We're almost there and no where near it, all that matters is that we're going

So, I don't remember exactly when, but sometime this weekend, in the car (I vaguely remember we were on the way to the highschool) this song was on the radio. I don't know why I like it really. Sentimental attatchement I suppose. One of those 90s songs you hear on the radio and think back to another time. anyhoo, here are the lyrics ( Read more... )

I agree with everything you've said and, although some of it is news to me, I think on some level I've always known. My teachers at St. Thomas hated me. I would question their authority, and their faith, and they would stand up there and point at the book and at their curriculum like that was the answer. I sometimes wondered what it would be like if I took away their teacher's edition, what would be left of their knowledge. Anyway, we would have history lessons and such and there would be mention of the cruisades and then they'd turn around and teach us Catholocism, which is really this gigantic contradict. How can something that is supposed to be founded by God cause so much pain and sin? And it's not like I was questioning them to be a smart aleck or whatever, I honestly wanted to know. I still do. So I guess I don't really have an answer to your question 'what do you believe?' I know that I believe in God, and in Jesus. And maybe that's all I need. *shrugs* I don't know, I just really don't know. Right now I'm searching I suppose. For now I'm calling myself a Christian and a coward. The coward part is because I've yet to muster up enough courage to confront my parents about this. The family on my mother's side is Catholic. All of them. It's a huge Catholic family; to me it's almost something out of a horror movie. All of them reproducing and spawning more Catholic children who don't know any better who will in turn reproduce MORE catholics. It's a vicious cycle. You should see them at Thanksgiving. Anyhoo, the only people in my family who are openly not Catholic are my brother (and he's chicken because he never actually told anyone, just threw a fit and left and now he doesn't even really go to church except with his fiance who is...catholic) and my godmother. I admire her. It took a lot of guts for her to talk to my grandma about that, and she did it anyway. She goes to bible study, and for a while attended different types of Church services until she found the one that was for her. I'm pretty sure it's just a Christian church. I'm getting way off track here and probably boring you with these horror family stories so I guess my point is that I'm not sure yet what I believe. When I figure it out for myself I will let you know. Any scripture or inspirational thoughts are always welcome and appreciated.

Oh yeah... i love that song too. Jaron and I were talkin' about performing 'say it ain't so' by weezer for the Fine Arts shindig. Perhaps we could change it to an all 90's showcase.

Is that the spindoctors?

Re: The Catholic Church 7hakuna_matata7 February 23 2005, 03:04:16 UTC

Yea, spin doctors is the only version I've heard, but I think Del Amitri did a cover of it too...or mabye he wrote it and spindoctors did a cover. *shrugs* idk.
