  • Practical Devil Worship (For All the Family) - Part Two

    Continuing my short novel satirising modern religious tolerence and censorship - a big theme of recent debate I feel. Comments appreciate.

    I really liked this. You have a talent for taking a subject that would turn most people right off and turning it into an enjoyable (if slightly uncomfortable) reading experience.

    Thanks Sazzy.

    I do try to show that I'm pushing buttons in an attempt to make people laugh at the futility and stupidity of contemporary western life - in this case, in terms of faith and the laws surrounding them. Hopefully that comes across. I'm not promoting any personal belief, except the belief that some things deserve to be satired, and shown in a different light that the usual reactionary, black and white, manner.

    We all take our faiths and laws far too seriously, in my opinion, and usually without a serious incident to focus on. Perhaps that's why we have people being killed over cartoons?

    Thanks for your interest and kind remarks. It is a kind of horror story, I suppose.

    The last update. Thanks to everyone who has risked the wrath of Satan (whatever)in order to read and comment on this.
