I Think I'm Swiss ......

[dalthauser]

I watched Bill Maher's I'm Swiss last night courtesy of Blockbuster Online.  

I'm a little worried about the fact that I agreed wholeheartedly with everything he said with the exception of killing unborn babies being okay (while I don't believe abortion is "okay" - I defend everyone elses right to think that - including Bill).

I wonder what this says about me?  I mean I agreed with every word of his monologue - some of which I'm not proud of (like Jesus >or Buddha/Muhammad/Moses/etc.<  being the equivalent of an imaginary friend in my mind ..... SHAME ON ME!).

(edit to remove some wording that didn't come out the way I intended)

I'm afraid I'm going to hell.
(probably in a handbasket)


On a lighter note
Here's a pic of two frogs just before I rescued them out of the old Jacuzzi Algae Tub in my backyard.

Hrm...how to say this without turning this into a novella....

My first husband, the abusive jerk...yeah, he was a pastor. Nothing like a little hypocrisy to go with your fire and brimstone. So I was a pastor's wife. For eight years. When I left him, I also left the Christian faith. Shortly after that, I was saying goodbye to a loved one who was about to get on a plane and I've always had this mortal terror of airplanes whether it's me riding in them or someone I love. And I was so nervous and I started to pray. I caught myself after a few seconds and was like, "WTF girl? You can't pray! You don't believe in that anymore, remember?"

And I felt very small and powerless by doing...nothing. And in that moment I realized that prayer was just that, a remedy to feeling out of control. We can't control a situation but we can pray about it and make ourselves FEEL like we're controlling it, or at least doing something. Which is better than doing nothing, right?

So...all that to say...I agree with you and am most definitely going to hell (I already have my handbasket - I've got a friend in the business who makes them :P) so...you're not alone in that regard.
