Sunday nights tend to be my night for surfing. In addition to going through my emails since Friday, I follow links that lead to links that lead to links. I sometimes wonder how I got from "A" to "M." Tonight I know. It's Liz' fault! She sent me a spam mail asking if I knew anything about a newsletter by "Dr. Thomas Hohstadt." This is the email she forwarded to me:

Dear friends,
The refusal of an empowered laity has proven the greatest failure of today’s church. The co-dependency of skeptical pastors—protecting their own financial interests—and lazy laity—protecting their own membership privileges—has become an insidious addiction. Because of this cozy collusion, the more fervent and faith-filled entrepreneurs are finding their way outside the church. Turn this problem into new hope for the church by clicking: http://www.futurechurch.net/
Blessings,
FutureChurch
P.S. Please share this link with those who care about the future of the church.

Well, I'm not sure if there is much more than self-promotion at the FutureChurch site, however, I did find an interesting link off it to "Virtual Church." There is going to be an event on Tuesday evening. I'm going to try to check it out. Will I see you there?
Apparently its a SecondLife location. See this article for more info.

I guess, Life church is like another TV broadcasting church. When I read "about life church.tv" on their web page, I found that they sound like very evangelical, almost sound like AG (Assembly of God)Church which is famous in Myanmar for stealing the sheep. I have never been a subscriber of any religion related tv channel, but, this time I am curious to find out what really Life church is. If I do this will be my very first experience in visual church.
I'm hoping that I can get my second life agent working before tomorrow night. Like Wai Moo, this will be a first for me too.

SecondLife lets you "create" your own avitar... in your own image or any other image you would like... you can add or subtract weight, change hair and eye color, choose clothes, etc so you look the way you want... interesting concept in that you can literally try on different looks, and personalities
