How Many Angels Can Dance On The Head Of A Pin?

 It depends on who ya ask, I guess? It’s probably a question ya shouldn’t ask, maybe? I am an expert on shitlib atheist thought. I should be - I was raised by them and surrounded by them most of my adult life. But you know how it goes with those people: the wheels start falling off their buses, their lives get train wrecked (or worse, they train wreck the lives of others) - and none of the carnage is ever their own fault. They are the eternal victims, it’s all your fault or society’s fault because you’re all mean and stupid and don’t care about them. You’re the bad guy, not them!!!!

I had begun watching a lot of the Christians locally about 20 years ago. I was embroiled in non-stop turmoil and drama in my family but those Christians… welp… they didn’t have problems like my family was having. And as my circumstances worsened I began to wonder why. If I expressed my doubts openly I was mocked and derided by my family - especially the women. “Christians are brain dead sheep and cattle that don’t think for themselves. Their preachers are all hucksters and grifters. Half of their idiot traditions are based on paganism… blah, blah, blah…”

I would come to learn that was not all that true. In fact, a lot of that hog wash was mostly projection. I can see why the liberal womenfolk were so adamantly opposed - people with a conscience cannot be controlled … or manipulated. I converted late in life and my wife found an alternate family for us at a little chapel out in the country. To be fair, there’s a LOT wrong with the modern churches - one only needs to watch the antics out of the Vatican… or the latest fiascos coming from *aggot Island Britain… the Church of England has been a circus tent for a long, long time. It’s so bad that the Christians are leaving their church to the clowns. I don’t blame them one bit! 

One thing that did turn me off were dogmatic disagreements among Christians. Some of it involves the stupidest shit too. One fella claimed that the Sabbath was actually on Friday and if I attended services on Sunday.. I was going to go to hell for being a bad person. An atheist told me everything from Christmas on down… was stolen by Christians from paganism. When I asked for proof I was told that I was a bad person and stupid. Whatever.

I found the enclosed video interesting. I don’t get hung up on dogma or denominational divisions. I acknowledge that there is a LOT seriously wrong with the concept of Christmas today. I don’t care; the stubfart preacher at our church once said, “There is no such thing as ‘church doctrine’, there is only God’s Doctrine…”.

God doesn’t talk to me. I consider myself lucky that I can sometimes see His hand move as He goes about His business. I’m not going to tell anyone what to believe or try to speak for my Maker. He will reckon with you the same as He will with me. In the absence of His direct involvement… sometimes all I can do is guess at His intent. I am often stymied trying to figure out what He is up to; often it’s beyond me.

If you’re like me, all you can do is search out your own facts and do the best ya can. I’m intrigued by this kid and think he’s worth fact checking. Your mileage may vary. If you have anything worth adding… feel free in the comments. 

Not sure I disagree or agree with anything here…

But his approach seems sound on the face of it.

But whadda I know?
