I act...Thank you for your comments Pete and Brian. I actually intended the post to be both humorous and serious. I just didn't want to appear to be flippant with spiritual issues, which is why I wrote my clarification, not because I misunderstood Pete's comment.<BR/><BR/>The preacher's bombing statement is my interpretation of what he was saying and not his exact words, although my interpretation is not very far off from his actual words. The preacher is a popular one. I think I may have been one of the only ones who had a problem with what he was saying. Everyone else was applauding. Scary.Aaron D.

OF COURSE I don't mean to imply that you are odd...I was actually just trying to flat out say it : ). Seriously, your post had me laughing, I just wasn't sure I was supposed to be.<BR/>PeteAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23067594.post-88113433067822401802007-06-22T11:05:00.000-07:002007-06-22T11:05:00.000-07:00Aaron,Good news for you.

The online free dictionary defines interesting as: “arousing or holding the attention” It also offers words such as stimulating and exciting! I think what Pete was trying to say was, “Aaron, you are one arousing, exciting, stimulating guy whose blogging holds my attention!” In fact, I didn’t see one mention of the word odd! <BR/><BR/>Pete…is that what you were really trying to communicate? *grin*<BR/><BR/>I am surprised that you went back to hear the preacher again after his comment about the bombing.<BR/><BR/>Bless you!Kingdom Shiftshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06394870028499539329noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23067594.post-8936914126978112512007-06-22T09:41:00.000-07:002007-06-22T09:41:00.000-07:00After reading my post, I realize that what I wrote...After reading my post, I realize that what I wrote probably came off a little too tongue and cheek as if I was being flippant about spiritual issues. The point I was trying to make is two-fold.<BR/><BR/>1. Don't throw out the baby with the bath water.<BR/><BR/>2. There really is power in speaking God's Word.Aaron D.
