Exactly how natural it is for me, as well. However, I don't do the 'seatbelt' thing as much as I should.

People that demean others with a false attitude of sweetness to try to cover their true spirit. Gossiper's, if you listen to it and are not careful it can get into your spirit and make you feel so bad.

Both of these!!!!!

I don't like pretense, or someone being false!
I also don't like politics being played both in the Church or out.

In other words--"BE REAL!"

I wouldn't disfellowship anybody over it. I strongly teach my young ministers to respect it to the point that if I see something on their Bible they 'know' my displeasure.

Does this mean you don't put anything on top of your monitor or PC case if you have an electronic bible installed?

dittos for me= I don't put anything on top of my Bible. I don't sit my Bible on the floor, either. Y'all aren't so weird after all becaue when it comes to writing anything that has to do with God, I will capitalize it also.

Convictions for me? I do not use slang curse words nor do I let my children. This is probably one that goes without saying, but I see no difference in saying the real cuss word or the slang. It all means the same.

My family does not swear either. One of my children said, "I swear" and it just went all over me. He's heard it from somewhere and I explained we don't say that.

We may be get upset or something and say, "oh man!" but we will NOT let any of our children say God's name in vain, or ever geesh or gosh. ( forgive me for writing it) Under no circumstances is that appropiate.

One of my major pet peeves is hearing Christians say, "Oh my God". I have worked my kids over on that one, and they are grown. But I will not allow it to be said around me. It's a very hard habit to break, especially when you hear so many preachers say it too.

Also, I can't stand "I swear". That one is a no-no in my house too.

This is a definite given but we will pray before every single meal even at restaurants. Even if it's just a sandwich or a bowl of cereal. I don't like unthankfullness. However, I must admit that when I am at the mexican restaurant, I am a post chip prayer!

I know....why is it that we can eat the chips (or rolls) and feel justified in praying when the main course comes????
