Likewise also these filthy dreamers defile the flesh, despise dominion, and speak evil of dignities.

—Epistle of Jude 1:8 [NKJV]

‘In the last days,’ God says,‘I will pour out my Spirit upon all people.Your sons and daughters will prophesy.Your young men will see visions,and your old men will dream dreams.

—The Acts of Apostles 2:17 [NLT]

Recorded on Good Friday 2023.

Q first joined Poolhouse on the air just prior to Ash Wednesday, and has returned to the pod to bookend the Lent period for another classic conversation, this time with a very special Good Friday appearance. For a couple of fruity faggots, they really have the whole Christian theologian thing on lock! Who knows, perhaps there have even been homo-theologians before now? Poolhouse probes Q on the meanings and mysteries of the Gospels (why are there so many variations on the same story?), the alleged Q Source, Marian time wars, the power—and limits—of faith & knowing. Q shares some moving scripture that really captures the essence of our times, and Poolhouse makes the case for why “homeless preserves” are better than they might sound, before wrapping things up with some thoughts on simulation theory. The NYC tradcaths are likely to wet the bed over this one!
