The latest, most accurate translation of 2 Corinthians 12:1-5

I met this bloke down the pub, oh, I dunno, 14 years ago maybe, and he was telling me how he’d taken a wild trip to another dimension. Yes, really. I believed him and so should you. I mean, why would he lie? He said it was absolutely fab and totally mind-blowing. The incredible beings he met in this other dimension told him that once he sobered up got back to reality he’d have to keep schtum about what he’d seen and heard. So really he couldn’t say much about it. Now, I mean, why would he make up stuff like this? He wouldn’t, right? Specially when people would say he was a nutter if he did. So it really happened, right?

Anyway, I promised I’d write it up for him if ever I started a blog, so I did, way back here. Honest to God, even after all that time I could remember what he told me word for word.

I might though have claimed it was me who’d tripped out in the other dimension (a spliff or two can do that to ya) so I’m here to set the record straight.

You do believe me, don’t you?

Your best mate,

Paul

  1. Brilliant!

    Haven’t heard ( or read) the word schtum in decades. So English.

    I used to know an actual bloke like this. Worked for British Telecom and took LSD one time. He said he began to trip out while repairing an overhead phone line and for some reason thought he could fly.

    It was a very short flight and resulted in a broken arm and several other bumps and bruises.
