I find this blog very interesting indeed. 🙂 The following is said in a way that I like very much:
“Because humans have added their doctrines to the pure principles set out in the Bible, religion has become more man-centered. Once humans become the center of worship, worship becomes highly flawed.

Total score: __________________________________________
Thank you for coming to my lecture.
When I heard we were going to take a last-minute trip out of town, and I was promised some alone time in the hotel room, I decided the time was…
