captainsblogOur church is offering a 10-week study of a book entitled Reading the Bible Again for the First Time.
By noted theologian Marcus Borg.
It's about time Christianity started proselytizing this way. It will, however, require some modest modifications to the text:
Blessed are the poor in spirit, for they shall be assimilated.
Blessed are those who mourn, for they shall be assimilated.
Blessed are the meek, for they shall be quickly assimilated.
...
If your brother strikes you, modulate your shield frequencies. If he randomizes his weapon seven times, modulate your frequencies seventy times seven.
...
In the beginning was the Borg, and the Borg was with God, and the Borg was God. The Borg added all biological and cultural distinctiveness to its own. We saw its glory, in the shape of a cube.
....
There'll be a few more like that, here and there, plus naturally the need to rename the main character as "Second of Three."
