I love that song...... but I'm not old enough to remember when it first came out, I'd wager.

Just bugs the heck out of me that there are so many young people around here............................................:p...............:D








Remember I am only a few years older then SG and she is young:)

Uh-oh...I played that one, when it first came out, on a transistor radio. Oh, dear, itty  the cat(Avatar, folks. I have a strangely vivid imagination.) looks at her spot and stripes.  More gray than spots and stripes these days. Good thing I have so little hair.;)

I too think most moderates, of any religious/spiritual affiliation are more focused on the doing and not on the chest pounding. I do see some of  the extremes as doing just that. Some for the attention. Some to beat others about the head and shoulders.

I have friends across all spectrums of faith. There is a small Church of Christ near where I live. I am good friends with the pastor. She jokes that she is going to win another soul and I am trying to convince her to go to a public ritual.  LOL....Its good natured fun.

I live in a rural part of the midwest. After some fifty years I've gotten to know a lot of people here. I am quite fortunate that I have no issues with respect to my faith and my sexuality. Everyone around here knows me and expects me to be strange. They would be disappointed if I weren't. I am not calling my faith or my sexuality strange. I am saying however I have always been the Woman Who Walks Her Own Way.
