Remembering Hilda Bratwurster

[Ezekiel Bathfire]

Today marks the 20th anniversary of Hilda Bratwurster's Journey of Triumph to Jesus. Hilda was baptized at Landover in 1939. To remember her, I include a photo of her feeding the animals at Landover Creation Animal Park.

A reporter once asked her how she had the courage to do these things, and she replied by way of verses from the Old and New Testaments

Isa:11:8: And the sucking child shall play on the hole of the asp, and the weaned child shall put his hand on the cockatrice' den.

M'r:16:17: And these signs shall follow them that believe; In my name shall they cast out devils; they shall speak with new tongues;
M'r:16:18: They shall take up serpents; and if they drink any deadly thing, it shall not hurt them; they shall lay hands on the sick, and they shall recover.

Beautiful!

Oh, dear Sister Bratwurster; how I do remember her with such great fondness. I recall visiting her for afternoon tea one time, back in the days when she lived across the street from Anthony Weiner, over on Schnitzel Avenue. Sister Hilda certainly loved her playful pets, as you have so kindly shown, dear Brother Bathfire. May she rest in glorious peace, safe in the Arms of — safe from the slings, arrows and lacerations of life on Earth.

It's amazing the old bird lived that long, with all the Crocodile Hunter stunts she pulled (actually, that Steve Irwin guy stole his whole act from Sister Hilda). Another proof that prayer works.

Is there any way we could get an actual cockatrice for the Creation Animal Park? It would certainly be hard for atheists/Darwinists to explain that in secular terms, and it would provide good, old fashioned family entertainment. Between shows, we could keep it in the children's petting zoo.
