the adventures of skeptical-man

I don't know what my deal is. But every time I get around a Christian setting I turn into SKEPTICAL-MAN. Who's super powers involve making me judge everyone, critique their theological discrepancies, and label those around me. For example, this morning a friend of mine said the phrase while praying, "I hope that we can make Christianity more attractive." All I could think of after that is how we shouldn't need need make Christianity attractive. We don't need to dress it up and put make-up on it in order to make a sale. That truth should speak for itself. That Christ's life/my life should speak for itself.

Then after giving a mini-sermon to myself and making me feel superior...I realized my own stupidity and felt annoyance for most of the morning.

I feel like Ross in FRIENDS when he keeps correcting people's grammar (except it's in my head). I hate that about myself. SKEPTICAL-MAN needs to be defeated by JUST-CHILL-AND-ENJOY-STUFF-MAN.

This is a story about two boys who have just recently lost both parents. However, living a hundred or so, miles apart, even so, meet within an area where many were striking it rich.
This was happening within, which later, became known as, the 18th Century goldfields.

Both did suffer many adverse circumstances, yet, finally came through them all. At the same time, came into a most happy life style. Calhoun, has married his most beloved childhood girlfriend, his partner Jake, has married her best girlfriend. So as a result, life is wonderful for Calhoun and Jake. So much so, that they had soon forgotten all of their past sufferings, and hardships.
