I want good and evil, truth and lies, right and wrong. I want to know what the right thing is for everyone, and not just the right thing for you, but maybe not for me, binary oppositions, black and white, and not shades of grey, no ambiguities. I want things to be simple again - a life where all the cliches are true, where Jesus saves, justice will win the day, every cloud has a silver lining, tomorrow will be a better day, where love is all you need and all you need is love - all the manifestos of life that rhyme, everything that is slushy and cheesy, intellectually suspect, the opiate of masses. I want spiritual riches, the power that raised Christ from dead, life everlasting, joy, peace, ecstasy, power, riot, to this end I labour, struggling with all the energy of Christ, revelations, streams of living water, something so mesmerizing, so hypnotic, so compelling, it sucks you in, consumes you, makes you lose control, fall on your face, tears streaming, let passion, love, life, God overwhelm me for once, and not this nothingness.
