had a talk with Pastor Leslie today(he actually said he just wanted to know me better! how cool is that? squeal!) and man, it was pretty interesting to see the interest he took in the congregation. and even more interesting, that when he was young, he really did look quite good(i think i look better though) and almost like a girl(so totally unlike me!)

ostensibly deliberate or not, i get the feeling he wanted to encourage me to choose God's way over the world's way. and definitely, i did feel encouraged. example after example of ridiculous concepts and potentially side-splitting ideas(potentially, because we still have to respect the fact that people did spend a lot of time and effort into coming up with these strange notions) that psychologists, students, generally people who thought they were too smart for their own good came up with, have all failed to prove any more solid than God's way.

the only problem is that nowadays we don't know what's right and wrong anymore. that the line has been blurred, that both white and black look like grey. 

and we, as christians, have the good book to stand by us. how are people supposed to believe that the secret to everything in life can actually be contained in one book? 

Pastor Leslie was talking about these two psychologists who came up with the idea of an open marriage. basically, Man weds woman, beds Woman, then beds women with the knowledge of Woman. though not necessarily in that order, given the way things go. and the same is true for Woman. they were lauded for their openness, ingenuity, innovation, and cleverness to vent their lusty desires openly.

they divorced a decade later. 

the problem now is that somebody somewhere will say something like 'so what's so bad about divorce?'

makes me wonder what a typical family will be like ten years from now. whether having 2 parents will actually be more odd than having 1 or 3 parents. i think if i ever do specialize in family law, my job will be very interesting. 

what is this world coming to? sounds like we are becoming a really really big Sodom/Gomorrah. Don't think there'll be reverse fireworks(the pyrotechnics, in this case, fire and brimstone, go down from above, instead of the other way round) this time round to pop the party. 

I wonder if someone will come along and curse me, calling me as a fundamentalist. and the irony is that, the left wingers are allowed to rant all they want, and all they rant seems to be correct. well, whatever happened to freedom of speech? why are we christians forbidden to say what we want now? 

some freedom indeed.
