Burning Down the House

Imbedded in a lot of destructive behavior is a desire for renewal. This is entirely Christian. Regeneration by burning it all down. Adolescents also do it. In an attempt to grow up. 

Blow stuff up. It's supposed to be an interior thing. The 'dying unto yourself' kind of language. But fucked up people who can't deal with their guilt and shame externalize it. 

They will burn down your house. And every other house. Cities. Countries. The world. Because they've got it wrong. So it doesn't work. And since it doesn't work it's compulsive. 

That's where we are now. Evangelical Christians are taking over in America. Some of the most guilt-ridden, screwed-up people in history. And they might be unstoppable.
