Church of the 29 Februarians

RECEIVED Mon., Dec. 19, 2011

Dear Editor,
    Frank Zappa died again using the alias Chris Hitchens. They kill us with cancer. Religion doesn’t bring back anyone who questions your assumptions. Did your religion bring back from the dead your ability to have an opinion of your own? We don’t get many at my Church of the 29 Februarians, but our doors are always open once every four years. We’re four years younger than everyone, but we’re waiting for Him to bring back the day so we can have our age and join the rest of mankind. You who were born yesterday and tomorrow can never understand how it feels to be born a leap child. I don’t believe in belief. Believing in belief leads to hatred of someone else. If you don’t think that’s true, then why are you so mad at me? All I know is I want to live in peace with everyone I meet. Whatever reasons you have, whatever religion you have that says I should not want to live in peace with everyone I meet, I just may have a problem with. All I want to do is get along with people. Are you opposed to that? Is your religion opposed to that? Religion is broken if it divides people.
Peace,
Tom Lay
