Sinister: the spirit is willing

I went to an Easter church service with my parents this morning. As I sat in
the sanctuary, watching the sunlight move across the empty pews, noticing the
wax dripping from the candles on the altar, the voice reading a prayer caught
my ears. She read that "we are living in, and loving, the faith". Now as you
may have noticed, I have been using a similar signoff in my emails for the
past few months. Apparently some twelfth-century monk or whatever living on a
mountain has "borrowed" this. I daresay--this is even more scandalous than
when someone attempted a coup to become the new Trousers. I think I may have
to go to church every week to notice if any other monks or disciples are using
my signatures. I heard a rumor that there is someone named Matthew in the
Bible too--this is becoming serious. Then, when Belle and Sebastian tour, I
will take Stuart M. out for tea to discuss Calvin's principles of
predestination with the modern notion of free will, or something like that. I
know I often think of those things.
Living and loving, because I can't do it any other way,
Matthew
