Truly I tell you, just as you did it to one of the least of these who are members of my family, you did it to me.

Matthew 25:40

To put it simply: I'm creating this blog to ponder. To vent frustrations, to celebrate joys. To inquire of your minds your thoughts on issues that frankly, blow me away. Often I'm so taken aback by something, or impassioned, or... wondering how something can be. And I'd like to hear whether I'm alone.

I thought it best to start with a bible quote I came across today, which you see above. So many that call themselves Christian in modern society (or even societies past) are so far from Christ-like. That is what the word Christian means, isn't it? One like Christ? How is it that so many are so quick to cling to all the misinterpretations in the modern translation of the bible, but forget the simple things Jesus actually said? To love one another, treat each other with kindness, treat all children of God as you would treat him?

Are there any real Christians left in the world?
