We were talking about a recent murder and Mom said "Well, didn't God say thou shalt not kill?" and I popped off and said "Mom, I'm not really sure what all God Said"....wrong to say. That got my brother a bit stirred up "But it's written in the Holy Bible" and I countered with "there are a lot of things written. And most of them do agree that killing is not a good thing, and I am sure God does not want us to kill. But, he never said it to me." <BR/><BR/>OH MY GOD-the first comment was jut a joke about God not talking directly to me.....eeeesh.<BR/><BR/>But, my family does believe I am not a killer and I'm not Godless-but that promoted a discussion on making fun of God. Now come on-humans can sometimes misinterpret intent and jokes can backfire....but the Almighty?<BR/><BR/>I personally think God gets a huge kick out of how the human race has mucked up a simple message-play nice with each other.Debra Kayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13455047894767524091noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-166466078612863791.post-45525831757876186612007-09-12T10:07:00.000-05:002007-09-12T10:07:00.000-05:00I like what you said about G-d looks out for those...I like what you said about G-d looks out for those who at least make a good faith effort. You know I've been having a bit of a religious crises lately thinking I should go back to being more strict and rules based when in reality I don't want to. It's just not me. I once had a roommate in college who said something along the same lines ... she had been raised Baptist and decided instead to just follow her heart and develop her own relationship with G-d by being the best person she could be. Thanks for reminding me of that ... oh and thanks for adopting Ms. Bitty : 0Michelehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10058386764811033042noreply@blogger.com
