Bruised for Iniquities
A challenger appears at Bible study.
At a Bible study in Newark, Delaware, Oscar Grovington asked a simple question to the twelve or so people there.
“So is Jesus still wounded from being on the cross? he was supposed to be wounded for transgressions and bruised for iniquities, but he showed Thomas on Earth. So did he ascend back into heaven with his injuries?”
The pastor, Reverend Tipton Cossack, mumbled and fumbled.
“Well, there’s ugh, there would be holes from the nails and the place where he was pierced.”
“In heaven?”
“Yes, I think that is the case.”
“Even if that were true, it’s ghosts, ghouls.”

Chanda sent home money every two weeks. In a small village in India, she deposited money into the bank account of her Aunt and Uncle who sent her to live in America. The place seemed so remote, almost cut off from the rest of the country. There, a festival took place where participants hurled cow eliminations at each other. The muddy, mucky sense of it had been known for centuries. Locals tied it to an ancient god who they believed restored people’s health with the cow plops. During the festival, thick patties hurled through the air and smushed into the bodies and faces of those rollicking around in the filth.
