Supernatural, religion and stuff

[qultng1]

I don't usually post stuff here, but thought I'd throw some things out there today. My Show is sort of forcing me to say some things with the path it has been taking. I prefer to watch television for enjoyment and escapism, but Show has been soooo good to me and brought me so many wonderful friends and let's face it, I'm obsessed and it matters to

For a start, I love that Starsky and Hutch was the one other show that got you like ours does. I thank my mother for introducing me to the wonderful world of S&H LOL

once have we heard anything on Jesus.

Very good observation, that. And it has me wondering, too. Honestly? I hope the writers leave him out of it, in a way. God is universal, but Jesus... I don't know, I feel protective. All faiths believe in God in some form: Allah, Yaweh, God, etc.

But not all faiths follow Jesus.

I suppose I fear that with the Pandora's Box Kripke is opening here, the possibility for strife is more prominant if Jesus is "used" for the storyline.

Does that make sense?

Makes perfect sense. To be honest it wouldnt effect me if he does or doesnt.

But it just had me curious considering the characters and what he has shown us so far. I find it interesting that we havent even heard about him in a passing conversation ... given the background of the characters and the general christian beliefs or knowledge ... just has me curious.

I wonder if that is on purpose or just something he hasnt thought about because of his own beliefs

This was beautifully put and well-thought out. Thank you for having the courage to speak your truth as you know it and offer your care for us through that. I am, and have always been, honored to know you.

In two recent communications with family -- my brother and my grandfather -- I've found it important to explain my convictions. I alluded to that in my SoC last week. I wanted to share with you what I said to my Grandpa (which is essentially an edited version of what I sent to my brother) via email.

I think that faith is very personal and very unique to each individual. I’m still learning and searching - and I don’t know that I’ll ever have all the answers I constantly seek when it comes to faith. I can tell you where my head is currently as I think about religion, and I can tell you that I will be honest with these feelings as I raise my daughter, allowing her to seek out answers as she grows.

I feel that religion is the basis for the majority of the evil in the world. And I say that because religion, to my

First off, thanks for wading through that mess! I was horrified when I saw the condition it went up as. It's fixed now, tho.

*Hugs you back* I feel the same about you and nothing could ever change that.

Only two things that I can think of can create the kind of conflict I live my life trying to avoid: religion and politics. I never, ever talk about politics other than to say I'm a conservative Republican and leave it at that.

You are most definitely a good person...one of the best! An an awesome example for all of us.

I appreciate your thoughts and views.
