7 june

Last weekend was really shitty. Except making my "baby blog", I didnt do anything useful or constructive. Im having mood swings. Dont know is it because of the weather or just PMS, but I do know I don't like it. Its exam period, I should be studying like crazy, there are zillion things I need to do for AIESEC, and Im not doing anything!

So why the hell Im I making a new post today? To make a habit of writing this blog every day? To just get my thoughts out? (What thoughts?! I feel like Im brain-dead for last few days!)

unfortunately for some people, I had few thoughts yesterday...They made my day! :-D


For some reason I went to the church yesterday. Not during the mass or anything, just went inside, sat for a while, looked around. And then I run into a priest. First we were taking about the architecture and then slowly moved on the religious topic. At the begging our conversation was quite interesting and he seemed like a nice dude. But when we touched the religious topic...he turned into a completely different person! It was amazing.
My cocky character of course, didn't allow me to just stop that conversation and leave, I had to start making "problems". I found out this a very good way of getting back faith in yourself and improving your mood...you will see how...

Just a short notice...Im not a very religious person. I respect other people choice and all religious. But my decision is not to be active in any of them. I will explain the reasons some other time. Maybe.

So...somehow...the priest starts to talk to me about journey to Damask. Its that part of The Bible where St Pavao gets enlightened .
Shortly?the guys name was Savao, he was a farisey and roman citizen who was chasing Christians. Then he went to Damask, fell off the horse, got blind and by the way got enlightened. After that he was able to see again, became Pavao and now he was chased.

And why did he tell me this story,so I realize that all people should pray to live the same destiny like Savao. (???)

Then I asked him is it true that st Pavao is to be blamed for women not being able to be priests? Since he couldnt get rid of farisey inheritance and thought women do not belong in front of oltar, although Jesus didnt give any reason to think that women should be treated differently that man?
And the priest starts to stutter but he managed to get out of that question.

Of course, I still didnt have enough,my next question was is it true the Church started with celibate so its treasure wouldnt be spread on priests families, although Jesus didnt say anything about that as well?
The priest started to change colors and my mood was getting better and better.

He answered something how I shouldnt question the Church laws,I was just waiting for that to ask him another question...Why is there an affair every now and than with pedophilia in the Church?

At this point he got totally pissed and told me that Im here only to provoke and that its a sin. He actually asked me to go out of the church!

That gave me a perfect opportunity for the grand finale. I told him...reverent, Im just asking you questions about things Im interested in, and you are kicking me out of the church!? Shouldnt Church be spiritual and full of understanding? And you r kicking me out, instead taking little wondering sheep under your wing and enlightening me?
At that point I turned around and left. He just stood there with ought a word, just changing colors and being totally pissed!

When I got out of the church I was laughing like crazy!

I found out this to be one of the best ways of improving your mood. There are so many people who are believing things with ought questioning them and with ought using their brains so at some point you start to feel great just knowing you are not like them.
And you have some fun! :-D
