August 13--Still Learning After All These Years

It is a test of a good religion whether you can make a joke about it. 
--G. K. Chesterton

    Having cruised, stumbled, and plodded through several religions, and having worked at a church for six years, I can tell you that there is a very wide range of ability and willingness to laugh about religion. Isn't that why family gatherings are discouraged from discussing religion or politics!?! 

    I was out with a group of friends on Monday night. With about a dozen of us chattering away, a woman came over to our table, suspecting that we are a fun-loving, active bunch, and told us of the Granny Basketball League, Inc. Her team is the "Wichita Sugar & Spice." Who knew!!?!?! The website's tagline is "A Gentle Game for Women of a Certain Age." While I love watching basketball, I have no desire to play it, but I say, "YOU GO, GIRLFRIENDS!!" Kudos for staying active even at a "certain age"!!
