Sunday. . . .Church. . .Hooray?
[Playlist and Snippet]

[Just Church, Not Much Else. . ]

Well, church was pretty. . .erm. . .. churchy, as it should be. This time we went there on time (because we went w/ Art and sat in the back,) and caught both the service and the talk afterwards. I don't know if I mentioned it before, but I don't enjoy the singing and dancing and speaking-in-tongues (?) but once the kiddies leave for Sunday school the adult talks are usually pretty cool. Todays talk was about omnipotence (and my brain giggles at the thought of impotence. . .,) but the pastor there said something that really caught my attention and impressed me. He was talking about control, and how he was speaking to someone from another church who was talking about their own pastor, and how theyre used to their pastor making decisions for them. He said, "well I said to them, 'dont come to my church, because im not that kind of guy.'" He went on to talk about how its not his place to rule over people, because he's a person like everyone else, and that part made the entire talk great. You see, my bud-day Scott's, who is also pentecostal, church is the opposite of how he explained himself to be, and its because of that I have a deep underlying. . .erm. . .I can't think of the right word, but its not a hatred, just more of a skepticism toward the Pentecostal religion as a whole. My friend Chris (who is baptized into the religion through Scott but doesn't support it anymore) told me fo an instance when some girl in the church talked about cutting her hair, and the pastors wife slapped her in the face! I mean, what the fuck yknow?? But this guy managed to gain that religion some cool points back, and thats a really good thing to me.
