Do you ever get tired of the "good Christians" being quite different than their professions? I do!
I am not going to get into very personal terms, but I have been screwed over by ones that are professing Christians much more than ones who do not claim this faith.
Here are a couple of tidbits, but first how about a very nice song from Sir Paul and the late Lady Linda.
Here are the words.
Too many people going underground,
Too many reaching for a piece of cake.
Too many people pulled and pushed around,
Too many waiting for that lucky break.
That was your first mistake,
You took your lucky break and broke it in two.
Now what can be done for you?
You broke it in two.
Too many people sharing party lines,
Too many people never sleeping late.
Too many people paying parking fines,
Too many hungry people losing weight.
That was your first mistake,
You took your lucky break and broke it in two.
Now what can be done for you?
You broke it in two.
Mm-mm-uh-uh.
Uh!
Too many people preaching practices,
Don't let 'em tell you what you wanna be.
Too many people holding back,
This is crazy, and baby, it's not like me.
That was your last mistake,
I find my love awake and waiting to be.
Now what can be done for you?
She's waiting for me
The Good Christians seem to have a propensity to lie to me. I am a not an evangelical atheist, but I am an honest person. I do not hide behind scripture, try my best not to deceive people, and try to be, well, honest.
I use profanity upon occasion, but NEVER in front of children. But the Good Christians use "fuck", "shit", "bitch", "fag", "homo" "what the fuck", and other words that a three year old should never hear in front of her. I have done my best to substitute those words for ones like "darnnit", "doggone it", and "what in the world?!"
One Good Christian that I know is extremely promiscuous and lies about it, deceiving that person's parents, her suitor, and me. She does not decieve me a bit, but, I still love her. I know that it sounds weird, but I love her, without reservation. I thought that a Good Christian would not lie, except perhaps to say some such as, "You look nice."
But what do I fucking know?
I think that Good Christians have a lot to learn, about honesty and self deception. I am trying to get there, and am more honest with everyone except myself than I have ever been in my life.
But the Christians, or at least the ones whom I know that profess to be so, like to pretend to be good folks, and if they pray, all will be forgiven.
That is bullshit! Being honest is, well, just being honest. I would much rather be in the company of an honest person with no religion than a liar who professes religion. This is a difficult piece to write, but those of you that know me well know my state of my heart.
This is not a contest to say if religious or illreligious folks are better or worse. I just think that everyone should be honest, and she has not been honest with me tonight. Am I completely insane, or just very much in love?
Please give me feedback, because I am very sad at present.
Warmest regards,
Doc
