinking box and left him there to die.
Jesus is our brother. We are brothers to Jesus and our Father is in heaven.
We have learned a long, hard time how to read and write and perform mathematics.
We know there are tens of thousands of fertilized embryos - who - frozen by monster Republican scientists - hang in partial remnants. They are dead. They have been killed through neglect.
Millions of Americans know this - but do not take responsibility.
They turn away.
Here are these soldiers of Christ - given up in solemn death - and the Republicans keep them in the freezer. They keep them in the freezer with Jesus. They bang them up tight with Jesus and won’t let them out.
Their millions in Republican cash - which finances cotton plants and corn plants and soybean plants - things that we eat and wear - their military science makes these plants monsters - they are stronger not to feed us - they are stronger not to help us but to help the freeloading farmers with their corporate farms because those genetic inbred, filthy abominations are bred in order to be stronger against weed killers. They breed them with insecticides in their leaves and in their fruits and George W. Bush serves them up on your table from coast to coast - border to border.
Now where is this frozen Jesus?
He’s right close by.
He’s on the same shelf with the frozen mice that have the cells of human brains in their tiny skulls. He’s next to the plastic wrapped ham and pig skins that have human blood coagulated in their veins. Jesus is right next to the monsters of depravity that George W. Bush eats, and handles, and sells, and offers to our children as school lunches in their cafeterias.
But the soldiers of Christ are denied their heroism to the human race and to the greater glory and service of God - George Bush says - ‘No stem cells’ - because he can’t make a dollar off it. Dick Cheney doesn’t get a royalty pay check so they step in the way.
True religion and true Godly manner is defied by these Republican blasphemers.
And each day he counts the dead and frozen embryos - the soldiers of Christ - who will never help anyone or play a part in this world. Because George W. Bush does not want to see the crippled boy walk. He does not want to lift the shroud of insanity from old ladies and old gents.
He wants to shut down tight the lid on the light of knowledge - and he comes with his maniacal sneer from the same black hole that Billy Sunday crawled out of - that book burning lunatic that stole the very bread from starving children during the Great Depression.
He is like the salivating Billy Graham who will give you a new soul for two dollars and fifty cents.
He is like Jimmy Swaggarts with the prostitutes in the hell streets of Louisiana bayous - dark streets where no one can see what he does to Jesus.
Where no one can see and no one cares - not in in Indiana, Idaho, Nevada, Alabama, Mississippi, Ohio, Texas, Oklahoma or Kansas.
There are hot tears for Jesus and his soldiers are coming on now - to beat down this backward, pick pocket, pandering, stiff necked bunch and to drive them out of this our promised land and free nation.
…and Jesus will be set free because none can stand before the power of Almighty God and deny Him.
