Just started watching Chris Hedges: Days of Revolt 1 and had to hit the pause button almost immediately when he quoted his father's last 2 sermon:
"Marriage is not a reward for being heterosexual. Marriage is a sacrament. And any church that refuses to honor that sacrament does not deserve to call itself Christian."
Rev. Thomas Havard Hedges
That is some smoking hot shit, ennit?
I have to say that I dearly love Chris Hedges . . . except when he's talking smack about chickens.
And right after I hit the unpause button, Chris Hedges made reference to John Ralston's Saul's magnificent book, Voltaire's Bastards. Oh, man, that was a great book. Shit, I think I have to go re-read it now that it got inside of my hula hoop.
1 If you missed it & want to see it, you have three more chances: SaturdayApr15, 8:00 AM PDT, ThursdayApr20, 10:00 AM PDT, & SaturdayApr29, 11:00 PM PDT . . . all on Link TV.
2 Last because he was fired after he gave it, by the way.
