Here's one family who was traumatized by the church. But the church doesn't understand it. Be careful out there. Happy Halloween!

"The Easter Bunny and Jesus" cartoon by nakedpastor David Hayward One of the things we have to learn during and after our deconstruction is that it's okay to have fun. It's okay to laugh!It's okay to joke around! My favorite theologian, Karl Barth, said that theology must be a joyful enterprise. You wouldn't know it!There's so much seriousness out there. Validly so! There are serious things happening. BUT... I think it's important to somehow maintain joy throughout it. I hope today's cartoon at least brought a smile to your face.It did mine while I drew it. Enjoy your day. Enjoy...

"April Fool's Sheep" cartoon by nakedpastor David Hayward Actually, sometimes we do announce something shocking in order to test the response of those we care about. If their response isn't satisfactory to us, we say we were just joking and wait until we have enough courage to follow through in spite of their reaction. But I hope we actually do follow through and exercise our own freedom and independence. Because I can promise you their response will almost never be perfect.
