If you claim religious belief in this country then you can get away with pretty much anything. It's sad but true.
 
I turned into such a nerd/fangirl today.

One of the theaters by where I live had a special event thing. 4 actors from Jesus Christ Superstar would be there for autographs/pictures and a Q & A before the movie, and then they'd show the fully remastered Jesus Christ Superstar on the big screen.

Now, I grew up watching JCS on Easter. I love love love it. I'd never seen it on the big screen though.

So, my little one and I went and I got autographs from all 4 actors and I got to have conversations with them and I even got a chance to hug Ted Neeley (Jesus).

I am still over the moon. The actors are super old now, but they were so awesome and friendly and fun to talk to.

The details you miss when you watch movies only on the small screen can't be overstated.

What a treat today was...all around!

I completely agree with you...most times when asking for advice we want that person to tell us what we want to hear or sugarcoat the reality...when we already know the answers...much time can be wasted trying to talk yourself into something that is just not there...

Its like people asking others to be truthful, then scolding them for telling you what you didn't want to hear

People, I swear

Crazy, isn't it? These one-off news hits and the subsequent pleas for help can earn someone more money in a month or two than some people make in a lifetime.

Or someone can help offer some clarity. There's certain shit you won't see because you're too close to it

No one. My understanding was that it wasn't even a situation of gay people doing anything. It was a comment that was said about how they would serve gay people in the shop but if they were asked to cater a gay wedding they wouldn't do that because it would go against their religious beliefs about marriage.

To me it's even more amazing that they are getting all this money.

People are crazy.

I disagree. When I say to listen to yourself...I'm talking about your true self not the bs that runs through your head. That's why I said to still the mind and the answers are there. I could have just as easily said to still the mind and meditate/pray (whatever one happens to do) and the answer will become clear.

If you talk to most people who are nearing death and ask them if they have any regrets in life - the regrets are typically times when they did not trust themselves and listened to what someone else told them to do in life.

People usually get themselves in shitty positions because they live their lives doing what they have been told to do, what outsiders think, society says, etc. Because they are following someone or something rather than tuning into themselves.

But if you really feel the need to get advice from another person, then it's best to get it from someone who you feel is truly successful in whatever it is you are trying to succeed in.

Yep, and it irks the hell out of me when people do that crap. If you don't want the truth, then don't ask for it. If you're looking for someone to blow smoke up your ass, I'm not the one.

That's one of those films I've always wanted to see but never have.
