Tree Nazis

If science is the new religion, then the tree nazis are it's newest cult.

Don't Understand Science

Somebody posted a pic on Facebook that said that if you weren't moved by science, you didn't understand science or you didn't understand yourself. I replied as follows:

...or I understand it and don't appreciate it, or I'm sick of it constantly being shoved down my throat by militant atheist neo darwinists.

Cable Packages

I discovered that I have been loosing posts from my cell. This is a re post as well--from today--of a lost post that I sent in from my cell phone:

I was thinking about how the political party is like a cable package. You can't buy single channels. You have to buy a package containing the few channels you want to see along with many, many more that you do not want to see, but must pay for. I'm a conservative, but I am also a unionist. I value free national health care; but, I also value fiscal responsibility, and the liberals don't know what that means. It's the same in the Church. As I look around at what's available--I've told myself I'm staying put until after Chandra goes to post secondary--I don't see where I fit in. Not judging people is something the liberals used to be so good at (they now persecute conservatives), but they take everything to the left, so far to the left. In truth, that's why I left the United Church; it was too liberal. I joined an orthodox Church...at the very beginning of a metamorphosis. I became an Anglican just as the Anglican Church started to become United. However, the conservative Churches think everybody is going to hell for something. Even if you're a confessing Christian, you're doing it wrong. But, they are so by the book. I hate the whole package....

In what Church do I fit? I feel like a square peg; I look around me, and all I see are round holes.

FW:of a repost from first week of July

I am really angry that people who are supposed to represent Christ are pushing feminism, and quotas, and other left wing ideologies. I don't care what men did to women two hundred years ago. I did nothing. How is it fair to treat some people better and not equal? Quotas are not equality.

Total Freedom

 Though I am free and belong to no one, I have made myself a slave to everyone, to win as many as possible. To the Jews I became like a Jew, to win the Jews. To those under the law I became like one under the law (though I myself am not under the law), so as to win those under the law.  To those not having the law I became like one not having the law (though I am not free from God’s law but am under Christ’s law), so as to win those not having the law.  To the weak I became weak, to win the weak. I have become all things to all people so that by all possible means I might save some.  I do all this for the sake of the gospel, that I may share in its blessings.  
1 Cor 9:19-23 (NIV)

Whatever You Do?

"So whether you eat or drink or whatever you do, do it all for the glory of God. Do not cause anyone to stumble, whether Jews, Greeks or the church of God— even as I try to please everybody in every way. For I am not seeking my own good but the good of many, so that they may be saved."  1Cor 10:31-33 (NIV)

Whatever I do?  Not just eat and drink, but do?  Well, that sure opens a can of worms....
