Catdog

Confession: I like the cartoon "Catdog". It's about an animal that is half cat and half dog. They are joined at the end and thus, both have a head. It's one of the greatest evidences in America that "anything goes"! It's ridiculous and that's why I like it. It's like "Sponge Bob"..seems totally moronic but it actually represents real life. We all act a certain way and don't even know that what were are doing is not really what we think. Well, we now have a cat and a dog at our house...So I guess we really are true American's now...Or stupid. The cat was here first and is freaked out by our new puppy. Our cat "Boomer" hisses and runs from this psycho-hyper 10 week old Golden Retriever "Solomon". They don't get a long and the cat does not want to. Tell me how much this relates to the relationships in the church today? They sound too familiar. I think these cartoon writers go to church somewhere in the "Bible Belt"! We have one group saying and doing one thing and someone else doing another...lot's of hissing, running, and not getting along. And, we have the "Sponge Bobbers" coming in an letting us know that they have something innovative to do like going fishing for jellyfish. Or they take a balloon on national free balloon day and then feel guilty that they took it! May we pray church not be so "cartoon" anymore....
