Ex-Gay Kirk Talley Sings To His Helmet |
SQUEALING LIKE PIGS
The Evangelicals' music is good.
All that hands-up-in-the-air business looks too much like waving bye-bye to Jesus.
Pert, creased, manicured and coifed gospel singer Kirk Talley said he practices while wearing a motorcycle helmet, "Try it. It beats singing in the shower!"
Talley also described in graphic detail the exorcism that presumably delivered him from homosexuality. The exorcism was orchestrated by Rev. Roy Blankenship of Exodus International. Rev. Blankenship, a dead ringer for Karl Rove, was another of the presenters.
I'm skipping this part. If the Village People included "Gospel Singer," that Talley guy would have been "Miss It"!
Misses Indian, Cop, Biker and Construction Worker were quite sufficient.
Need a beer? I'm outta here.
Quickly while he's away: Crucifixes (not the Christ-less Protestant kind). Bibles. Ice water. Non-erotic writhing. Shouting. Tongues. Exhortations. Gnashing teeth. Rending cloth. Meanwhile, members of the opposite sex gather within earshot for prayer and supportive wailing. Upon deliverance of a sign -- perhaps calling "Uncle"? -- the recipient receives a change of orientation. The ladies then serve red velvet cake and the sweet iced tea of thanksgiving.
Back. Can't make that stuff up! That part was SO creepy. What needed changing after all that was the guy's underwear. The crowd ate it up!
Interesting, "ex-gay" ministries preserve quaint anachronisms like exorcism yet eschew sacred rites such as snake-handling. Frankly likely due to the latter being too gay.
Shaking your serpent or somebody else's could open any number of wormholes.
