Ex-Gay, Ex-Christian Says Pot Helped Him Think 'Straight'
In part two of his impassioned new series on God, homos*xuality and organized Christianity, Author, K. Godfrey Easter asserts, "God used weed to help me spiritually understand homos*xuality when abusive Christian pulpits, all my life, couldn't."
The ex-gay and now ex-Christian author writes, "High as a kite, Grace invited me on a celestially fascinating journey, as Christ patiently unveiled creation, humanity, and His kingdom through opposites like I've never seen, read or heard. As Wisdom scouted out a clear path, I found myself soberly striding down the narrow way of understanding six years ago.
Only then did remaining gay ever become a choice for me. Not once was I bashed with scriptures, wielded by bullies who, with intimidating bigotry, widely scatter the sheep they've been called by God to shepherd. As sure as God called Moses from a burning bush, Love forever transformed my thought life, starting first with anointed Kush."
After supporting organized Christianity for almost 50 years, Easter suddenly resigned as the main musician for a prominent Baptist church located in Seattle's culturally rich Central District. Last December, he gave his former pastor his two-week notice, saying he wasn't leaving Christ, "...just the insanity of Christianity today."
K. Godfrey Easter is the executive ministries director of ACTS & BEYOND Ministries. Since 1995, he has housed a passion for writing about God. All are cordially invited to visit www.ReadOpposites.com to learn more.

I hear a lot of people say weed helps them think straight and remember better. But a couple of years from now they won't remember a damn thing. How do you spell OUT? Oh, O-U-T. It's the little things they're gonna forget...
