"Helping the world - then telling people about it"

This is for encouragement, ideas, and support for people going through a faith transition no matter where you hope to end up. This is also the place to laugh, cry, and love together.

Any other Better Off Ted fans out there? This Veridian Dynamics commercial really rang a bell:

Love that show! Cancelled way too early. You are right though. That commercial does strike a chord.

It's a perfect fit!

I loved that show, too. Such good satire.

I became more aware of the issues and war in Syria that is going on now, through a college course that I just finished. You only need to google war images in Aleppo to get the picture that people there are enduring hell right now.

I was talking to my wife about it and all she could talk about what how the church is helping them.

That's fine, and I really don't care where the help is coming from, they need help from anywhere they can get it. It's just laughable that they brag about it saying "look at the awesome stuff we do" oh and look at this sweet mall we just built.

I love that Hagoth. I took a FB break to get away from annoying Mormons a bit after the anti-gay, anti-Jesus policy came out, but I'm still on Instagram. And the "light the world" crap is really annoying me. I may post this.
