Neither is easy to find but not locked up as nobody lives with me and few visit. I know how to shoot both but I would probably just lay either up alongside an intruder's head. The pistol would cause damage and I'm an accurate thrower. 8-)<br /><br />I don't understand the fear that seems to grip so many who believe they must own and carry a gun.

Personally I can't understand all the fuss about sex. How can they have time to worry about what people do in their bedrooms if they are busy feeding, sheltering, etc.? Or why people emphasize parts of the Bible and ignore others when it suits their prejudice. I could say lots about the cons who stayed with the DioPgh and post on the HoB/D but I'll be brief. When they and we had a joint gathering our people came back wondering if those men ever looked at scholarship and history about the Bible. They are living in the 19th century. But we can be friendly as long as they don't try to steal the silver. They don't seem to agree about that either.PseudoPiskiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12070541512355253553noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37235817.post-67628894439016857282012-03-26T22:15:49.665-05:002012-03-26T22:15:49.665-05:00I see your teenager, and raise you mine!

I have to say, though, I do not see how ordination could be anything but an impediment to such. Forget about those procedures -- you give them too much power and importance -- and go out there and live into the priesthood you already have! XO.

In Austin there's a large community of people who simply don't want a house or the hassles that go with living in one. They fancy themselves artists and/or free spirits. Maybe a few are a little nuts, but not much, and they are happy with their lives. Just like in your town, though, there's always someone coming along trying to make it illegal for them to exist. I agree that they have to stay on land that doesn't belong to someone else, and that is a big problem. And, especially now that Texas has such dry conditions, I want cooking and heating done safely. But I really think that if social service agencies work WITH these people, instead of against them, they can be allowed to live safely any way they want. Problem is, they want to control them. Sad. I hope your friends get to stay in their homes.Lindyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04662429826507775390noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37235817.post-63028338284995690342011-08-29T22:30:25.536-05:002011-08-29T22:30:25.536-05:00Oh, PseudoPiskie, I so hope to come that way again...Oh, PseudoPiskie, I so hope to come that way again.

It is the only church I know of that has no anxiety. If you ever come this way again, check out <a href="http://www.holycrossne.org/" rel="nofollow">Holy Cross</a> in North East, PA, just up the road from the Benedictines. They seem to be able to do everything they dream up regardless of the expense. And they tithe to outreach. Of course it took them many years to get to this place. I don't know if I can guide our parish in that direction but I'm trying. If our attitude doesn't change this fall, I may resign and drive the 70 miles to be part of a parish that works.PseudoPiskiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12070541512355253553noreply@blogger.com
