What in the name of holy shrubbery?

“Today in chapel, we confessed to plants. Together, we held our grief, joy, regret, hope, guilt and sorrow in prayer; offering them to the beings who sustain us but whose gift we too often fail to honor.

“

What do you confess to the plants in your life?”

It would seem that the seminarians of tomorrow think that confessing to a potted fern is somehow a healthy spiritual practice.    If your potential pastor’s resume says he went to Union Seminary, don’t waste your time with an interview.

FYI, even if this isn’t as monumentally stupid as it sounds on Twitter, the fact that someone thought posting it was a good idea is still disqualifying.
