[AmyJane]

Nope

[angelworks]

I don't know, but you're the reason i discovered stevia in the first place. If this stuff is any good, i'll save a bottle for you.

Yay!!!! Long live the pants.

Yul is about to turn 13 (OMFG) in a few months and he barely even speaks to anyone now.

My son moved back in after graduating from tech school.

He's nearly 20 and he's back to being a babbling psycho.

That's okay--- a have free mechanic for life!

Free, ya, after 25,000 for school.

i didnt find any mice today at work. i found mouse poop in the kitchen and on my desk the other day. kinda gross i guess, but at least i'm not so freaked out by it. people are so unjustifiably scared of mice. it makes no sense at all.

I think i got a little drunk last night. Not wasted, just a little zoned. I finished the last 3rd or so of a growler of crappy microbrew. I had a couple Saranac Pumpkins. A Riverhorse Hop Hazard. I also had that Trappist ale (which was actually brewed in 2006 and aged come to find out). Aside from the crap in the growler, all the other stuff was really good.

Can anyone explain to me who in the world would ever know if you were a regular Catholic churchgoer, but married a Jewish girl and "converted" so you could marry her, if you just decided to be both a Jew and a Christian? I mean for real, who in either house of worship would REALLY find out if you denounced Jesus to become a Jew for your wife? Do the rabbis get on the phone and call the Vatican to ban you from all churches? And than what if the marriage doesn't work out and you just want to go to the Catholic church again? They say you can get back in God and Jesus' good graces with a few "hail Mary's" and a sizable donation to the church. Now honestly, if you never told the church, how the heck would they know?

There, I gave you a subject. Tawk amongst yourselves. Discuss.

Join "Jews for Jesus". Jewish, and Jesus is still in your life. Problem solved

Well...as far as the mouse. Yuck. I'm not afraid, but they do carry disease. Funny story...one of my friends left her ink pad open on her desk one night and came in to find little blue footprints all over her desk

As far as the converting thing. It's not as simple as just saying "I want to switch religions for my future spouse." There is paperwork involved which, if you are a baptized Catholic, gets sent to the church you were baptized in. There's also tons of studying involved.
But first before any of that the Rabbis try to talk you out of it. And if you're persistent then eventually then you make it through the entire process. You have to be sincere in wanting it and the whole process can take a long time to finish.
You can't convert to Judaism and still believe in Jesus.
There is lots involved. It isn't just a matter of saying you want to become a Jew and BOOM! You're a Jew! It's a long, drawn out process which is probably meant to deter the people who really aren't serious about it.
You dont get banned from churches but Jews really aren't supposed to go to most other houses of worship and a true Catholic, I'm not sure would convert to Judaism, if they truly believed in Jesus. Being someone who isn't religious it might be hard to understand but I'm sure a devout Catholic, if they were to go through with something like this for someone they wanted to marry, would probably feel guilty because technically, they are doing something against their own religion and even if they made it through the whole process they would probably feel as if they were living a lie.

Sometimes I hate being in IT. We're among the first to know when someone gets canned, and it's not fun at all to be the one to disable peoples user accounts.

[AmyJane]

Oh and for the male converts who are not circumcized...guess what?

That's just crap though. It's nobody's business what you believe in. What sense is there in "pay to pray"? Churches are such bullcrap. EVERY church has at least one group of people they don't let in and than if they do, they want your hard earned money.

I need more beer.

I don't think that's true. I think most religions will let anyone from another religion in and I don't think it's about money. To a lot of people religion is very important and the heads of these places of worship want to make sure that the people who are wanting to convert are serious about it. To some people, religion can be just a passing phase and they want to weed those people out. Sure they ask for money but that's because they don't have any other type of income. They rely mostly on donations and charity events. It costs money to maintain a building. They need electric, water, plumbling, heat, repairs and the people who work in them, most of them are volunteer. Churches, for instance, the Priests need to be taken care of. Medical, food, clothing, the things that any other human needs. I'm sure there are churches out there that give their priests too much. For instance, a church I went to nearby, I saw one of the priests, a young guy, leave in a Chrysler Crossfire. I'm not sure if it was his but he was driving it like it was.
I guess what I'm saying is I dont totally disagree with you but I think you're wrong about the hoops that people need to jump through to change religions. It really doesnt cost a lot of money. They make you spend more time than they do money to switch.

And if you're already circumcized they still have a Bris and the Mohel takes a drop of blood (from there) instead.

You can't denounce if you don't believe. Don't denounce yourself
