Welcome to Varied Expressions of Worship

Welcome to Varied Expressions of Worship

This blog will be written from an orthodox Christian point of view. There may be some topic that is out of bounds, but at present I don't know what it will be. Politics is a part of life. Theology and philosophy are disciplines that we all participate in even if we don't think so. The Bible has a lot to say about economics. How about self defense? Is war ethical? Think of all the things that someone tells you we should not touch and let's give it a try. Everything that is a part of life should be an expression of worship.

Keep it courteous and be kind to those less blessed than you, but by all means don't worry about agreeing. We learn more when we get backed into a corner.

Opus 2024-220: ocd Not OCD

This comes to mind from measuring honey into my oatmeal.  I shoot for 15 g.  If it stops at 14, I’m good.  If it goes beyond 15 I realize I can’t stick it back in the bottle and so I just enjoy it.  Some people would think I get a little carried away weighing my oatmeal, honey, popcorn and so forth.

I am not really OCD.  If I were really OCD I would keep charts and graphs of everything I have eaten over the past ten years and have averages and totals all laid out.  I would find a way to take that extra gram of honey out of the oatmeal and feel very righteous about it.  I would pity those of you who are not as disciplined as I.  

I would accept being OCD (jg) or just ocd.
