In A Burger Kingdom of Heaven
What used to be a Burger King, the thing behind the rows of weeds ripping through the parking lot. It was just a year ago that the location closed down, a franchise that few people wanted in town. Now the sign post of its former identity is a hollow frame that the rain and the wind passes through like a tourist family moving quickly past the historic parts of town to get to the new amusement park.
I walked past this at a slow pace as I listened to an announcement of the Carson v. Makin Supreme Court ruling, a new legal doctrine which holds that state governments now have no choice but to provide money to schools of Christian indoctrination that radicalize children to believe that Donald Trump won the election and that Jesus will come back and destroy American on the road to creating the Kingdom of Heaven.
It destroys precedent.
