I want to embed a soundchip in a chocolate cross that does the Monty Python quote "I'm not quite dead yet!", then have it play "Always Look On the Bright Side of Life"American retail is now all about the next holiday sales.
Someone is going to steal my idea for raspberry filled chocolate crosses this year for easter.
yes, yes you are.Sorry to hear about your little buddy. Pets are truly family to us.

Aw, thank you. I seriously miss this little guy! Just killing me. The whole "family" routine is totally wrong. I still have my little kitty girl, and this bruiser dog, but my little buddy... just killing me.Sorry to hear about your little buddy. Pets are truly family to us.

Yep but does the Bible speak of him actually doing any work?Well, he was a carpenter
Ohh that got me into so much trouble as a child being raised in a Holy Roller church where all drinking was a sin. along with most anything else as well.I just want someone to teach me the whole water into wine thing, that's plenty enough for me to live the rest of my days happy
I once asked where God came from. I was told, "I don't know, he just is and you need to stop questioning it and believe it.", then they walked away. I got really tired of being told what to believe. Might be why I got into a lot of trouble.Ohh that got me into so much trouble as a child being raised in a Holy Roller church where all drinking was a sin. along with most anything else as well.
I asked why we did not drink wine since Jesus did.
I was told they did not have safe water to drink.
So I asked why did he not just purify the water at the wedding but made it into wine.
Got me such a whipping....
Yeah I also got into trouble for asking that if heaven is so perfect why did the angels revolt?I once asked where God came from.

I remember being like 9 or 10, and my mom was making an Easter cake. She used jellybeans to decorate it, and I called her out on it "where are the jellybeans from?" Then it dawned on me that they were the Easter bunny, so I said out loud "so you are the Easter Bunny then?" My mom didn't say much but sat me down when my dad got home, and had the talk about how parents do that for their kids, and of course, don't tell anyone and ruin it for them.I then asked, "so Santa is fake as well, right?", to which they agreed. "God too?", to which they said "no", and got my ass beat for questioning my faith.I once asked where God came from.

OMG yeah, the Bunny. I realized that one because the Bunny left me a hand written note, complete with paw print. Later, I noticed the bottom of my cat's foot was black. Thanks Mom. Don't remember the Santa realization, LOL. I was a pre-teen when the God stuff happened. StepMom was religious, I shoulda asked MomI remember being like 9 or 10, and my mom was making an Easter cake.

I hear ya. I don't fault anyone that has a specific belief, it was a difficult journey for me. I believe in Something. There's a lot of stuff I can't explain, and I've felt comforted at times in my life. I don't think we're "alone", necessarily. I just don't really know what to call it. I talk to Something, I even pray, maybe just talking to Something is the same thing. My thing is, whatever works for YOU, then that's awesome, because you have Something, too.I have some envy for those that truely believe and the comfort they can get from that if they never get anything else.
I fully endorse a true Christian and their lifestyle. They are VERY good people.
I despise those who just use religion when it benefits them.
Not running down God, just how people misuse religion.

not in so many words, but, knowing jewish culture, one can make the assumption.Yep but does the Bible speak of him actually doing any work?
a more accurate translation than 'Carpenter' is 'Handy Man'.not in so many words, but, knowing jewish culture, one can make the assumption.
of course, the whole son of god thing could have started as a cop out.
"I'm the son of god, I wont do that"
to my knowledge, as it was explained by some "catholic theologian's" because the temples were being built and the roman provost had multiple large projects in and around Jerusalem(to keep the jewish population amiable) a carpenter would have been in rather high demand and not poor.a more accurate translation than 'Carpenter' is 'Handy Man'.
This per a couple of religious theology professors I used to hang out with.
True but most of their construction was not wood but stone and brick.to my knowledge, as it was explained by some "catholic theologian's" because the temples were being built and the roman provost had multiple large projects in and around Jerusalem(to keep the jewish population amiable) a carpenter would have been in rather high demand and not poor.
roger that, so maybe it was just a creative way to be a slackerTrue but most of their construction was not wood but stone and brick.
I dunno he did hang out at temple and with some affluent friends. Having a fishing boat back then was not a common thing. Especially one that had a below deck for sleeping during storms.roger that, so maybe it was just a creative way to be a slacker
I'm not saying he was a nobody, the MAN did exhist, that is inarguably fact. I'm just saying there are alternative theories, to those generally acceptedI dunno he did hang out at temple and with some affluent friends. Having a fishing boat back then was not a common thing.

All about Jesus seems to be second hand at best. He was quoted but no writings actually by him were ever found.I'm not saying he was a nobody, the MAN did exhist, that is inarguably fact. I'm just saying there are alternative theories, to those generally accepted
Depends on which Testament is read, and personal interpretation of said book.Yep but does the Bible speak of him actually doing any work?
The majority of churches seem to discourage personal interpretations.Depends on which Testament is read, and personal interpretation of said book.

And I did say majority not all.

She's got great taste!!! That's awesome!Thanks Bird!!
End of the day I have a solid roof over mine and my family's heads so that's all I care about, money isn't an issue when it comes to them. Wife and kid are happy so I'm happy. But the wife did pick out an interesting faucet.
She's got great taste!!! That's awesome!
If you have a cat the cat will love drinking out of it.
