Our unplanned lesson in LIFE groups last night was definitely something worth blogging about. So we were supposed to learn about curses or something, but someone kept asking questions.

Pastor Ryan basically was like Jesus could be a Lunatic, a Liar, or the Lord...because all of those are very possible. Basically, we can't prove scripture with other scripture because he could write a book and it could say "Ryan Russel is always right and everything he's written is true." but that doesn't necessarily make it a true book...then he goes on to tell us that we can prove that Jesus died on the cross, and besides Judas, 10 out of the 11 remaining died for what they believed in. John didn't die because they couldn't kill him, so they shipped him off to a prison island. If Jesus wasn't the Lord, then they would probably back out of following Him, dying for what they believed in. I just thought that was an interesting perspective.

and then Shane passed out and hit his head and didn't remember anything for 10 mins before that, thanks to Seth.

Okay, I decided to use blogspot again for the fact that everyone has one, and it's easier to connect with people on here.

So I've been paying really close attention to politics lately, since it's my first year that I'm allowed to vote and I'd rather know the details on who I'm voting for rather than blindly pick a candidate for a dumb reason. One thing I really noticed is that the candidates and journalists go above and beyond to dig up dirt on their opponents/candidates. For example, I like to read the news and I get it on my cell phone...One of the titles of the article was "Sarah Palin's town made people pay for such and such an examination." And it's her fault how? This made me really think. Isn't it kinda cool how Jesus knows all the dirt on us, everything we ever did and will do, but still loves us the same? Nothing we do wrong could make Him love us any less.
