I have an idea, what do you think.

I have noticed that other foums, such as the Catholic and Anglican forums are on "Quests for the Holy Grail" in the armory. Apparently what they do is, they elected a person to keep the blessings and they all donate blessings to that person and when they get 1,000,000 blessings they will buy the Holy Grail and it will be displayed in the person that is keeping the blessings posts. I think that we could do the same thing, except with the 10 commandments. What do you think? We could vote on who we trust to save the blessings and everything.

We are a mite bit too selfish around here, Hungree. You might be able to talk us into it!

And welcome to CF, btw!

Sorry, images of Monty Python keep popping in my head.

And I second that welcome. Glad to have you here!

I don't know what would be valued to this forum - the Baptist might bite on the big ten. But we all like the Word of God in this forum, and most have our own Bible. If we had a WOF marker or Charismatic marker for the group it would be nice. But the 'quest for the Holy Grail' is a hoot, I hope they are having fun with it.

How about a "Quest for the Alabaster oil"?

Why the ten commandments? Why not the cross?
Or has the cross been milked of all it's symbolism already? We add to it, ornate it, twist it, colour it, outline it, put a tulip on it, the orthodox have an extra piece on it, the catholics have expanded it, the pentecostals have a dove on it.
Etc etc.

I may be too cynical, but why do we have this need of facelifting even our posts and internet personas? "Blessing" each other through mouse clicks, buying "armour of God" as if they were car parts.

stupid slow forum sofware

Monty Python and the Holy Grail. Came out about 30 years ago, or so.

I was thinking about the oil because that's what Mary anointed Christ's feet with, and isn't that our purpose, to annoint the Christ with worship and love?

Judging by your signature, this is quite a pet peeve of yours. I can see your point, but don't think it's such a major deal. I don't think anyone really thinks they're buying anything real.

Point taken. I needed to calm down.

 

[BUTTERS]

Uhhh....
gee fellas... isn't that kind of like soliciting blessings?
I sure would not want to break any rules....
I'd be in big trouble for that.

Wow! I bet you call yourself a realist. I try to be an optimist.
