Sinnerman
Starting from Monday I'm going to attempt to harness the power of the Internet for my own nefarious purposes (since I'm now bored of being number two and three for Britney Spears Sex)
I have a real dislike for the religious zealots who still refuse to believe scientifically proven facts (they're dinosaur bones! This isn't some sort of palaentologist conspiracy! there really were other creatures on the planet before man!) or who quote scripture and verse but can't explain what the animals ate on the Ark or why strawberries have seeds on the outside in deference to God's command in Genesis.
Before I go any further can I just state that there is a massive difference between faith and organised religion. Faith is something natural and human. Organised religion seems to have been the driving force behind mankind's desire to destroy itself over the past couple of millenia.
So, starting from next Monday (5th of May) I propose that we collectively sin. A different sin each day of the week. And after you have sinned you can confess it on your site, either immediately absolving yourself or fataly condemning yourself. I'll pick a sin each day, suggest some ways in which you could commit it, but ultimately it's an open-ended proposition.
On the flipside, for those of you who want to commit some of the fun sins but perhaps don't want to be a glutton, or lust after someone you shouldn't then the wonderfully talented Anna of Little.Red.Boat will set alternative tasks involving those other seven abominations: the dwarfs! Who knows, you may wish to write about both, some people do nothing but Friday Fives and This or That Tuesdays...
If you'd like to spread the word so everyone starts off on the same foot then you're free to copy the image below and link back to this post. But be sure to come back on Monday, we've got some collective sinning to do!
Acerbia and Little.Red.Boat cannot be held responsible for any sneezing fits, grumpy feelings, anger mismanagement or gorging binges that may be brought about by this project, you're grown adults and you should know what you're doing is wrong... and get a deep-rooted sense of satisfaction out of it
