I'm a frequent (not every-day) coffee drinker and an absolute tea junkie (since I was a wee child, thank you). Really think I've ODed on caffeine from both beverages all these years. A fellow worker from a similar tea-drinking culture perhaps said it best when I suggested coffee in response to his complaint of needing energy this morning:<br /><br />"Coffee!?

Of course we don't know from the story just how much the people gave already. But we do know from a general trend in laity giving(or not-giving) that they(we) can be stingy.<br /><br />OTOH: It's uncooth and inappropriate for the pastor to demand that people give out of their tax refund. It's downright <b>magisterial</b> to deny communion to the people for not schilling out from their hard earned refunds. <br /><br />I hope their congregation resolves this problem by giving cheerfully and the pastor stops lording it over,and their parking lot gets built "in the black".Pierre Saikaleyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09409964448078910855noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9313009.post-38866135875732641532011-03-18T07:21:18.791-05:002011-03-18T07:21:18.791-05:00Now, I've heard of "The best thing since ...Now, I've heard of "The best thing since peanut butter" and "the best thing since sliced bread". <br /><br />Now we have sliced peanut butter.
