St. Maximos' Hut

Proof of a benevolent God
James Lileks:


Sign of the times: Type "naked woman cuddling dead pig" into Google, and your first result is not one of those horrid pervy sites whose pictures make you want to bleach your eyeballs.

No, you get a review of a British performance artist. For four hours she hugged a porker while spectators filed past and thought: "There's something you don't see every day, a fact that might be conclusive evidence of a benevolent God."


It's a serious post, and a good one, but the opener deserves to be part of sermons around the world this Sunday.

And you should read it, if only because it also contains the line: "Here's the ghost of Eisenhower. Booga-booga!"
