Wednesday, June 28, 2006 Hrm...this entry will be a little bit volatile, because its gonna be about church.. :P Last sunday i went to a church sermon *finally*, after upteen invitations from jiarong. I decided to bring this up because i was talking to my friend (he's a christian) on monday afternoon about going to church. He hasn't been attending church sermon for....7 years now? Anyway, to the point, i find that session kinda queer. Maybe i've watch too much tv or maybe its because its a charismatic church but my impression of church sermons is nothing like what happened to exaggerate a bit, at least for the first hour or so. At the start, everyone is queueing outside a shutter waiting for it to open and once it does, most run inside trying to grab a seat. The first thing i was reminded of was when i was at the library during my jc times. Then, as people are running, the choir (or rock band with choir? :P) will be blasting some rocky kind of christian song. Then everyone are jumping at their seat as if they're in a concert, and most people will be singing along, except poor me who doesn't feel excited or so called 'high' at any of this, and thus i'm one of the only few sitting down when the rest of the hall is jumping/singing/standing-stoning. After that it becomes more alright..with the usual preachy stuff from the pastor, but the first part still feels wrong. Maybe thats why I'm never really keen on tagging along for church sermons. The preaching and that. I hope i'm not the only one who feels the same way, at least i know my other friend thinks that too! :D Volatile entry +++
