if you want to read it then go there^

well i found this article through little effort, so whose to say if it is anything worth reading or not, but none the less, here i am still blogging about it.

so there is this old man from Austria who has evidently kept his daughter a prisoner for 24 years, while attempting to raise her 7 children.

recently they have charged him with homicide, because they believe that he abandoned one of the infants.

let us get this straight: he is 70 some years old, and has kept his daughter (now 42) prisoner for 24 years. so one of HIS DAUGHTERS infants ends up dying...hmm...i wonder who the father of that infant was if the mother was never with anyone but her father? EWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW!

i know right? this is sick. sick. sick. sick. sick.

that is all there is to say about this situation.

i am happy because the old nasty has now been charged with like a billion other things and he is for sure going to get in some trouble :)

personally (and this may seem extremely unfair) but i think that they should do to that old man exactly what he did to his poor daughter and grand children. wow i am a horrible person, but this really disturbs me...

let me know what you think

that is all.

Okay...here goes

this is not going to be me blogging about an article (like i am supposed to be doing) and you might not give me credit for it (brandi) but i am going to blog, instead, about something that has been bothering me.

hm.

sooo...i was at church last sunday and my pastor starts going off about how we christians are being too accepting when it comes to the "sin" that surrounds us.  

now please do not get me wrong, i love my religion and all, but this just seems EXTREMELY hypocritical.  we are all sinful right?  of course we are, it's human nature, and it is going to happen no matter how much you try to prevent it.  so what i am wondering is what is he really expecting us "christians" to do about the "sin" that surrounds us?  

it has came to a point in this world, that you cannot just go around telling people they need to accept jesus christ or they are going to hell.  yes, that may have worked a long time ago, but that is because a long time ago people were terrified because of their family's and church's constant pressure to be holy and pure.  but nowadays there are WAY too many other things to be afraid of.  the last thing people are worrying about is what will happen to them when they die.

i suppose what i am trying to say is that the only way "christians" are ever going to be able to help the lost, is by being accepting.  we are never going to reach them any other way.

okay...sorry about that.

that is all.
