Dear everyone...

For those of you who don't know me, I'm not terribly patient.  *sigh*  In other words, I'm trying to upload pictures... and... it... is... as... slow... as... molasses.  My fault for trying to upload between 4 and 6 pictures (large ones!) at once, I suppose.

 

One funny story from my Pastor...

 

He said that he was at a wedding the other day, and they were finding out who all wanted beer... the guy was going down the table, "Do you want a beer?  Do you want a beer?"  Well, he got to my Pastor and said, "Do you want a coke?"

 

My Pastor:  O_o "A COKE??  I want a beer!"

Why it is that people think that Christians cannot enjoy things like wine or beer?  True, we are not supposed to become drunk, but Jesus' first miracle was turning water into wine!  Surely He would not have done that if He did not think that people should be drinking wine!  And in Acts 2, when the disciples were accused of having "too much wine", Peter did not say, "Of course we aren't drunk, we don't drink alcoholic beverages!"  Rather, he said that they couldn't be drunk, because it was only 9 in the morning. 

 

*sigh*

 

*climbs off soapbox*

 

*is too young to drink, anyway.*

 

Goodnight!

Come sword-dance

Tee hee.

Dear, calm down. Drinking alcoholic beverages is totally a matter of Christian liberty. So while you and I may think it's not in the least bit wrong (if done in moderation) there's no need to get so upset.

So says the one who got all upset this afternoon while reading about Jewish holy days. People annoy me. >_<

You are indeed rather patient. I mean, you put up with me, which takes great patience. ;)

Mahtaliel ~ yes, I just meant that there aren't grounds for saying that Christians *can't* drink. ^_^ Also, I wasn't really mad, just trying to type quite fast so I could go finish the Maltese Falcon. ^_^

Carpe ~ Aw, thanks, but I'm crooked deep down... *hums Derek Webb*... as my brother would have it, "everyone is cricket deep down".

Mahtaliel again ~ Thanks. But hey, you put up with me!!
