(OPINION) As recently reported, many of our activities at King's are now looking and feeling very different. This moment in King’s history is fraught with uncertainty. Day advised the student body on how to respond. Day’s allegorical instructions, while good-intentioned, deeply misrepresented biblical processes of grief and scientific literature on how we as human beings feel. A constant grief of mine is a thread of “wack theology” that creeps in time and time again: negative emotions are ungodly. In light of the new updates and alterations to our student experience and institution as a whole, lend your ears as I aim to untangle this self-spun web of emotional suppression that stifles our relationship with sorrow and hope alike.
