firstly because this blog is a place to rant
and secondly, because i no one would care if i told them how these little things irritate me

forgive me if im too overcritical of preachers.... its just me i think

1) I have a thing against preachers quoting einstein... actually i have something against most people quoting einstein....

they think they lend credibility to what they say just because the mention the name of one of the greatest minds....

einstein was not a christian, and while he had jewish heritage, i doubt he was observing....
while he was not an atheist either, unless preachers intend for me to embrace my theistic sprinkled with agnosticism leanings

hai

i just feel strongly that normal people should try to refrain from making such quotations which make them seem, ironically in this case, retarded...

2) ur little experiment with the benjamin franklin quotation while interesting for playing on academic stereotypes, failed in other ways

the whole point of that refrain to me seemed to be more about the importance of care, especially the care for the details and the intangibles....

it seemed to me more like a reminder to brush my teeth and tie my shoelaces than a useful note to be mindful of sin....
