LIVEBLOGGING MY INITIATION INTO THE PROCESS CHURCH OF THE FINAL JUDGMENT

Hi. I am about to become a member of the Process Church of the Final Judgment. I am one of the chosen ones. I know it seems like all this stuff is dark, but really it's not. This is about capitulating to god--a god of light and unity. Genesis P-Orridge is upstairs drinking whiskey in preparation. S/Z/he is the moderator.

My original plan was just to undergo the initiation rites, then tell you about how it went on like Monday, but I've been sitting around chit-chatting with folks for hours so I thought I'd just check in and give you a little sneak-peek. Satanic-Christian rituals take *forever* to set up.

Here's Gen.

One of the other officiants.

This is me in a gnarly purple robe someone got off the back of a truck. Probably last worn by the choir member of a black church. (Black as in skin, not as in spooky!)

All the shenanigans with the robes is about… Oh shit hang on gotta participate. Let you know how it turns out.
