Attending church in this age of miracles

One of my brothers, who is very outspoken about his plans to meet and date a church-going girl, revealed to me this week that he will be attending church service at Rabboni this weekend.

I was rather concerned about that, considering that some of the congregants over there have miraculously added new items to the food family of late.

As a result of his revelation by him, I have been toying with the possible changes we'd be witnessing after Sunday. And all I can see with my imaginary eye is lawnmowers being made redundant; garden flowers disappearing and car petrol going missing inside tanks.

So I had been wrecking my brains trying to come up with a rather smart plan to discourage him from... not from attending church per-se but... but from "going all the way" once Pastor You-know-who and his ilk start doing their "thing."

It is Friday. He told me about his Sunday plans on Monday. I still haven't figured out the plan. Then something more miraculous than we've seen happening at Rabboni happened.

A fellow with very advanced abilities to fore-see the future wherein Rabboni Church is doling out food menus with unprecedented efficiency and precision posted something on facebook. It is exactly what I have been hoping to come up with to reverse, if not to manage, my brother's since-that-Sunday business. I swear this is what I am going to point out to my brother on Saturday evening as he prepares his Sunday's best.

'It's hard to date a Christian girl these days. Imagine taking her on a picnic and she eats the grass. You buy her flowers and she eats them. Suddenly you can't drive back home because she drank your petrol. Haai kubi bazalwane'
