"Who's Pope Benedict?!"

Hey, Rosenda added me on Facebook - cool stuff! :D

I've also heard that Michelle Duggar is due to give birth to her 18th child... wonder what J name she'll choose this time! o_O

Took the bus to church, and talked to Johnny / Dylan / Stanley in the basement about guitars / jazz / working. Dylan had a HUGE sandwich that he got from Superstore - of course it was big enough for two meals, so he couldn't finish it! Dawn had a suitably short birthday speech for Jen, Andrea gave us some chocolate caramel Rice Krispie Squares from Derek as a token of his appreciation, Karen gave us a decadent Chocolate Sinner cake with strawberries and BBQ rice chips, and Raymond / Steph / Rich and I talked about the Timothy kids' JEOPARDY performance. They answered all the pop culture questions (SIMPSONS trivia!), and didn't want to answer the Bible questions... even though they'd been studying them for three months! Their listening skills could use some work, though...

*picture of Pope Benedict is shown, as part of WHO AM I? category*
*first three groups answer POPE JOHN PAUL!* ("but he died!") Hahaha.

That aside, it was still an amusing Bible Study. Steph broke out "Let's talk about sex, baby!" (of COURSE she remembers that song!) before we separated into our groups. Jeremy had some stuff to say from his parents' point of view - enjoying a sexual relationship within the context of marriage is one thing, but God doesn't just turn his back while you do that. There was a verse (Proverbs 6:25) about being on guard against adulteresses who try to captivate men with their eyes. Jeremy's translation rendered that as "... or capture you with her eyelids" - when he was reading that, I snorted with amusement. He broke off and commented, "I thought you'd find that funny!" Too right! Certainly an interesting discussion, to be sure! Steph and I went home with Pastor John since we didn't feel like going out with Sam, Ivan, Jon, and others. Talked about the Red Wings / RCMP red / white flowers, our Bible Study discussions, weekend plans, and more - very refreshing!

Speaking of religion going digital, have you seen this site where people confess online, anonymously? http://iconfessmyself.blogspot.com
