What a blog should be

| | Comments (4)

My dear husband almost never reads our blog. I think he finds it too girly. The other day he called me over to the computer, showed me the blog he was reading, and told me, "Now this is what a real blog looks like. See? Discussion of real issues. No Weather Pixies. No recipes."

The blog was Bettnet. Now I see that Dom has kindly posted a recipe for lentil soup. So I owe Signor Bettinelli twice over now.

Christmas for Dylan

|

From Papa Noel Apologia, complete with a sweet little Christmas thought:

Some of us have gotten together a modest gift for Dylan and, in fact, KTC of the Gospelminefield has already sent it off at her own expense. Those of you who would like to contribute should email her at this address, and she'll tell you where to send the 2 bucks. Yes, a mere two bucks to brighten our friend's hopes this season of the Child who gave us everything, and all of Himself. Blessings to all so inclined. And may He show mercy to His poets.

...including this one from Ms Susie Q:

Well!! Let me ask you this yvette [another commenter -- Peony]. Are you sure that 'jesus' is really the person you think he is?? I mean (before you go crazy :)) I mean, think about it, even 2,000 years ago people where con artists, just like some people are today. I am saying that what if.. this whole religon thing was made up?? I mean, back then anyone could have come into town and said 'I am the son of god' and people would have belived him. The Jews could be right, our 'savior' could still be coming. Budist could be right, romans, there are many gods. Witches are right about thier god and goddess. I think that religon is a state of mind, not a real thing. True, it does not sound that way. I think that ALL religons are right, and what I mean is whatever you belive in, that will be true for you. For example, you belive in reincarnation, so you get reincarnated. You belive in god and heaven and hell, so if your good you go to heaven, bad you go to hell, etc. Nobodys right, noone is wrong. I think you might disagree, that again your religon is the only way to 'god' but if you take a moment and think about, how did we get all these religons in the first place? Yes, people made some up, but you cant get so many from just human imagination. People might have had just sudden enlightment and understud what had to be done. And also yvette, knowing you, you probley do no belive in magic. But did you know that there is solid proof that moses used magic to spread the waters of the great sea to free the slaves?? Or that jesus used magic to heal blind men, walk on water, and turn water into wine? If he lived and walked this earth today, people would have considerd him a witch!!

Anyone care to help Miss Q? Comment here if you do. (Please, be gentle. This is not Two Salem Mommies. ;) )
