I was coming down Peachtree Dunwoody, towards the soccer fields, when the voice on the radio began to describe the storm damage. It seems as though “The Perfect Church” had taken a lightening hit on its steeple, setting off a spectacular fire. The concept of something called “The Perfect Church” being hit by lightening was just too amazing.
Before I wrote about it, I needed a bit more information. Google chose this time to let me know it would no longer work for me, at least through the front door. MSN search showed a few results for TPC, but nothing that helped.
The various news websites were no help. It was as if no one wanted to say the obvious…that a place boastful enough to call itself “The Perfect Church” had been hit by lightening. The closest I saw was a reference at venerable WSB that “the Atlanta Fire Department is battling a steeple fire on a church believed caused by lightening at McDaniel St. and Ralph David Abernathy.”
Then, an unlikely source came to my aid. WGST is the home of Rush Limbaugh, and is known for its far right agenda. It has a google powered search option, which worked for me…unlike the main google page. It also has a music player, with a David Bowie concert from 1972. I doubt Rush Limbaugh was at that show, although he might have gotten some good pills there.
The google search did provide a link to “The Perfect Church” at 670 McDaniel Street. A visit to their site shows the words “Christians are Perfect!”. Maybe that lightening strike was intentional.
As I typed that last line, Mr. Bowie was performing “Space Oddity”. The line he sang as I leaned back after typing the last line was “ May G-d’s love be with you”.
