I Still Go To A Christian Priory

I Didn't Want To Be On The Losing Side. I Was Fed Up With Jewish Weakness, Timidity And Fear. I Didn't Want Any More Jewish Sentimentality And Jewish Suffering. I Was Sickened By Our Sad Songs.

I Am Pleased Now That I Have Lived In A Gay As Well As A Religious Ghetto, Though It Hasn't Been Very Comfortable. Taken Together, Their Limitations Cancel Each Other Out And I Have Seen The World More Kindly And More Honestly.

Because Of My Marxism, I Was Not Into Myths Or Miracles, Whether It Was The Virgin Birth, The Physical Resurrection Or Casting Out Demons From An Epileptic.

Praying Privately In Churches, I Began To Discover That Heaven Was My True Home And Also That It Was Here And Now, Woven Into This Life.

I Recovered My Infant Judaism, But In A Reformist Version.
