God being an Iron and all

[kiya]

So I have a great-aunt. She's the sort of matriarch of the family who would keep tabs on everyone and send them all little wreaths of shells and wildflowers if they were all within convenient reach of her. Given that this is an age of travel, though, she can't do that. But then . . . she discovered AOL.

So today, I received from her a bit of Christian net-kipple. This particular thing suggested that to be Christian is to be like a pumpkin. For one is brought in from the patch, has the dirt washed off and all the icky stuff removed, and a smiley face marked on one and a light set inside so all can see.

My irony meter has blown a gasket.
