It’s something that’s very hard for me to understand, this weird dichotomy between the wonderful official moral stances, and the personal beliefs of the folks in the pews. It’s like they don’t care that it doesn’t match and that’s just hard for me to understand. I grew up with a background that said if your personal moral beliefs differ from your church’s, one or the other of you is wrong and something needs to be done about that.

Came home yesterday to find almost all of my chickens overcome with heat. We’d butchered four over the weekend so sixteen birds were laying around half dead. I sprayed them with the hose and thirteen of them perked up, two of them remained unconscious and one died. I kept the hose running on the other two and they finally came around but couldn’t stand so Steve butchered them when he got home.

Whew...coulda been worse. A few more minutes and they would’ve all died, probably. I’m going to spray them periodically today.

Ugh...just went out and checked on the rabbits. Hyacinth’s entire litter was dead. I checked them yesterday morning and they were fine.

Our Rose’s are doing ok, but Our Rose has been a good mom all along...Hycinth seems kinda clueless.

That's true of most Christians, but as I mentioned before, humans are very good at justifying our behavior, and thinking that it's OK for us, even though we know it's not.
