When i became old enough to understand (8 years old) what was being taught at the church my mother dragged me to i came to the conclusion that church, religion, my mom did not add up.

The only way to heaven is thru Jesus.

I asked..

What if your born to muslim parents? You will never have the chance to know Jesus because your going to be a muslim.

I was told..

They dont know any better so God wont send them to hell.

I asked..

Why do they get to live however they want and still get into heaven? Why do we have to go to church?

I was told..

To shut my fool mouth before i end up going to hell.

Thats when i realized it was just a story and even those who whole heartedly believe it couldnt answer any questions about it. It just doesnt add up.

My mother is an intelligent woman and she believes every word of it. Im her son, i grew up in her house and i know shes out of her mind.

My twin sister's whole world is church.. she works there!! I love her like a fat kid loves cake but i swear she cant make it 5 minutes without trying to lead me back to the light. She calls me her greatest task here on earth. We argued today when she told me she hoped Obama would get prayer back into school. I hung up on her after she tried to explain that 2 minutes of prayer in school every day would eliminate HIV.

There are those who believe and those who dont.. period.. end of story. Research is a joke. Have you guys ever played the telephone game? Now take the telephone game and stretch it over thousands of years and several languages and multiple agendas and lets see how close you get to the actual story.

I have been watching McCain call Obama a socialist for the last few weeks. Its 2008, things are documented a little better now vs. when Jesus was walking around. McCain is watching and reading and listening to the same Obama i am and for the life of me i cant figure out where hes getting the Socialist thing from. Who cares if hes a socialist.. My point is that even if my sister and i could jump in a time machine and go back to when Jesus was telling it on the mountain or whatever.. we would both walk away with a different opinion of what we heard. Can you imagine how different our book reports would be?

So lets stop measuring to see whos is bigger (mine btw) and put our energy into getting 2way from RTI.
