Born in raised in a Cromish Household. Spent most of my youth attempting to learn the riddle of steel, but after a while just got tired of trying to find the answer. Wasn't much into praying, I have no tongue for it.

You know, the Bible says a couple things that fly in the face of certain practices. One in Ephesians chapter 4 and the other is 1st Corinthians 12:11, where Paul is talking about all the ways the Holy Spirit empowers people and discourse culminates in a way on the statement that the Holy Spirit gives these gift according to His will... like He's not going to give the same gift to everyone, he's not going to be manipulated by religious formula. At some point in time God is going to say, I think I WILL give this man gift of miraculous healing because that's what I want to do here. And at another point he's going to give a gift of speaking in tongues, at another a gift of having word of wisdom or prophesy or whatever, according to His plan. I've seen some churches reject the authenticity of a persons faith because they are unable to produce a certain "gift"... as if God were a vending machine and not a person. Sometimes I get the sense that He just crosses His arms and looks at us arguing and judging and playing holier than thou and to him we're all as sinful as the next, as powerless as the next and he looks at us pretending to be something and he just chuckles and says.. "Oh, really?" And then he blesses the most humble and meek because that's just the sort of God he is.

*face palm*
Totally thought that last sentence was referencing how certain denominations treat the gift of tongues as a sign of sanctification.

Get to da chopa.

Re: Demons/ghosts and religion

Heh. I had just assumed it was a reference to the Church of the Flying Spaghetti Monster, but I've now just done a bit of research and it turns out *that* religion is called Pastafarianism.

*chuckle*

And I thought DrRansom was making an intentionally straight-faced and serious response to Conan over there to go along with the joke. Nuance is really, really hard to do on the internet.
