How ironically funny/strange. I open a link to take a quiz on what book of the Bible I am, and my company's computer blocks it. "Access denied. Reason: Profanity."
Then again, they block religious sites here too. Perhaps they consider them profane??
They have the randomest search engines here. :P Guess I'll try again at home, haha!

Ah, yes, the 21st century. Where religion is profane, the ten commandments are offensive, and God is bleeped off the airwaves and national television (remember the 9/11 memorial concert?! They bleeped out God but let the "f" word slide... insane). The world has gone topsy-turvy, but like Chesterton says, the pendulum will swing the other way eventually. What book of the Bible were you? :-)
Gotta love the political-correctness police!! did you know employers can actually block sites that might be racially, religiously, or sexually harrassing to someone observing? Not the reader, but the passers by. (Not kidding, it was in the computer policy manual of both investment banks I've worked for). Thus, we are in a generation of people who will cry over something they read over a coworker's shoulder. Wowee!
Anyway, I was Lamentations--Not sure why, but probably because I checked one of those boxes about feeling depressed at times. :-) Not lamenting anything right now that I know of though!
