Yes, please.

We did a genderswap version of this in college, but it was 100% genderswapped. Also, we didn't have this much of a special effects budget!

Navel Gazing: Not for the faint of heart

My current job puts me in close vicinity with a large number of people, many (most?) of whom are so vastly different from me that it's almost like we live in different worlds. Allow me to summarize my recent thoughts:

30 Day Meme: Day 9 - I believe.

Jeez. The more I answer this meme, the less I'm sure I should have ever started. I had no idea that I avoided talking about so many topics until I realized that I avoid even thinking about some of them.

My religious life is complicated. I grew up in a fundamentalist Bible Church. Think Southern Baptists on 'roids and you get an idea of what it was like. There were no exorcisms or laying on of the hands, though, because nearly everyone in the Church I grew up in was highly educated and felt that some things pushed religion just too far. *rolls eyes*

I will credit my upbringing with one thing: TPTB always stressed the importance of reading the book. So, I've read various versions of the Bible multiple times. I own at least four. I also own the major religious books for every major world religion and about a score of other religious texts. I find the idea of religion fascinating, but at some point along the way, I disconnected from it.

I'm pretty sure there is a God. Depending on the day, I sometimes think He has a bizarre sense of humor. While I like the main tenants of Christianity, and take no offense at anything Jesus ever reportedly said, I don't generally feel the same about most of his self-proclaimed followers.

I hate hypocrites and since Jesus seemed less than keen on them, I think that's the basis for what I believe.

If you say you believe in something, act that way. Don't preach, lead. Don't force something down my throat, because I *will* spit it back at you (and you won't like it).

I'm watching Project Runway and drinking beer. I worked out to the 30 Day Shred work out 2 and I ate salad for dinner. So... I'm a bit easily swayed in the emotional realm right now.

So, yeah.

Gonna play Plants v. Zombies now.
