A Very Marvin Christmas

Some of you know Marvin Bloom very well. He was an audio blogger here for several months and shared his own special mix of wisdom and passive aggressiveness. He has been hiding out for over a year, but has made a special appearance for Christmas. Really no words can properly describe the madness and sincerity of Marvin. You will just have to experience it yourself. Of course I told him I would share all messages that you have with him. He will not venture onto the web himself ever since an unfortunate incident with a demonic virus that he downloaded onto his hard drive. But that is another story.

For your enjoyment--A Very Marvin Christmas:

Oh how I have missed you M! I hope that you get the true message out there so everyone can hear in.

Do you have any suggestions for good and edifying Christmas songs?

I have another question?

Is it OK if I rearrange my nativity scene so that the doll of Josef gets to be Jesus as adult preaching for the others so save them or is that blasphemic to supersede the real Jesus with just Joseph even If I tell everyone that I invite to look at my nativity scene it's Jesus?

Priceless!

Thank you, Marvin, for that deep word from the lord :-)

"when you take the 'Christ' out of 'Christmas' all you're left with is a 'mess.'"

Brilliant!

Merry Christmas, Peterson,

John

So after watching and listening to you, Marvey, I changed my nativity set so that one of the 3 kings in humping the baby Jesus.

You are evil and I love you for it.

We rearranged my surrogate mum's nativity scene so it included an ornament of a Jewish rabbi, a screwdriver, a mobile phone, a picture of her grandchildren and a red angel. She wasn't too pleased.... we thought it was beautiful!!... http://www.flickr.com/photos/34746081@N00/2126156693/in/photostream/

Tomorrow, the 23rd, is the Christmas pageant at my parish. Marvin, do you suggest that I crash the nativity scene and prevent the children from becoming spiritual pedophiles?

Hey, Marvin! Good to see you're back to preach to the internets, we've missed you, man. :)

I had a very pagan christmas at my mum's, you'll be glad to hear there was no baby Jesus stuff going on. You're right, it's just like the baby muppets. Or Disney's Eyeore: they made him all cute and smiling. SMILING! I tell you, it's no wonder this world is lost.

Happy new year to you and Peterson!

My Gay Husband--A Spouse Speaks Out

The other day I received the following e-mail from Susanne, a woman who found out her some years ago that her husband has same-sex attractions. I felt so moved by her words that I asked her permission to share them with you on the blog. I (recently) saw your Doin Time... and I was the one who asked about your wife during the discussion period that followed. I just read your thoughts on What About the Spouse ....and I can say, most women who find out their husbands are gay feel ALL of those things you wondered about....some in more degrees than others... When my husband was dragged out of the closet because of his irreverent, immoral, and amoral behavior that our, then, 14 and 16 year old sons had to find on our home computer, I went into the closet. I didn't know what to pray for.... Do I pray that this will go away? Do I pray that he could go back to the way things were in our family before we knew about him,? Do I pray that I could go back to the way things were? After all ,...

The False Image of LIA

John Smid and me-Graduation 1998 (above) & John Smid today (left) By now many have heard that Tennessee's Department of Mental Health & Developmental Disabilities determined that the "ex-gay" program, Love in Action, is operating two “unlicensed mental health supportive living facilities”. LIA has until Friday, September 23 to respond. If LIA statements in Eartha Jane Melzer's article are indicative to how the "change" program might respond, we may see LIA change right before our eyes from a clinical mental health compound into a house of praise and worship. Gerard Wellman, business administrator for Love in Action, and a former Love in Action client, said Sept. 13 that the organization has been in contact with the state but would not comment further. “As a church, we operate under a different set of rules,” Wellman said. Curious, and what rules might these be? What is even more curious is that according to LIA's site only one staff member ...

Puzzled

Last night I performed Transfigurations-Transgressing Gender in the Bible at Imago Dei Metropolitan Community Church in Glen Mills, PA (about 15 miles outside of Philly). I had a diverse audience of about 45 people -- college students, Quakers, straight, bi, trans and lesbian, young and old. I took my time with the piece maintaining a gentle meditative pace. For the ending when I reveal the identity of the narrator, I had instructed the light tech to dim the lights. Then as the closing music swelled, I asked her to raise the lights to their brigthest intensity. With the music playing, I exited. Always (up until last night) at this point the audience applauds, I wait 5 seconds then come out to take a bow. Last night I exited and then nothing. No one clapped. They sat quietly as the music played. I stood back stage puzzled, baffled. Now what do I do? Wait? Go out anyway? And I wondered for a moment, Did they hate it? Did I confuse them? Offend them? Bore them into a coma? After what ...
