I just know that Boxcar believes he won't be there.

That makes hell, heaven.

..... (Oh, never mind, God already told me all I need to know right here in this book....it is called the Bible....it tells the history of these people called Hebrews and Israelites... They are God's chosen people....and about a boy that was born in a manger who grew up to become a king and went on to save everyone from themselves and this evil thing called Satan and his angels who is out to get us so that he can have company forever in a bad place called Hell....which is where you will end up if you do not believe in the little boy in the manger who grew up to become king....I could tell you more but I have to go to band camp right now....).....

Pope Tells Cafeteria Catholics

Pope Francis said this week:

“But to be a Catholic like him, better to be an atheist!”

Yup, the love of money is the root of all kinds of evil.

When people worship god, what exactly are they doing...? I remember when I would go to church and we would sing songs...but what is it really...?

Being thankful no matter what your condition is...? Having a contrite, meek and humble spirit all the time...?

What does it mean to praise god...?

Do we wave our hands in the air and say "I love you, Lord"...?

How many times do we have to thank god for all that (He/ She/ It) has done for us...?

In what way do we "love" god..."love" Jesus...."love" the spirit...?

How is this love expressed...?

The peaceful Muslims....
ISIS beheads 15 year old in Iraq in public square for listening to western music.

Love expressed in Islam.

Makes "Jews wearing funny hats" kind of an insignificant topic when you put it like that...wonder if Vigors will agree.

Old injun saying... "long hair, short hair, no matter with head cut off"...

Still, I think the hats are funny, even if they are insignificant as you suggest...I think the commandment is that the head ought to be covered...(for what reason, I don't know, maybe you can explain it why God should desire this of humans)...but in any event, its like...."I don't really want to cover my head or wear a hat all the time, SO I'll just paste this lace circular patch on my head, and call THAT good...meets the minimum requirements of the law...and nobody can say that my head isn't covered, now can they....?

So I find it humorous the lengths taken by humans to appease an imaginary yet righteous and extremely holy God.....don't you...?

What kind of funny hats do you wear...?

Where is the commandment to keep my head covered...? And why don't you wear a head covering also Boxcar? Like the Jews do and the Pope does...?

Catholics used to require women to wear a head covering. I can remember women pinning handkerchiefs to their head before heading inside.
