An hour long stay

An hour long stay
Religion is the salvation people like me find to escape the traps of humanity.
Just like the song "Hotel California", it's a long desert highway, you find a hotel on the side, you go in.



Here's what the story differs.

A servant of the house moves in, and tells me: "80 Minutes, then you're out". He takes me in inside to a big party, with men and women dressing their best; or trying to look their best.

I'm alone from minute 1. 10 minutes pass and in them I learn the music played. The melody has lovely soothing effect.

The next 20 minutes I learn to dance to the music; I learn to dance alone, the faces of the guests seem to just vanish with time. Their faces are never clear. I wanted a lady to be my companion, but they have so many different faces. They change faces. All of them. So I keep dancing.

The next 50 minutes, I go to the group of people sitting by the door out. They sit, but they can't move anymore. There's blood around some of them. Some have wounds.
I asked them: why did you stay? 1 guy jumped and told me that leaving is "so hard": the shift in the peoples' faces is "normal" and a "right they have".
The wounded ones told me on the other hand:  the hotel has traps. But it's so beautiful. So we fought for our traps. Earned every drop of blood, everybody has a personal trap. For traps we fall; for traps we bleed.
The last in the group told me to look up: I found the roof cracking and about to fall on the dancing crowd. The woman told me: They continue to dance despite knowing that the roof will fall. They say nobody is out there. I laughed and told her: but who made the car I used to drive here if nobody was out? she replied back: they are drunk on the dance. They call the dance "life".

The 20 extra minutes? well, time is irrelevant.

I then sit next to the group.

Yes, congratulations, you can check out, but you can never leave.

Yeah, I can see religion being like a drug that pulls you in, tears you apart, and won't let you out. You can check out any time you like, but you can never leave.

Good video to watch, if you want to know how common the Jesus story really is.

Imagine far right redneck voice, "Ywueee A-----Rabs listen to dem dare rock music?"

As an aside, Hotel California jingle, would make a HORRIBLE commercial for a feminine hygiene product.

In a dark unlighted bathroom
Monthly bleeding down there
Warm smell of a Kotex
Rising up through the air

^^^^^^^ Like I said, a HORRIBLE suggestion for that kind of product jingle.
