(I must admit, I do wonder if some of these people are trying to keep in touch because they see it as their duty to lead you back to the "truth"...)Living Liminalhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14972983087412105742noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8780046688666925822.post-74383549401142531212017-04-19T10:16:05.689+10:002017-04-19T10:16:05.689+10:00I realised what it was Dallas, but I must admit it...I realised what it was Dallas, but I must admit it made me laugh! I thought maybe it was true confession time ;)<br /><br />But as you say, there are very real and natural reasons why we get sick. These days we have knowledge and understanding about germs, viruses etc. that more primitive humans simply didn't. So IMO, to spiritualise sickness in such a way is to prefer ignorance and superstition over the increased revelation of how God's creation operates.Living Liminalhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14972983087412105742noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8780046688666925822.post-60444112375166784782017-04-19T07:57:02.832+10:002017-04-19T07:57:02.832+10:00it's kind of funny. Seems like people from my ...it's kind of funny. Seems like people from my past are coming out the woodwork lately and friending me on fb. I'm partially not trusting and partially pitying them. But today this one lady started talking about my old pastor and how successful his 19 year old daughter was. Apparently she already graduated nursing school, has a boyfriend who she'll probably marry next year, and is getting a 4 year degree while working at a big hospital. I should've not said anything, but I did say "Well, they push success in that family from a young age, so that makes sense." But what I really wanted to say is "what a waste of college considering she'll be knocked up and pregnant and only good for being her husband's slave going forward" but I didn't. That place makes me all kinds of angry. And sometimes I'd rather just cut them all off cold turkey then listen to that crap.Ellehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03533826849911359486noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8780046688666925822.post-31698261718629361482017-04-19T01:17:39.120+10:002017-04-19T01:17:39.120+10:00Wow that's a pretty bad auto correct...

I will say that it is marginally better than having my wife work in a nursing home with poor infection control.Dallashttp://dswoager.wordpress.comnoreply@blogger.com
