For ‘Kink Sunday’, Preacher Shows Off Bondage Gear While Linking Christianity and Racism To BDSM
MCC Toronto is a “vibrant and progressive church rooted in the Christian tradition and the 2SLGBTQ+ community” that is “open and welcoming to everyone, and a Human Rights Centre that is fiercely committed to social justice,” at least according their website.
Led by “non-binary” impastor Rev. Deana Dudley, “transgendered woman” Rev. Junia Joplin, and a cadre of three-pronouned assistants, they run the joint with the full blessing of Satan, who has most assuredly taken up residence in the hearts in the minds of the congregation.
During a sermon on ‘Kink Sunday,” preacher JJ Viviers, a Master of Divinity and Master of Pastoral Studies student at Emmanuel College whose pronouns encompass (they/them/he+she), “preached” a message on Luke 22:7-13 while wearing bondage ropes around his wrists.
First, he claimed that the man carrying the jug of water was actually queer, because carrying water was woman’s work.
Then, he went off on a strange tangent, using the master-slave dynamic in BDSM to condemn the way the man carrying the jug of water was treated, likening it to racism, before concluding that “the trauma of oppression persists long after the ropes are gone, with pain that will only begin to heal when we, those in positions of power and privilege, truly recognize our role and honor to calling to love our neighbors as ourselves.”
