Religious folks can be quite insistent that you embrace their particular belief system. I am not sure why they think you can change what you believe just by reading an email or some other insignificant event. But this woman, Jenny, she seems to think she can convert my friend Gary to Jesus through emails. Whatever.

Yesterday I said the emails were boring. But Gary’s responses are quite interesting. So I’m going to share them with you:

The original exchange is here.

~~~ Then Jenny replied:

O.k. I won’t. That is one thing the Lord Jesus lets us do & that is make our own decision. We have to choose to believe in HIM & have Faith. And Jesus is my decision, it just makes me sad for the people who are lost & won’t know until it’s too late. Read the rest of this entry »

Hey everyone. How are you today? This post will be about the 2 guys in my life. Coincidentally, they both have done something recently that I wanted to share with you. So here you go:

First, my husband Butch, who happens to be awesomely smart (and pretty damned rogueishly handsome too! hee hee). He doesn’t blog often, but when he does, I just love to see what is bouncing around in his brain. Usually it’s a bit on the angry/ranting side of things. Ok, not usually, almost always.

The other day he wrote about Things Every American Needs To Know. It’s a bit on the “angry diatribe” kinda post, but it’s good stuff and I wanted to share it with you. Basically it’s the difference between rights and privileges. I hope you find it interesting. Read the rest of this entry »

My friend Gary is an atheist. He has profiles on a couple of dating sites. He lists himself as an nonreligious or atheist, something like that. Today a woman contacted him, out of the blue, with this email through one of those sites:

“I don’t know you but Jesus does & I will pray that you will not be fooled by that devil anymore & be saved before very long! Nothing more then living for all the good of things and not the bad. The Bible tells us what is right & wrong. Turn on channel 17 or TBN sometime. You will love it! Jesus loves you & you should open your heart to HIM. He loves you & we will be rewarded someday. I will pray for you!
Just trust in the Lord. Read the rest of this entry »

I love money. I love saving it and spending it. I have a tendency to hoard it, as well. But my love of gadgets and expensive electronics usually wins out in the end.
