FINDING RELIGION AT 7TH AND MONTANA ...!

                             

Sunday School was in session at 7th and Montana this morning as a Devout Disciple provided some serious religious guidance to a Quiet Young Lady who listened intently but said not a word.  "Jesus wants you to do this," said the Disciple, "Jesus wants you to do that ...!"  I'm not a religious person -- to each their own, I always say -- but I couldn't help wondering whether the choice of venue, the counter at Our Favorite Starbucks, was well-suited for such a Spiritual Discussion.  As I was leaving, it sounded as if the Disciple was telling the Young Lady that Jesus wants her to join a nunnery.  Next thing you know, they'll be sipping "Tall, Skinny Cinnamon Dolce Lattes" out of a Holy Grail ...!

I'm not interested in organised religon period....Don't get me wrong, I worship in my own ways, but brow-beating some-one like your guy there is ill-mannored-Rude and un-welcomed! So many awful things have been done by man in the name of God...it's a shame......Kit

I've heard some really strange conversations while sipping on a coffee at Starbucks...not that I'm listening, but its not like its a private conversation!  Hmmm, perhaps others around me have listened to my musings too!
