conversations with God part 3
What would Jesus do?
I dunno, probably perform a miracle like raising the dead or curing the blind and then he’d have a dialogue with God about how awesome heaven is. I’m not really sure how that applies to me.
But I wonder, if Jesus was an alcoholic, or if an alcoholic had the ability to turn water into wine, would he be able to stay sober for very long? I know I wouldn’t. What would Jesus do if he were an alcoholic? Well, I’m guessing the Dead Sea would no longer be named for its high salt content.
It’s trendy to hate catholicism, which is somewhat strange when you think about it. Well there’s the people that hate catholicism because it’s the cool, independence-proving thing to do, that’s fine that’s the majority of the population whatever, but the people who actually hate catholicism, it’s not the religion they hate but the people.
“I hate catholicism because it condones priests using their position as one of power to molest children.” No, if you read the tenets of catholicism you’d see that it clearly does not condone it. Some of those high up, however, do, and those people you hate. What is it about religion that confuses people so much when it comes to a distinction between the person and the dogma? There’s an aweful lot of people that hate George Bush, but most of them don’t hate democracy.
