Hail Corduroy!
West Bend - Two cousins were charged with a felony crime each on Friday in the desecration of Holy Hill and, according to authorities, the older of the two admitted what he did but had no regrets.
Tuesday's date was 6-6-06. In the Bible, the New Testament's Book of Revelation says triple sixes are the mark of the Antichrist. According to the criminal complaint, Tyler Groth said he and his cousin decided to spray paint walls, statues and other parts of Holy Hill because it was "Satan's birthday."
Tyler Groth told investigators that he painted "Hail Satin," a misspelling of Satan, and a devil's face in different places and that he sprayed paint on a statue of Jesus, according to the complaint. Tyler Groth said David Groth painted "I'm glad they killed Jesus" and "Hell Will Rule" in various places on the property, the complaint says.
...
This is disgusting. Absolutely outrageous. It's the kind of behavior that clearly hints at how quickly our society is crumbling and surrendering to ignorance and dysfuntion.
It's one thing to deface a holy shrine, but when you spray paint "Hail Satin" over a crucifix, you are showing a blatant disregard for fabrics. Is satin really worthy of worship? When used in off-the-should gowns or bed sheets, it's distinctly feminine. But, for a young man looking to defame sacred ground, he should consider the more inflammatory and masculine "Hail Linen" or "Hail 300-Count Egyptian Cotton."
Of course, every few years we seem to go through some sort of cloth-related violence and vandalism. The nation struggles to forget the Flannel Riots of the 1960s or the sensational Terry Cloth Murders of the 1980s. Fortunately, authorities were able to head off the Rayon Cult's attempted mass suicide in 1996.
As a society, we must remain vigilant. Only through tolerance and sewing classes can our country hope to halt development on Spandex of Mass Destruction across the globe.
