Wild Bill Balding - Willies

Jesus had one.
His best friends had them.
He didn't say anything about
where they should stick them,
or whether you needed one
to give you authority over others.

2000 years on, the Anglicans split
over gay sex & women bishops,
as if these were the core of his message.

When asked, he did say
'Love God and love your neighbour.'
No mention of willies.

Go back in time to Golgotha,
stand with Mary and John,
look at him on the cross;

tell him the Word has been reduced
to dictating whom you may love
and condemning those who are different;

tell the one who represents us all
that to represent him at the altar
you must have male dangly bits

(but not speak Aramaic or have a beard,
or have nowhere to lay your head,
for that would be silly) .

Has the image of God now been confined
to a leathery appendage; what they
worship no more than a giant willy?
