    Catholic by baptism although I quit believing in church and the bible and the sign of the cross and holy water and holy communion and confession and heaven and hell.
    So I guess now I'm nothing....and I like it!

    well I guess it would be nice
    if I could touch your body
    I know not everybody
    has got a body like you

    but I've got to think twice
    before I give my heart away
    and I know all the games you play
    because I play them too

    oh but I
    need some time off from that emotion
    time to pick my heart up off the floor
    and when that love comes down
    without devotion
    well it takes a strong man baby
    but I'm showing you the door
    'cause I've gotta have faith

    baby
    I know you're asking me to stay
    say please please please don't go away
    you say I'm giving you the blues
    maybe
    you mean every word you say
    can't help but think of yesterday
    and another one who tied me down to
    loverboy rules

    before this river becomes an ocean
    before you throw my heart back on the floor
    oh baby I reconsider
    my foolish notion
    well I need someone to hold me
    but I'll wait for something more

    yes I've gotta have faith...

    Eclecticism : This is that philosophy of religion which refuses to accept any one system of doctrine, but seeks to take the so-called best from all systems of belief. Eclectics, at least outwardly, seek to be fair to all and therefore yield to all.

    Latitudinarianism : This is that system of religion which cares little about creeds or doctrine. In this system sincerity is more important than what is believed. But as above, it opens the door for anything.

    Syncretism : This system seeks to unite all opposing theological and philosophical positions by arriving at a common denominator or by coming to a new synthesis.

    Of course I consider these examples to be blasphemy since I'm a born again Christian whose faith lies in God's grace, not in my own works. He seeked me out, and found me.

    How Rude, why isn't Beer up there, meeza thinks that is discrimatory!!!


    The Beer Prayer

    Our Lager,
    Which art in barrels,
    Hallowed be thy drink.

    Thy will be drunk At home as it is in tavern.

    Give us this day our foamy head,
    And forgive us our spillages,
    As we forgive those who spill against us.

    And lead us not into incarceration,
    But deliver us from hangovers.

    For thine is the beer, the bitter, the lager.

    For ever and ever Barmen
