Good Friday - Lent 39

 

Album cover for the Grindcore Heavy Metal Band
Napalm Death.
əlahí əlahí ləmáh šəvaqtáni My God, My God, why have you forsaken me?
Psalm 22

This image is so troubling for me.  We know a lot about the picture of the naked children running with napalm burns, surrounded by photographers, taken at the height of the Vietnam war.  I was in two minds about using it because it is wrong.  

I read more about Napalm Death.  They formed in the 1980's in a village in the midlands of England.  The band says they stand for anarchism, humanism, socialism, and animal rights.  So they are not baby eating Satanists.  

Today is the day that the sewers spew forth their filth.  God, who created the potential for all evil and iniquitous things to occur, puts the check on things and pours bleach down the hole.

PRAYER:  I trust that you have resolved the problem of evil, and all is well.
