¯\(ツ)/¯ I would love to live in whatever reality you're from where you don't have to deal with people exactly as dumb as this and 100% serious about it.

But in the reality I'm in, if this is a joke then it's a poorly written one. Good jokes heighten reality, this just sounds like a MAGA.

I tried rereading both of those series recently (there were maybe 6 Change novels out when i read them, so it was many years ago) and I just couldn't.

Island in the Sea of Time is worse. Some credit for having some better developed female characters than most male authors at the time, I guess. But the SA scenes were fuckin awful.

Different person sticking their nose in, but I really respect what the Satanic Temple is doing. Like in general, but also specifically their stance that religion should not be ceded as the territory of superstition.

Like it or not, religion is one of the fundamental building blocks of community. It provides gathering. At its best it encourages sharing, both of burdens and of blessings. Prayer is so often just meditation focused on helping one another.

I was raised in Christianity, and I am downright resentful of so much of what they did to me. But god I miss the community. Kink is the closest thing I have found in secularism.

No Satanic Temple near me unfortunately. I'd love to have something like that in my life.
