this makes me sick

what is it about this show that makes me sick and joyful all at the same time? the premise is you take two families that are completely different and switch the moms for 2 weeks. 1 week they have to comply with the families' rules and the next they get to make up their own. there's fighting and yelling and complete and utter disrespect but yet at the end, both families usually learn from their mistakes…and then the religious zealot comes into the scene.

this person embodies why i used to be so bitter towards "Christians". this is why i never wanted anything to do with the church. their blatant judgements and unlove still astound me. when i think of what CHRIST did on this earth, how HE cared for all of the lowly, downtrodden and untouchables it fills me with compassion. and yet here is just another 'christian' spreading the message of intolerance, hatred, judgement and condemnation in how many households across the world? google marguerite perrin and unfortunately you'll run into tons of bloggers saying this is why they stay away from the church. i know how they feel. the church has failed us in so many ways. there are some amazing churches in this fallen world, i was lead to one of them, but for the majority, they're producing belligerent, intolerant fools who spread the gospel of hate instead of JESUS' message of unfailing love, compassion and forgiveness.

i think it will always amaze me how self proclaimed 'christians' treat others. how ideals are shoved down peoples throat in the name of god. i think the minute marguerite perrin or the countless other belligerent 'christians' in this world open their mouth to let hatred fall out, JESUS cries. there is so much hatred in this world.

what's ironic, is the husband who had to be around this disrespectful woman was one of the most compassionate men that i've seen in a while. what's ironic is this man who is not a believer was 100 times more CHRIST like then the 'christian'. i can only hope that she'll learn from his action. maybe by looking at the actions of non-believer, we may become better examples of CHRISTs love.

I agree mandie watched that show and I didnt but I agree the thing you need to remember is that every christian church no matter how far off they are in their actions is doing what they beleive God is calling them to do so my task foir you is to pray long and hard for the opening of the eyes and hearts of all the churches lost in their own confusion
