Pete's Log: beer beer beer church
Entry #967, (Life in General)(posted when I was 22 years old.)
ok, so there's two possibilities: whoever told me that the Mormons had shortened their name to "The Church of Jesus Christ" was lying to me, or the people in charge of tv advertising for the Mormons were not informed of the name change. I just saw an ad for the "Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints" ...
Dear Mojo... I like saturday night tv. "a football game without iced beer is like a soccer game without warm beer" ... oh lordy. I worry that tonight I may write things that may offend some. You see, I just got back from the easter vigil, and therefore lent is over, so I kinda have a buzz going off of one beer. Six weeks of abstinence have lowered my tolerance, it seems. And I've some religious issues I want off my chest. If I was smart, I'd wait till tomorrow when I'm feeling clearheaded, but as I may or may not have already told you, I'm not particularly intelligent. So I'll have another beer and begin a rant. I doubt if it will make much sense.
So I went to the easter vigil mass at the basilica with mi familia. It was absurdly long. I cannot imagine that an omnibenevolent God would expect anyone to sit through that. But the church seems, as usual, not to share my opinion. I actually found myself thinking today that I'm glad I'm not confirmed. The Catholic church and I just have too many differences of opinion. I also decided that the old testament just isn't part of my belief system.
ok, I just realized I'm too tired to continue whatever trains of thought I had going, since I've been staring at this log entry for a while now. Maybe I'll continue this later...
