There's a video going minor viral supposedly showing Haitians performing a baptism in a river.
This is an actual thing for MANY churches. Lake, river, ocean - pools and tubs. Immersion and open water baptisms are huge in Evangelical congregations. Like big special events.
It's all about the outrage, it doesn't even have to make sense anymore.
MY CULT IS BETTER THAN YOUR CULT CUZ (predominantly) WHITE PEEPLEZ
@InUnfunky @Cosmichomicide Red Fraüdster Cült with the hit Don’t Fear the Grifter.
Thinking more generally about culty needs and ignoring that hazmat-polluted rivers for “rites of purity,” etc are what these people are actually submerging themselves in but degrees not kind amirite?
The Lord created the potential for cellulitis and sepsis and lead poisoning too, I guess.
I'm sure they are all current on their tetanus and hepatitis vaccines...
(puts that joke about "the Lord sent a doctor to help you but you ignored them" HERE)

Speaking of BOC and other culty things...
Who remembers this non-hit (with a very silly '80s video, shocker) with Patti Smith-penned lyrics about "love" and dark obsession...?
And yes, that's "American Idol" Randy Jackson playing bass for some reason...🤷♂️

I say that is some bingo card !

Heh, and how about that VERY ‘80s sax solo. Whew. 🙄🤓
BOC
Good Patti lyrics
Randy J bass
Ridiculous sax solo
Simmons drums probably
Ludicrous video (so cringe I couldn’t post)
1983
(shudders, shudders again)
And yet one of my fave BOC tunes.
🤷🏻♂️😎👍
