I am not really a fan of Christianity and even less so of Benny. I also have an environmental problem with catholics, the more of them there are the more resources they use and the more they pollute the environment, one less catholic especially to balance out all the new ones he is advocating the faithful breed, is a good thing.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7685350.post-10630249701425286682008-03-26T13:20:00.000-07:002008-03-26T13:20:00.000-07:00I am a Christian (wait... don't hurl things at me....I am a Christian (wait... don't hurl things at me....) and I am in no position to judge anyone else. I have enough trouble trying to be a better human with the people I encounter. I don't believe anyone on this earth is qualified to say she is right and he is wrong, or he is going to heaven and she is not. But I will tell you that when I am experiencing trauma or "normal" life struggles, it's comforting not to feel so alone.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7685350.post-62468103644837245362008-03-26T09:43:00.000-07:002008-03-26T09:43:00.000-07:00It is exausting, great post!It is exausting, great post!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14619346252810796689noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7685350.post-70918663854988248922008-03-26T09:27:00.000-07:002008-03-26T09:27:00.000-07:00It doesn't seem wise to swear off religion all tog...It doesn't seem wise to swear off religion all together. I think religion has its place.

Christians are supposedly suppose to love everyone and be understanding. My experience with Catholics has always been decent compared to the many, man AG cult followers around here. Those people are scary, scary, scary. Not only do they bad mouth nonbelievers, they bad mouth other AG churches. It's all about hating everyone and taking everything they can since the road to heaven is rough and you need a Hummer to make it.The Art of Treyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02911690376917629295noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7685350.post-9862338642728841122008-03-24T19:54:00.000-07:002008-03-24T19:54:00.000-07:00religion and dogma are lame and exhausting, but be...religion and dogma are lame and exhausting, but being open to spirituality and mystery is a totally different matter. <BR/><BR/>I've been a recovered catholic for 3o+ years, it took a long time for my family of origin to accept my worldview (and beliefs) after 20 years they finally quit giving me grief because I don't believe the way they do....mouse (aka kimy)https://www.blogger.com/profile/09385557065971602436noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7685350.post-27867395165680993382008-03-24T18:09:00.000-07:002008-03-24T18:09:00.000-07:00Ever tried going to a gay friendly church?
