Total lack of discipline

Once again, I have let myself down. I have no excuse, except the usual ones: I am busy with saving the community (translate=committee meetings), housekeeping, reading good books, going
to doctors' appointments, business meetings (well, one actually), laundry...you see how feeble these are?

I have been wanting to write about an experience a week ago but not sure it was worthy of the time and effort. I received one of those mass mailings that listed all the reasons that explain the student shootings over the past few years starting out with the fact that we "kicked God out of the schools" and then ranted on about preventing school administers from "disciplining" students, letting girls get abortions without their parents knowing, allowing internet porn because we excused a President's immoral sexual behavior, etc, ad nausem.....you get the picture. Lots of sloppy thinking coorelating unrelated events and all coming back to not praying in public schools.

Normally I would just delete this crap, but it came from Dotty, who was passing it on to all the members of her book club(who later said she didn't read it first) and it came from one of those members. I am part of that group of single women who meet once a month and talk very little about the book; I am there more out of friendship to Dotty and I do like a few of the women in the group. However, I was so angry that someone I knew would send me something so offensive that I fired off a semi-devastating response tearing the piece's lack of logic apart bit by bit and requesting that I be taken off the mass mailing list of said friends. The originator of this right wing misguided rant responded questioning if I "believe". I am ignoring that response officially, but, for the record, no, I don't believe in a God who creates mass murderers becaus e we don't have our children praying to him in public school.

There. I feel much better. The next meeting of this group is at this woman's house....should be interesting for a change.
