Don't Read If Your Under 16, Seriously by morayo15(f): 4:39pm On Jul 20, 2007
Why do we sleep in church,
But stay awake through a 2 hour movie?
Why is it so hard to talk about God,
but so easy to talk about sex?
Why are we so bored when we look at a Christian magazine,
but find it easy to read Playboy?
Why is it so easy to ignore a Godly myspace message,
Yet we repost the nasty ones?
Why are churches getting smaller,
But bars and clubs are growing?
Think about it, are you going to repost this?
Are you going to ignore it, cause you think you'll get laughed at?

@morayo15,

Why is it so hard to talk about God,
but so easy to talk about sex?
The same reason why it is so easy for you to put a 'sexy' picture on your profile instead of one depicting your faith! wink

Capturing Interest. Movies - the good ones - are designed to captivate us with engaging storylines, moving plots and shiny things. Churches on the other hand - usually on Sunday mornings, too - rely, mostly, on someone speaking monotonously for a good while.

Why is it so hard to talk about God,
but so easy to talk about sex?

I don't know about it being easy to talk about sex, but I'd guess that those who find it easy do so because the joy of sex is more strengthening that the joy of the unseen.

Why are we so bored when we look at a Christian magazine,
but find it easy to read Playboy?

Instinct. A good deal of our instincts are geared towards sexual arousal.

P.S. Did you say READ playboy?

Why is it so easy to ignore a Godly myspace message,
Yet we repost the nasty ones?

The latter is more interesting and less sanctimonious.

Why are churches getting smaller,
But bars and clubs are growing?


I don't think that's necessarily true, but if we assume it is, then I'd say, perhaps people are coming to their senses?

Am I gonna repost it? Good grief, no. Heaven knows I should have ignored it.

So you mislead us with the thread title? Think of the over thirteens, less sixteens, that are missing out now. Boo!

Yeah, but since God is omniscient, it won't matter anyway.
