It does seem most illogical that they would spend so much effort to advertise their belief that we are wrong. If we are wrong, why bother yelling about it? Why should they care what we believe is sin?

If someone believed I was doing something wrong, but didn't attack me because of what he believed was my error, I would ignore him.

Hopefully its just a spoof of the obama birther moevment. If anyone ever questions if Jesus was real, just ask them what year it is and then tell them that the year is based on Jesus's birth (the year after he was born was year 1). They can google it too.

It might be a spoof, it might not be. Either way, I think we (maybe just I) should pray for them. They're the ones doing the harm. I think pages like that are extremely dangerous, spiritually speaking. There's a Facebook page that is regularly posted on, too. But yeah, it is kind of silly they haven't searched for the proof themselves.

Rambling commencing in 3...2...1...

I think that...I'm maybe...not really as okay as I keep trying to lead people to believe. I think...that I feel like if I can get someone else to believe it, then it will be true. That I'll start believing it. Or actually being it. Okay, I mean. I feel so frustrated that I can't even get out the words. It doesn't help that I'm scared out of my mind right now because I keep hearing these super strange noises from outside...and I even went out to investigate, but I couldn't find anything, though I strongly suspect deer involvement. In which case, why am I so freaked out?

Because it might not be deer at all. If it's not deer, then it's most likely the neighbor's goats...but then, I didn't see them, either, and so it stands to reason that it might not be goats.

I hate, hate, hate, hate, hate being here alone. If it wasn't pathetic enough already that I was feeling all sad and depressed, the possibly-non-existent-deer-and/or-goats are making it worse. I was mopey and teary-eyed earlier...now I'm mopey, teary-eyed, and jumpy. Like a melancholy kangaroo.

Or maybe not that.

Anyway, I don't know what my problem is, but I'm trying to maintain...I dunno, sanity or some junk, because I remember all too well what it looks like when I completely lose it. Unfortunately, I think some of y'all here might remember that too...um...sorry about that. Yeah.

AND WHAT IS MAKING THAT HORRIBLE NOISE??!?

...and then I tried to turn on the faucet because hey, water, and I was getting SO. STINKING. MAD. because the dang thing wouldn't work, and I was confused, too, because it wouldn't even move at all and I couldn't figure out WHY.

I was turning it the wrong way. Of COURSE I was.

*sigh*

I know I'm not this much of an air head. I mean, normally. I save it up for special occasions.

I'm having a hard time sleeping, because I'm stupid. No, no! I don't mean that, really, I mean I do stupid things...except that it wasn't even so much that it was a stupid thing to do (I hope...oh gosh I hope...) as that it just doesn't make the same kind of sense to me now that I've done it as it did before I did it.

Maybe what I'm actually having a hard time with is formulating a coherent sentence.

I have a hard time sleeping too, I think too much. I think it's because I don't have a job and I'm not tired enough at the end of each day... hahaha

Bears have no problem catching some shut eye. The longest I've slept for is around 36 hours. I woke up a few times only to drink water and pick up my pillows (they are never on the bed...). My hostel-mates thought I had committed suicide because I didn't step out of my room for two whole days. :p

Except that then you'll find Jesus was most likely born between 4-6 BC and they got the calendar wrong. Ooops.

I just want to know why people even attack Jesus and Christianity? Obviously beyond that stupid Westboro Baptist church, most Christians are harmless. Believing in Jesus is harmless. We believe in loving others and doing good works. And if Jesus was just a fairytale, why do they have to be so adamant about Jesus being a fake and being bent on bringing others down with them?
Click to expand...
Because there is one out there who knows Jesus is very real and hates God and wants to hurt him. Best way to do that is to attack God through us and best way to do that is to deny him the one thing he wants to have freely given to him: our love and faith. So there is a certain devilish party (and all his subordinates) who has a very vested interest in attacking Jesus. And a whole lot of people who object to God's right to be God and make the rules (ultimately that's the root of many atheist arguments attacking God's character and religion in general). We aren't as harmless as you might think; we have the power to really mess up evil.

Ah, you're still with us this morning.....tuff break. Not for me! I like having you around, but I know how you feel about it - being stuck with..... life and all.


Just so I know, did something turn you against living when you were 12? Or was that just an arbitrary number?

You don't really strike me as someone who would merely "hear" something is bad and then keep away from it. You're more rebellious that than. What is it that actually keeps you from doing that?
