    Can somebody please answer me this question? Who died first Jesus or God?

    Think that's tricky, try explaining to a 6yr old boy why Mummy is not a christian and is a pagan and how God is not in heaven but is everywhere? While trying to keep him beleiving in what he beleives in and explaining that no, mummy won't go to hell and wanting to kill whoever put the idea in his head that if you don't beleive in god you go to hell, in the first place while getting dirty looks from people because you admitted to not beleiving in God.... *gasps for breath*

    I have 10mins before I have to go collect DS1 from school at 2.45 and DS2 from nursery at 3pm (in another village, 15mins away) plus it is raining and raining windy and raining and windy and the car is getting all blown about.

    Just finished polishing and vacuuming. I'm going to attempt HHI before picking the kids up.

    Need to think of a nice recipe for the salmon fillets I got out of the freezer yesterday.

    Any suggestions?

    Chop them into chunks.. stir fry with .. mange tout, orange peppers, carrots, baby sweetcorn a splash of soy sauce, couple of cloves of garlic.. when cooked throw in thin cooked noodles and serve with salad... YUM!!

    To die for.. and no pasta in sight! lol

    One of mine had a real big 'thing' on about hell. the one with Aspergers of course.. my reply was.. God forgives all sins. I also believe God (if there is such an entity') is actually 'life force' therefore in everything that has life.. and that yes I believe in 'god' in that sense rather than a being which is all powerful.

    We also had huge problems with one of the kn0bheads at church who argued with my oldest then aged 13 about genesis and the creation of the earth etc.. he insisted it was 7 x 24 hour days and wouldn't even entertain the idea of time being relative and if God was so good he could make 1 day a thousand years if he so wished.. he doesn't work in the childrens groups any more ..;) .. I don't go because I think they all talk bollarcs.. and they are SO homophobic!! :eek: to the point it made me want to be gay so I could sue them!! Reading some of the sermons online I would have had to leap up in the middle of his bull and shout at him lol.. Good job I was at home!

Iwas doing sooo well until I got to the bit where I had to clear my beadies off the kitchen table, then found beading instead, and made two fabulous necklaces :rolleyes: (which I can't figure out how to upload to show), and my house is still a pigsty. Am off to stand in the corner and hang my head in shame:rotfl: . Notice not to finish yesterdays list. leagueoflight_haha.gif
