I’m sure people sometimes wonder why the Pft! People are so obsessed with McDonald’s. The obvious reason is because McDonald’s is a magical place. Children have wonderful memories of eating cheeseburgers, french fries and milkshakes on hot summer evenings. Do you remember the first time you put an Egg McMuffin in your mouth and your mom and dad didn’t have to hold your hand? Do you remember chewing and swallowing that Egg McMuffin? Well we do and it was a wonderful memory.
But McDonald’s has another side. That ham in the Egg McMuffin used to be a pig which believe it or not, used to be alive. Hard to believe, I know. But a lot of things are hard and you need to believe in them. Nothing more beautiful than watching your newlywed biting into a Big Mac, secret sauce dripping onto her thigh as she rolls up her wedding dress.
The Partridge Family Temple Family of God have many vegetarian and vegan devotees. They all have their bus pass and they use it to go to the nearest healthy, organic store or restaurant. But the thing is, they still understand the cosmic McMagic of the Franchise of Fire. For every Happy Meal, chocolate milkshake, Quarter Pounder with Cheese, french fry and fried apple pie there is terrorism, cancer, Judd Hirsch, tornados, Zika virus and unnecessary TV show cancellations.
The Golden Arches are two arches put together. One arch is lead, the other gold. To truly understand both arches as One, you have to go into a quiet room and relax. Because to understand God you have to understand that God is very, very big. And you really need to relax to take it ALL in.
