It appears that God actually cares wether you get your snack food or not.
Car tires can pop off in 35 below.
My sister can decorate christmas trees far better than I can.
I made a dangerous statement yesterday, and after a great deal of thought, both my husband and I sticking by it.

Except that a great many chapters of the New Testament involve the apostles coming to the conclusion that, no, new converts do NOT have to be Jews.
And suffering for your faith? not likely, I'm thinking. Not in a culture that is more than 3/4 Christian, at least culturally. But good luck on it.
ahhh, the perfect time for a debate to pop up on the 'true jew' vs a 'jew according to the flesh'...
so am i a jew? yup. by faith, credited to me as it was by my forefather in the faith, abraham...! outwardly, according to the flesh, no... by the circumcision of the heart, yes.
*and now runs away as fast as her little pudgy legs can carry her...*
circumcision of the heart
O_O
That sounds painful. No, I have nothing else to add about a topic I know *nothing* about. :D
oh yay! A No True Scotsman argument! A Jew is a Jew. Ethnicly, religiously or simply by identification. Anything else is negating someone's identity, which I am not prepared to do.
I'm not a Jew, No intention of being. I'm not even one of YHWH's people, Again, no intention of being, although I tried very hard for many years, until it became clear he was having nothing to do with me, because I belonged to another god.
