Awesome topic at Mom's funeral. Is that your tradition? When exactly do you bring it up to Dad?

We sit Shiva for a day, or three. No funeral homes. No coffin. No oppressive flowers. We tell stories. We laugh. We cry. We share love, good food, and music.

With enough notice we have a party with the soon to be deceased.

I don't believe that it's possible to reject Jesus IF we truly have His Spirit in our heart. That's just my opinion however- only God truly knows a mans heart.

allah does not exist. He's a figment of muslims imaginations used by satan to do evil. If you look at Islam, you'll see that satan has been quite successful in this endeavor.

What? No fights? In my family it's not a proper send-off unless someone gets in a fight. No fight means you were cheap with the booze at the wake and everyone will talk about you from that point until you die. When they will say things like, "That Eli. He was so close with his money. He could be a real putz. Rest his soul. Is there any more potato salad? "

Sorry you are offended, but I can speak just like you can on here. God is not interested in being PC or our feeling good- he's interested in our relationship with Him thru Christ.

What does Christmas and Easter have to do with Jesus, Muslims and Christians celebrate Babylonian feasts and I don't think they go to hell for doing so, but somebody who practices pagan feasts originating in Babylon about a Babylonian Messiah don't have much room to talk about somebody else. You look at other supposed lost religions and here you are a apart of a pagan religion looking down on a Muslim who has the same Holy days in common with you.

My kingdom for a rep or ten, Dew.

When my mother was dying, we called all of our family and friends. They all came for her good-by party. The kids decorated the place.

We drank, and ate, and the house was full of stories, screaming laughter, and tears.

"Why a party?"

"Mom. You wouldn't want to miss a good family fight now would ya?"


She had a great time. We did not fight, but we did not behave either. She was a character, and a very funny woman. She died in our home. Decades later, we still share her stories. They were legend.
