  • Ok..so ive been listening to Straylight Run again lately...and i think these 3 bits of lyrics..describe me and how i feel right now..with..just everything

    "It takes more time than I've ever had,
    Drains the life from me,
    Makes me want to forget,
    As young as I was,
    I felt older back then,
    More disciplined,
    Stronger and certain,
    But I was scared to death of eternity,
    I was saved by grace,
    But destroyed by naivety,
    And I lied to myself,
    And said it was for the best,"

    "Words just aren't right,
    Sometimes I just can't explain,
    All the ways you devastate me,
    Always on my mind,"

    "Holding onto the phone,
    Holding onto this glass,
    Holding onto the memory of what didn't last.
    Waiting for better words,
    They'll never come.
    So dry your eyes,
    Its better,
    Now it's done..."

    I feel so ..gah...i need my God

  • Ook so i was cruising through my bulletins on my space and found a bulletin by my friend puting a petition saying there is to much religion on myspace... here is what it said

         "  I'm not one for religion and so I say this: Yes i think there is too much religion passing around, not just on MySpace, but in the real world too. It can be intrusive and insulting to some people. When I see two men dressed up at my door while I pass by my window, I know I hide. They scare me and I don't like it when they try to advirtise religion. You don't see companies going around knocking from door to door asking if the head of house is there do you? No. Plus, religion rules the whole of U.S. of A: what's wrong with that picture? I really don't wish to wake up one morning and find out that all the companies were bought out by chruches. Notice those little baskets they hand out to you at the reception and ask for you to donate a little bit of your money to them? What DO they do with that money? Give it charities? You are giving it to a charity- the church. Most chruches are nice and well built. Why not ask for money when they have a mjor issue? Bills and taxes? If chruches are such a wide thing, why shouldn't they be government funded? Everything else that is public or privite use is! Other than door to door visits, where the hell do you see religion advirtised the most? Television. Oh my god! I think we've found something here! Use television advirtises. I hate seeing two men at the door of my house nicely dressed. Half the time I think that if I answer the door, they are going to rape me! Geeze! So do me a favour religion advirtiser's: mind cutting it down to television advirtisments and the signs in front of your church? Realize that not everyone in this world likes to be visited by perfectly dressed strangers and to be told that joining their chruch is different from the church they were already at. Geeze."

    it sounds like to me this person had a bad experience with jahovas witnesses and Mormons...

    they arent really knowledgeable either...here are somethings that popped out to me
    1.)"You don't see companies going around knocking from door to door asking if the head of house is there do you? No. Plus, religion rules the whole of U.S. of A: what's wrong with that picture? I really don't wish to wake up one morning and find out that all the companies were bought out by chruches"
     
    companies go door to door all the time.... Religion in no way rules this country...this country is very very lost...the governemnt controls this country..sorta..actually big companies with lots of money run the country by sending lobbyists to get politicians to see i their way but thats another story for and other time which brings me to the next thing


    2.)"Why not ask for money when they have a mjor issue? Bills and taxes? If chruches are such a wide thing, why shouldn't they be government funded? Everything else that is public or privite use is! "
    You see the Federal government made church and government seperate "seperation of church and state" thus why we cant pray in schools anymore, and have to fight to keep "In God we trust" on our money and "One nation under God" in the pledge of alligence

    3.)"So do me a favour religion advirtiser's: mind cutting it down to television advirtisments and the signs in front of your church? Realize that not everyone in this world likes to be visited by perfectly dressed strangers and to be told that joining their chruch is different from the church they were already at. Geeze."

    Apparently this person..A.) had a really bad experience with a church or B.)is harrased often by either mormons or jahovas withness, or a combination of A and B. Im sorry to hear that...

    first off, i would be scared of those cults too(mormons and jahovas witness's)..in my eyes, they are not for the one true God, i think its a sect based off of lies and deceit and  they seek  only  numbers and money.

    Secondly, why should the church lay down for you? just cause i dont like the color of someones house  i dont go and complain to congress about it being a violation of my rights...

    Heres how i see it..simple solution(s)
    Dont like the channel?... turn it.
    Dont like the Sign? dont look at it or read it.

     Since we are doing eachother favors already...do me a favor, dont curse profusely in public, dont blare your obsecene music ,ohh dont wear a T-shirt that would offend me in anyway since im a christian and all...so no pentagrams, I "feel" it's a violation of my rights...so why dont you "cut back " on all that? see how silly and rediculous all this is?

    but what if i could really tell this person one thing...it would be ...its not about the church..its about you and God alone..your relationship with him. Church doesnt get you into heaven ..anyone that tells you the only way to heaven and to attain salvation is through their church...is not of God and is seriously misinformed. Do you want to know how to get there...here is how. i got it out of a good book..
    "I am the way, and the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me. If you know me, you will know my Father also." (Jesus quoted by John 14:6-7a)

    ^^^^^
    That's it right there...thats the key... Doesnt say anything about a certain church you have to attend or be a member of. Its just Jesus  saying plainly... IF I DONT KNOW YOU..THEN MY FATHER(GOD) DOESNT KNOW YOU..so in other words..your name wont be on "the list"  He says Clearly "I am the way.."  

    "But wait..arent God and Jesus like the same?" you ask?

    "I and the Father are one." (Jesus quoted by John 10:30)
    so lets put two and two together... if you dont know Jesus...you dont know _ _ _
    Thats right....God! (notice i used the phrase two and two...  they are both are 2's they are both the same, they have the same value...)

    So, dont worry about "the church" Worry about your relationship with your creator, your father, your savior. "Church" is just where we go to fellowship and build up one another...and praise him together as one "body."

    So why do i care to post all this...its because i care enough about you to tell you. as sappy as it sounds...Jesus loves you and i love you too 

     

    and to all my readers..thanks for the bundles and bundles of blank comment space..:(
