Stick to Your Beliefs Dammit!

Thinking fun find of my day comes from the hot wordpress blog, “Gospel of Reason”:
“God Said Pi=3″

There are hundreds of comments and then a short follow-up post here.

Speaking of pi, my “charter’s” recipe for Bible Pie (get it, get it?) shows Christians are a minority, yet a heck of a lot more mainstream than homeschoolers! Maybe that explains why the identity they embrace and project at park day picnics and pie-eating contests, tends to be mainline-ly the former rather than the latter? Safety in numbers and conformity to the whole enchilada, er, pastry?

Hurray, someone realizes the difference in those two words! And they fit. :)

just so you know, I’ve now spent way too much of my night at the Gospel of Reason and even left a fairly pithy comment. Oh, and i also realized my WordPress presence was fairly lacking.

Or he’s a mortician?? We get some interesting visitors here. :)

Well, I’m off to drive all over various counties here — which is how our summer seems to be shaping up — fun but extremely busy — I thought this was supposed to be the relaxing, lazy part of the year!

Have a terrific day everyone! :)

No kidding about the “busy!”
The kids are dancing every day and rehearsing a community theatre musical every night. We don’t travel much in the sense of actually going anywhere, but still it seems we’re always on the go. :)

See y’all around the blogs as we all check in and out –

[...] He was saying it as a cautionary tale, that Christians needed to gird up their loins lest they become decadent like these other developed nations. He says five of the nine SCOTUS justices are Catholic like him, is that right?? [an unhealthy disproportion if so] [...]
