Holy Crap
So, I last posed the question: Would you feel differently about Jesus if he in fact had a wife and child?
To answer my own question, I wouldn't feel different. And I'll tell you why. Are you paying attention? Ok. Here it is. And yes, I am stalling to think of an intelligent answer.
Alright.
Alright.
I wouldn't feel differently if Jesus had a wife and child because...it would only strengthen the respect that I have for this man. If he was subject to all the mortal stresses and lived life as anyone else would - then it would make him a extraordinary person to withstand the horrors that he went through to save us. He endured so much...
I couldn't do it. Would you? Ok, that's not another question I expect you to answer but still...
So, in keeping with the topic here I must confess something to you all. I briefly (and I mean briefly) thought of becoming a preacher. It was either that or a pimp and I'm too nice to be slapping bitches.
I mean, there's a lot of money in that profession yes. But, the main reason was to be able to tell people about themselves and get away with it.
I'd say something like, "You slut! You're going around town whorin'! You sleep with everyone's man and you think it's sexy! Do you wanna go to hell?! Do you?!"
And the response I'd get would be amazing. People would thank me and appreciate that I have shown them the light. And then you get to wear those nice robes and look important.
I wanna slam my hand down on the pulpit just once! It looks so cool.
But back to the issues. Because I have issues. My thing is there's a holy war going on inside my head. Sometimes I start to do a certain thing that some people would view as not being "Christian". Ok. But on the other hand I don't feel that it's particularly wrong just not something I'd want the church to know about.
Like wearing makeup and earrings. Wearing jeans or a short mini skirt. Going to the club. Snorting coke. Things like that.
Did I mention that I've been clean for 6 months? Yeah...

Now that I see the light that you've shed upon it, I totally agree... you make a valid point.. and no I couldn't do it..
We're all human- No matter what you do.. it doesn't make you less of a Christian-- as long as you believe and have faith in our Lord.
You're a good person.. don't let anyone make you feel different.
