Monday I
From Curious as a Cat:
What spiritual concept, from any religion, is the hardest fo you to understand? Is it something you have studied, or something you have only observed from the 'outside'? I'm a Christian, and have grown up well inside the Christian subculture. I've learned this stuff since I was a tot, and have a memory for things I've read in doctrine textbooks. Hence the difficulty in answering this question. HOWever, I still don't get suffering, especially in relation to God's sovereignty. That's a question a lot of new Christians and non-Christians ask, and I wish there were better answers than just "that's a matter of faith." It seems to me that we all need to keep asking, both of each other and of God, and see how he will answer. Because I do know there is an answer!
What kind of doctor would you want to be? Not a proctologist, urologist, or gynecologist. (I'd love to ask a proctologist how he or she decided to go into the pooper for their specialty!) I would like to be a family practicioner, I think. (I never really wanted to be a doctor. I wanted to be a nurse when ER came out, so I candy-striped for a semester. Candy-striping cured me of wanting to be a nurse!)
If you could run any existing charity, which one would you pick? Why? How would you change it, or would you keep it just as it is? I'd run a crisis pregnancy clinic. I think Roe v. Wade is horrible and has caused so much suffering in our nation, and I'd like to take positive steps to undermine the quick-fix-abortion mentality in America. I'd take the crisis pregnancy clinic also in the direction of Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder for post-abortive women and men, to help them work through the consequences of the sin they committed against themselves and against their aborted babies. That's suffering, and I want to help relieve it.
