Do I Dare Poop?

We have been going on about Iraq and I have told many people I will not discuss Politics or Religion. Since I have gone into the 'Politic's of War" should I now go into 'Religion'????

LOLOLOLOLOL.... (That is me laughing hysterically)

Ummmmmm... No, I will not discuss religion. Not now, not ever. And believe me, it is not that I don't stand firm on my principals. I do... But, I will not put my view's up for scrutiny for anyone.

Am I a coward? Perhaps... but, I prefer not to give anyone the chance to rile my feathers in this area.

And... This is my OUT...hehehe... I could not possibly post about God while in the Toilet... For it would reek of Blasphemy!

I could, however go on and on about sin... lol...

Because for some reason... Sin, being a dirty thing, and Poop being dirty... they seem to mesh.

I won't speak of religion in general... but I can speak of the CRAP in religion??? Try and stay with me!

What I am really going for is "The sins in the name of Religion".

People who claim to lead others... and then sin in some of the most horrific ways. Pastors who ask for more and more donations and then buy a new Mercedes.

A friend of mine attends her church every Sunday. She fixes her little girls hair, walks to the bus stop, sits happily in church... and when her preacher passes the plate for donations, She gives 10 percent of her meager earnings. She is very poor. It is tough being a single Mom. But she knows in her heart she is doing what is right.

When the preacher asks for extra donations... she winces, knowing her youngest could really use some new shoes. She then reaches in her purse and pulls out another ten dollars for the plate.

For the preacher would not ask for her help if it was not God's will.

The preacher... in the name of (well, he said it was for a godly cause... but I know it does not work that way)... This man takes his wife on a cruise. It was necessary for the clarity of mind he needs to do the Lord's work!

Excuse me... but he just stole this woman's money in the name of religion. And this is FLUCKERED UP.

A co-worker of mine told me that he changed churches after witnessing his pastor 'hitting' on a teenage girl. (and, I don't mean slapping her around)

Some churches have installed ATM machines... Making it easier for people to make donations.

Some churches are accepting credit card payments...

How is this slogan??? "Charge Your Way to Heaven"

Some churches in Houston charge a membership fee... I don't know if this is just a way to collect more money... or as I fear, a way to keep the poor out.

It is no wonder that religion, as a whole, is falling to the way-side in our society.

When religion became a business... instead of a place to learn of LOVE (my favorite topic)... it became a place of SIN.

I did it... I discussed religion... and I said I would not... Does that make me a person who is a tad bit wishy-washy?

NO, I am just a woman... and we maintain the right to change our minds!

Today I flush all those who pretend to be doing the work of God... who are actually in the scam business.
