  I Believe Catholicism And Its Trappings Are Silly, Strange & Weird!!!

  my italian friend loves going to the "feasts" that occur in italy, boston or nyc.

  these feasts feature a "saint" with dollar bills pinned around her and they parade the saint in a long procession and chant "viva (whomever)".

  they are quite serious about this and are proud to talk about the past generations of observers who appreciated the events.

  I became a Cathoic a few years after I was df'd. My family had always been Catholic until my parents decided to change religions. One thing I was inpressed with was that when you go to church, you go there to worship, not to

  study to prove that you are right and everyone else is wrong. I confess that I don't believe everything they teach, but I don't believe everything anyone tells me. As someone else stated, you can expess your opinion about the

  Church without the fear of getting df'd. And, yes, I am aware that the Church has done some horrible things and how they conducted themselves about the pedophiles was also terrible. I think they have changed. I have known

  some very good priests. There are good people and bad people everywhere.

  julia child's 100th birthday: toques off to a culinary legendjulia child would have been 100 years old today, but there's no doubt that this culinary and cultural legend has achieved immortality by the way the nation is celebrating her centennial birthday.. to start with, #juliachild is trending on twitter, and "julia child" is the single most searched-for term on google on wednesday morning.. then, there's the google doodle -- a technological nod to child's lasting cultural significance.

  the google doodle shows her in her kitchen surrounded by many of the foods she taught americans to cook without fear: whole chickens, fish, and chocolate layer cake, items that cleverly form the "google" in the doodle.. remembering julia child on her birthdayremembering julia child with a remixhow julia child taught me to cook -- and livebook review: 'as always, julia: the letters of julia child and avis devoto' by joan reardonads by googlefossil for womenvintage modern timeless - est.

  My mother used to watch Juia Child on tv back in the 60's. I bought her cookbook years ago and have cooked her roasted chicken for years. I love the movie "Julie and Juia." I happened to be at Barnes and Noble this week and ]

  saw a book "Dearie, The Remarkable Life of Julia Child." Of course, I bought it; I have several books about her. I think she was a great woman. I wish I could go to the Smithsonian to see her kitchen, but Alas, I am not able to go.

  I am going to cook that chocolate cake. Looks yummy. I did not know until today that she had been born 100 years ago this week. THANK YOU for posting this.

  I wasn't snooty. That was my sister, she's still a jw. I was always afraid Jehovah was going to zap me. I tried hard to live up to the rules. One day I just said "to hell with it all." Then I found out the WTS was a fraud, a bunch of

  liers. Now I am free. If I am destroyed it will be on my terms, not those of the WTS. So there!!

  LRG, I love Fleetwood Mac and esp. Landslide and Stevie Nicks. What a voice. Landslide makes me think about life and it's changes.

  skeeter1. Dust in the wind is a beautiful song. Kansas is a favorite too.

  5 Rules for Diagreeing Agreeably

  by skeeter1 in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  rule #1: give others the benefit of the doubt.. maybe this person has made the outrageous generalization isn't really insensitive.

  maybe this person has had a painful experience that made them overreact.. .

  rule #2: when disagreeing with someone, always take resonsibility for our own feelings.
