**Pastor's 'Devilishly Delicious' Drag Debut Sparks National 'Holy War' Over Halloween Costumes and the Sanctity of Sequins**

January 24, 2025
In a shocking turn of events that's less 'divine intervention' and more 'divine intervention-gone-wrong', Pastor Ezekiel 'Zeke' Zzz's recent Halloween sermon has ignited a firestorm of biblical proportions (approximately 20,000 retweets and counting). The controversy? Zeke, a staunch critic of drag queens whom he previously described as 'glitter-coated demons from the abyss,' decided to channel his inner RuPaul for Halloween, donning a frankly dazzling ensemble that included a shimmering turquoise gown, a gravity-defying wig, and enough glitter to blind a small army of fundamentalists.

His sermon, titled "My Night as a Divine Drag Diva: Lessons in Empathy and the Power of Sequins," began with a heartfelt apology for his previous pronouncements. "My sisters and brothers," he proclaimed, voice cracking with what some speculate was either emotion or cheap glitter glue, "I have seen the light…and that light, my friends, is a spectacularly blinding spotlight highlighting my incredible cheekbones."

The internet, predictably, exploded. Supporters celebrated his newfound acceptance (and his surprisingly good lip-sync to "I Will Survive"). Critics, however, accused him of cultural appropriation, questioning whether his costume was a genuine attempt at understanding or simply a publicity stunt designed to boost his church's dwindling congregation (the church's new 'RuPaul's Drag Race' themed youth group has apparently seen record sign-ups).

One particularly outspoken commenter, a user known only as 'BibleBabe69', wrote: "This isn't about tolerance; it's about a man in a dress who used to hate men in dresses! It’s… complicated! Like, a really sparkly, problematic complication that somehow involves a lot of fishnets."

Meanwhile, Zeke remains unfazed, reportedly working on a follow-up sermon titled, "The Trinity: Father, Son, and Holy Spirit…and Sasha Velour." He's also considering a line of ‘Repent & Re-glitter’ merchandise, proving that even in the face of religious controversy, some things are just… fabulous.
