the real difference

I was at church looking at Brother Cali's autographs from a Primus concert. He said that i was about 15 years behind on my music taste. and its completely true 100%. if i had been born like a long time ago like 30 years ago then i could have seen primus, Nirvana, and Soundgarden and whatever bands were together in the 90's. but if i would have been born 50 years ago i could have gone to Woodstock! how righteous would that be, like seriously?! Music today, (well most) doesnt have the same effect on people like it used to. Most the stuff today is popular for a month or two, but fades away into musical history. Bands like Led zeppelin, AC/DC, Def leppard, Nirvana, Primus, and people like Jimi Hendrix changed the musical world.

why?

in seminary we were talking about the ressurection, and being righteous and all that stuff, and one kid said, "well does that mean that other religions such as buddhists can't go to the celestial kingdom?" i thought that was a stupid question. first of all, buddhists are awesome. second of all, doesnt it say in one of your articles of faith to let men worship who, where and how they may (not exact words)? Also, if you want to go around preaching your religion, should you be ignorant of theirs? I dont think so. One more thing. one of the key principles in the church is to not gossip. but it seems like the one other primary thing the church centers around besides god is talking about others behind their backs. I'm not bashing on the church as a whole, i think its a great thing. but seriously, wheres the respect? Just something to think about and maybe change about yourself. I know i'm not perfect and have gossiped in the past. but i can still try my best to change.
