Angry Conversations With God (2009)
“Up vistaed hopes I sped; And shot, precipitated, Adown Titanic glooms of chasmed fears, From those strong Feet that followed, followed after.
—“The Hound of Heaven,”BY FRANCIS THOMPSON FEW BREAKUPS HAPPEN INSTANTANEOUSLY. LET’S SAY A MAN IS caught in adultery: he might plead for forgiveness; he might (rightly) blame his wife for driving him away. Even if she hightails it to Vegas for a quickie divorce, she’s still left with the aftermath: the horror of betrayal, the memories of good times, ...the gnawing suspicion that she was at fault. She doesn’t walk away clean. Nobody walks away clean.
I could not walk away from God clean. For one thing, I knew I could never “divorce” him. He would always exist, whether I liked him or not. When Mark pressed me, I blamed God for what had happened; but I knew deep down it wasn’t God—it was his church. But how can you live with someone if all his friends are psychos? Well, okay, not all of them were.MoreLess
