[alt text: a text-and-image post. The text caption says: “This was the most insane stage of the pandemic”. The image is a photo of a Christian baptism that took place during the height of the COVID-19 pandemic. On the left side of the photo, two young parents are standing with their baby, and on the right side of the photo, an older priest is standing, about 2 meters away from the others. The mother is holding up her baby by the arms and facing the baby towards the priest. The priest is wearing a mask, and aiming a water gun directly at the baby’s head.]
I’ll never forget how people insisted that they had to keep doing these things. Baptism is a perfect example. “But my baby was just born and I have to get it baptized!”. Okay I’m like, 99.9999% sure god would understand and be okay with you baptizing the baby when it’s safer to. If not, he doesn’t seem like a very understanding god.
And let’s never forget about the mecha-karen with the sign saying “I need a haircut”.
