I am an LDS Mormon Christian. So some fundies think I am doomed, my Catholic mother thinks I am bound for purgatory, and my Jewish best friend thinks “why bother?” ---

You may as well count Alice Cooper too. It sin a free magazine called Connection, the Good News Mag only in Ohio. Its says its from the EP. He says he is a real chrsitian, and “We have to make a choice…I used to celebrtae moral decay… so I’ve got a lot to be forgiven for…out of ignorance I thought I was doing the right thing. I was totally ina greement that every guy should sleep with every girl and drink. I don’t beleive that now.” Interesting ---

1. Catholic, one of those unenlightened ones who believes all the Church’s teachings. 🙂 2. I’m a lector at my church. 3. I’m bad about missing Mass. 4. I realize that #3 makes me something of a hypocrite about #1. ---

I’m a Christian. I’m also studying theology at Glasgow University, where it’s a strictly intellectual (ie. frustrating) discipline (in theory at least), and being about as Pentecostal as you can get, I’m also involved in trying to start a church right next to the university too, and I’m VERY used to being made to feel ashamed of being a Christian. Frankly I often wish Christians WERE a minority: at least then we might get treated with less bile-filled, patronising, idiotic, cowardly, purely fashionable and literary HATRED. I don’t mean this as a response to any individual, by the way! But think of the way folk treat Christians, and ask yourself if it’d even be LEGAL to treat ethnic or sexual minorities that way. Still. Ya gotta love 'em, right? Sometimes I think the best non-Scriptural depiction of Christ must be Aslan from the Narnia chronicles. Might be worth checking out. But go find my website (it’s barely begun, let alone finished, so don’t worry if the banners don’t load). * * * “A lion?” squeaked Lucy, “I didn’t know Aslan was a lion. Is he quite… safe?” “Safe? SAFE? Who ever said anything about SAFE?” cried Mr Beaver, “Of course he’s not SAFE. But He is GOOD.” - inexact quotation from the Narnian chronicles ---
