Spurly, I feel sorry for you. You're probably a good person, helping others where you can and trying to be honest and moral individual, but the the fact that you think that your love of God does these things for you is lunacy. You are the driving force behind it, and once you realize that I think you will have a much more fulfilling life.

(Though it doesn't sound like you will - being a youth minister and all provides a lot of positive feedback to your delus... uh, I mean faith.)

Hi Spurly
I don't feel sorry for you in the least, those who do should worry about their own damn selves.
God Bless you Kevin, stand by your convictions sweetheart

Perhaps you could leave the sarcasm/critisism/pitty to those occasions where religion clearly brings out the worst in people; just a hint.

Though I have a LOT of problem with people unwilling to yoke with another based on love just because...they belonged to a different religion. I have said before that conflicting goals exist everywhere and so there is no reason the conflict in goals in religious matters alone should bring the lovers apart.

I am too romantic this way, I know. I would say similar things to those who refused to be yoked together with another because another person had a different skin color.
