Yeah so, it's hot... and so I've been thinking of hell a little more than normal.
I saw these two Mormon guys walking down the street in Poway yesterday, wearing the full garb, and I thought... "Better get used to the heat". So here I am making jokes about a real persons eternity... The thing is, didn't really feel bad for them at the time.
Here I am, Tim the Christian, making thoughtless comments about 'Mormon Joe'.
I don't like that I didn't really care about those two guys. It actually really bothers me
right now. But at the time all I could think about was getting out of my crappy, burning hot, 94' camry and getting some food in my belly.
It just shows how my personal comfort is connected with my willingness to have compassion for others.
I wish that wasn't the case...

one word- crack
ok, now i feel bad that I made a joking comment out of a serious post.. that was a great post and convicting too.. Gives me a lot to evaluate within myself
if you are going to make fun of Hemet, at least spell it correctly - jerk. but I agree that the rest of the post is probably something that is thought by more people than will truly admit it - myself included.
