I walked into the library at school yesterday and there were no books on the shelves. The ban on yelling in the library is to allow people to read books undisturbed. The ban on eating and drinking in the library is to protect those books from possibly being harmed. If the books are all gone from the library then what is the point in banning food and drink. If there are no books to be read then people couldn't be reading them in the library and yelling should therefore be admissable. If the books are no longer in the library then the bans on eating, drinking and yelling are therefore null and void.
If church buildings, and the laws that they represent, no longer house God, if they are no longer sacred spaces then why are we still confined by the religious bans imposed to protect the sanctity of the location, and the sanctity of the laws it advocates by its presence? If this new religion of loving relationships is so freeing then why can't I eat, drink and yell? Why can't I simply live my life? Why must guilt and shame structure my existence within the walls of the church building and its laws?
People should profane libraries more often...
