Ashes

I would love to have written this Wednesday evening, but let's face it, blogging was the furthest thing from my mind by the time we got back to the hotel, and I just didn't feel like it yesterday. So here's my Lenten Kickoff blog, 2 days late but still worth the read. While we were in Washington... Sign in to see full entry.

"I Now Pronounce You..."

The discussion in my previous post sparked my curiosity regarding marriage. I found myself examining statistics to counter an argument using the sanctity of marriage against homosexuality, and, well, the inspiration just sort of followed. What Exactly Is A Marriage? By definition: 1. the state of... Sign in to see full entry.

"When you point a finger, 3 point back at you. REMEMBER THAT."

I know a young man from Akron, Ohio well enough to know that he was born with extremely feminine tendencies. How do ANY of the "Christian" churches deal with him? As an oddity. Even the "Liberal" churches. My friend is not a fully human person worthy of mercy and love, but a "Gay" that needs to find... Sign in to see full entry.

An Interesting Alteration

I decided to write about this topic here because I think honesty is a spiritual issue that is often overlooked. Not too long ago I finished reading a novel by one of my favorite authors, The Joy Luck Club by Amy Tan. I'm a little embarassed to admit that I put off reading it because I already saw...

Anniversaries

My husband and I will be celebrating our one-year anniversary this month. We don't really have any major "plans", as we're pretty much not that big on going out to paint the town. We'll pretty much spend an evening at home eating our cake and talking about our first year of marriage. Both of us... Sign in to see full entry.

New Years Resolution: Kill Your God

The latest work of literature bearing the big black target for American Christianity is The Golden Compass. I’ve not read this book, nor have I seen the film upon which it is based. I have, however, seen commentary, clips and debates splattered here and there on television. Christian groups are up... Sign in to see full entry.

Holiday Thoughts

...or questions, to be more accurate. If you don't celebrate "Christmas", what do you celebrate during this holiday season, and how? If you DO celebrate "Christmas", is it over for you on Dec 26? Sign in to see full entry.

What If There Is No Devil?

This is a question left by marimari in my last post. It really got me thinking. How often do people use the devil as their scapegoat? "The devil made me do it" mentality runs rampant in a vast number of circles, whether Christian or otherwise. We've seen in this forum post after post blaming a devil... Sign in to see full entry.

The devil Believes In God?

Yes, of course he does. Ok, enough about the devil. (so why bring it up in the first place, right?) The current leg of my spiritual journey began with a vision. No, not one of those “Jesus appeared to me, and told me such-and-such” visions. Life is no picnic. There’s never enough money at the end of... Sign in to see full entry.

I Have A Confession To Make

I can barely go around professing that I’m enlightened and looking for unity when I don’t practice what I preach, now can I? Confession is a practice to which I am accustomed, being a lifelong Catholic with a deep love for my faith. I know Confession is meaningless without the determination to...
