        If the sermon was on how the congregation should start attending synagogues on the sly in order to date secretly Jewish women, would that be ironic?

        I confess that the more I learn about irony, the less I understand it. I that ironic? I have no idea.

    In ‘The Fault in Our Stars’ the two main characters are in a church’s meeting room (where their counselor keeps saying they’re in the heart of Jesus) and after the meeting have a conversation about how it can’t be healthy to have a bunch of cancer kids hanging out in Jesus’ heart and how they wish they could warn Jesus but sadly they’re still trapped in his heart.

    In the town where I was born, Christians only went to church at Christmas, Easter, weddings, baptisms and funerals. Exactly because they felt close to God through the world around them every second they were awake, so going to church every sunday just felt redundant.

    I need to stop doing this to myself.
