Re: Do we serve a "gotchya!" God?

Some of us cannot even see God through all of the rules and regulations... it is just a religion of the god of "Don't"... and you get more points the more things that you can think of to make rules against. The person with the most rules wins... Whoopie!

Reading some of the people's posts, it seems that they are excited when they find something new to preach against (except for the internet - it has a divine exception)... it may actually be easier to make a list of things that are NOT wrong... let's see:

Eating (definitely first on the list)
Shopping for church clothes
Reading the Bible (at least 4 hours a day)
Church (never enough church - Glooooorrraaaay!)
Prayer (at least 4 hours a day)
Sleeping (in moderation)
Work (only enough to barely support your family, and have a wardrobe about two paygrades above your actual income... anything else would be greed)
Thinking (only within the safe boundaries that the pastor allows, and only if you have time left over from the items above it on the list... if you do have time to think, you are probably not doing something else on the list often enough...)

Pretty much anything beyond this list falls into the "glorifying self" category.
