So I was reading the news (maybe I should stop because I have found several articles that have made me suddenly turn "passionate" as I like to say) and there was this article:
http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/34484153/ns/technology_and_science-tech_and_gadgets/
It's about a Florida Mom who twittered for prayers after her son was found drowning in a pool. People are all up in arms over this one! They think she was irresponsible for tweeting within an hour of the incident and that maybe her tweeting caused her to be negligent about her son. Seriously?!?! If anything I think this article just shows the need for community. We long to not be alone. We long for support. If we find it through a simple tweet ... so. It's not like she was giving the gory details. She was reaching out - asking for ... what? ... prayers?!?! NO!!! Not those! Seriously, how long does it take to send a tweet anyway? Like seconds... So I find this article and her harassment annoying. Get over it people! Just because you can't relate doesn't mean you need to bash the poor woman! She's already lost more than most of us (thankfully) will ever understand.
And the "other" article that I won't even comment on (lest you be here all night reading my rantings and raving):
http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/34493087/ns/us_news-faith/
S-E-R-I-O-U-S-L-Y? Can we not call a sin and sin? What is the church coming to? The End Times are near dear friends. Better be ready! *I do warn you to actually read the entire article, the name is not exactly what it seems*
