Shunning via Rumor
by NeonMadman inwell, i went back to the area of my old congregation yesterday.
my daughter's best friend amanda was getting married, and despite my trepidation, amanda had begged me to show up and to dance a dance with her.
my trepidation was twofold; first, my ex-wife was going to be there, and after our messy divorce only six months ago, i had no desire to be anywhere where she was.

Since we are getting technical...I found this in Larry Richards book "Baffling Bible Questions Answered" :
Q. Why would God make Eve from Adam's rib rather than shape her as he ad Adam? Is this just another proof of the Bible's chauvinistic attitude toward women?
A. It is, in fact just the opposite. If God had made Eve from clay after he created Adam, it might be argued that women are different from and, as a later creation, inferior to men. (per me or superior?) In forming Eve from Adam's rib God confirmed woman's identity with man. Eve was thus a full partner with Adam in God's gift of the divine image and likeness.
Personally I don't believe the Bible...but thought some of you might find this interesting....

lol good point ballistic....poor Adam had to sit there and watch all the animals having fun...and then practically beg God to give him his own playmate...

Actually all Adam said was "Bone of my bones, And flesh of my flesh. This one will be called Woman, because from man this one was taken." lol Adam wasn't real romantic.... I have to say I like Yerusalyim's explanation a WHOLE lot better
Just my take on it...

"Imagine" all the inappropriate songs...
by Tatiana inthis is a complete list of "lyrically inappropriate" songs being banned from several us radio stations in the wake of the attacks.. "it's very dangerous," says nina crowley, director of massmic, a music free-speech organization.
"i understand they're pulling certain violent songs.
but you put out a list of songs like this, and the next thing you know someone's pulling the albums off the shelves in wal-mart.".
