  • What has happened to our once Godly society

    Taken from an article off of MSN.com

    Sign #1: There's no September. If your new guy is tentative about discussing the future (as in, autumn), he may consider your situation to be strictly casual. That said, most budding relationships focus on the present rather than the future, because you're both figuring out if it's worth pursuing. So don't read too much into this one sign.

    Sign #2: What friends? You and your new love are an island. You haven't met each other's social circle, and for now, you're cool with that. Yes, you have him all to yourself - great! But from a man's standpoint, sequestering you makes it very convenient for him to terminate your affair when it reaches its use-by date, which he may have predetermined.

    Sign #3: It's a one-track bond. Let's just say you wouldn't classify your current union as a meeting of the minds. In fact, while you totally dig each other's action between the sheets, you rarely connect when your clothes are on. This affair will burn fast and bright, so enjoy your lusty tryst. Just don't mistake hot sex for a growing romance if it's clear your chemistry is all about the booty.

    Oh my stinkin gosh...

    Does anyone want to take a stab at explaining our overly sexualized culture...

    ...for all have sinned and fallen short of the glory of God?

    @sarahsD@xanga - Heh, awesome response.


    Our culture in particular I think is choosing sex as the current "filler" for a desire for God to be real and to be pleased with us. We all have that drive to know Him and some of us are very good at finding other things to replace Him for periods of time... I consider the focus on trashy sex to be our culture's current filler of choice. It makes some sense--after all, sex is probably one of the deepest and overall intimate experiences between a man and a woman. It involves all the senses, the mind, emotions, etc simultaneously. But in reality, it's no where near as good as knowing God. And that's not Christianese, that's for real.

    Been that way since the beginning.  We've never had a 'Godly' Country.

  • mileyfan08@xanga

    @Evowookiee@xanga - I completely agree there!

    You just have to realize that not everyone in this country shares the same viewpoint we do, and they have the right to say things how they feel best expresses what they think...That is the way they see the world, we just don't see it that way. (Sorry, this comment is worded quite strange, and possibly confusing)

    Just popping in on you, Pastor.  Haven't seen anything from you in a while...

    Sometimes, I wonder about that too, Phill!


    Sheesh! I need to visit you more often so I can ponder again on those thoughts.
