BIBLE STUDY RANT
I was an atheist
And then I went to prison and became a Christian
Instantly
Can you blame me?
Bible study was the best way to get out of the cellblock
And the Christian brothers stuck together
Hallelujah
I saw all kinds of crazy things at bible study
Sometimes the Nation of Islam would crash it
Sitting in the back
And start heckling but end with fights, riots, flash bangs and tear gas
I saw middle class white people come from off the street
To volunteer to share the word with those of us in captivity
Hiding under the tables same table as me
Wide eyed and scared to death
While I was staring back at them, used to it and laughing
And inmates would give the most disturbing testimony
Every night you’d hear testimony like:
I kidnapped a man and his wife
And drove them to another state
And raped the wife in front of the man
And then stabbed the man in front of the wife
And then took the wife back to where they came from and stabbed her too
Thank you Jesus amen if it hadn’t been for you
The Ministers testimony involved being raped by his Uncle as a baby
And having numerous surgeries done to repair the damage to his rectum
He would conclude with how the Lord delivered him
From the wicked ways of homosexuality
Then outside of bible study you’d see him back sliding immediately
Buck naked sitting on another inmates lap
French Kissing
And the gospel music was fun
You got to stomp on top of the chow tables and make as much noise as you want
I saw exorcisms performed live by Catholic Blacks
That couldn’t comprehend Latin
But could read it aloud with enough conviction
To invoke demons but not repel them
And the list goes on
Thank you Jesus!
