This stuff shouldn't bother me
Dec. 2nd, 2012 04:37 pmI am an agnostic. I do not claim to know if there are no Gods, one God, or seventy Gods.
But I do sing in a church choir, and after church when I got in my car, I turned on WHRB. They were broadcasting the service from Memorial Church, and I heard a beautiful pefformance of Thomas Tallis's "If Ye Love Me (Keep My Commandments)". That's an anthem for Pentecost, not the first Sunday in Advent. It's six months out of season. It's like singing Christmas carols in June.
I don't know why that bothers me, but it does.
