It’s Been A While

So, it has been about 7 months since I last wrote anything on here. A lot has happened. I haven’t forgotten about my blog. I will write more when I get a chance.

Oh Happy Day

So, I was a little bored and decided to create a smiley face from my daily pill allowance. Enjoy

Fruits Of Our Labour – Literally

So, today we decided that we were gonna make some strawberry jam. Here is a pic of the finished product. Easy as anything – no more than 30 mins went into preparing it

Just My Luck

I have decided to try a different way of posting. I am going to post a picture a day, something that I think is a good reminder of the day.

So, I thought I was on to a winner yesterday when I came back from doing some chores. I saw some money lyin gon the ground. I went over and picked it up. It was a symbol of my luck. You will see why it wasn’t so lucky from the picture below.

My Religious Musings

Let me preface this post by saying that I am in no way against religion.

I was watching – I say watching, listening as I was in another room – John & Kate Plus 8 this evening. Kate made a comment about religion that made me laugh and also made me think.

Her comment was that her religion is non judgemental. This made me chuckle and I made a comment about being a Mormon. It also set me thinking.

Religion by it’s very nature and design is judgemental. It is through these judgements that we keep ourselves in the right way. It is by these judgements that our very moral fibre is woven.

We are taught from very early on about the commandments – the set of rules that govern our morality. These are the rules with which we must be judged. These judgements do not come more so than when one is involved in religion. It may come from ourselves our it may need to come from those in authority.

These moral rules can be found in the book of Exodus, 20th Chapter, verses 3 through to 20 in the Old Testament.

As we base our morailty on these commandments, one can only deduce that religion by it’s very design is judgemental.
