I suppose if I knew a fellow Christian (with good ethics) I would utilize their services over someone else. I actually think that, if Danny Gokey is a Christian, voting for him is doing him a disservice. Seems like anyone who is in the entertainment world and claims to be a Christian does a pretty poor job of it. Not that the rest of us do a great job, but at least our failures aren't broadcast on the news every night!Tonyahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00999639129238614882noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2736912982726404421.post-37244977314826886062009-05-12T18:10:00.000-04:002009-05-12T18:10:00.000-04:00It seems to me that if you can have non-chritian f...It seems to me that if you can have non-chritian friends (whom I suspect you actually like, trust, and maybe even admire), you can certainly hire a non-christian to unplug your drain.<br /><br />I suspect that there are millions (billions) of people on this earth who are smart, honest and moral, who happen to not be christianAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2736912982726404421.post-10797234114835669432009-05-12T10:19:00.000-04:002009-05-12T10:19:00.000-04:00Krazy Girl, I'm with FrenchChick - move. actaully ...Krazy Girl, I'm with FrenchChick - move. actaully move to my town. 4 large catholic church's and dozens of protestant churches and i'm the only one that doesn't like anyone - we are just one big happy family here.<br /><br />Jo - Most assuredly being a failed Christian shouldn’t disqualify someone.

They try so hard and the Catholics slap them in the face at every opportunity. Its so bad that I almost didn't convert. I was planning to go back to the Methodist church. My dh won't go to the church b/c they hate us.
