Catholic church issues prayer for faithful to say before sex

Roman Catholic couples are being encouraged to pray together before they have sex.

A book published by a prominent Church group invites those setting out on married life to recite the specially-composed Prayer Before Making Love.

It is aimed at ‘purifying their intentions’ so that the act is not about selfishness or hedonism.

All of this awesomeness is done by an artist with two first names, Bill Dan.

He writes a little bit about the first picture here.

The Telegraph has more of his pictures here, some of them includes birds on the rocks.

And he has a video of birds landing on those balanced rocks here.

Stuff Christian Culture Likes

Last year I made a post about another blog called Stuff Christians Like.  That site has become so popular that a book is about to come out.

But today I found a very similar blog called Stuff Christian Culture Likes.  Yes, it’s a very similar blog, but the author doesn’t avoid the comparison and even addresses the like blog  issue.  All in all, I think I prefer the Stuff Christian Culture Likes blog better, her perception and humor is a little more towards me liking.

It’s no secret that as I look back at my past, one thing that really bothered me was how people in the church tried to live up to a perception instead of being really sincere of who they are.  I was one of them.  So as I check out this blog, I’m able to laugh at who I was, and who I am, and feel a bit more grounded.  I hope no one is taking this as an attack on Christians or Christian culture, that’s not my intent, and I don’t think it’s the intent of the authors of these two blogs; but rather look at it as an opportunity for how Christians are viewed by many people outside (and even inside) the church.

Here are a handful of posts that got my attention:
