I didn't care one way or another, at 16 , i wanted to sky, party, and try and get some chick to play along...
So it was during Xmas time... and numnuts forces us to mass...
And it's a creative mass too.. Where he want us all to go up to the front of the church, and imagine we are Pontius Pilatus... and we're supposed to come up with a question to ask both Barabas and Jezus.. to decide who get's off the hook.
note, it's x-mas, not easter... so the wrong biblical story
note 2... Historically, Pilatus didn't care one way or another, he crucified folks like we change underpants...
so 20-30 or so of the group go up front, and try and come up with some real questions.
Meanwhile i'm picking a fight with some dillhole from the other group, from another region of Belgium...i'm really bored
Suddenly i'm called to go forward
i don't wanna
Son, everybody goes, now it's your turn.
ok
i walk up front
pick up the mike.
And ask the dry question "is this gonna take long, cause i don't care, how about crucifying them both... ok?"
That was not appreciated by the group leaders, i got kicked out of church, told to wait outside the entrance... which i did...at least, in my perspective, the pub across the streat was outside the entrance... I was well sauced up by the time the others came out ...

When I was in fifth grade my mom enrolled me in a Sunday school class taught by the minister of the church. He was telling us about Adam & Eve and the forbidden fruit. After he was done he asked if anyone had questions.
I was the only kid to raise my hand. I asked him about the talking snake. The talking snake caused all the problems. The only punishment it received was it had to crawl on it's belly from now on. How did it get around before, did it hop on it's tail or float? He did not want to answer that and just shut me up. I told my mom I was not going back to his class.
