Oh duh....I've just been informed that Jesus uses a Mac since Bill Gates is the Antichrist.
Dang-what was I thinking? :P

I'm in a Bible study with mostly fundamentalist conservatives. It's supposed to be non denominational, but they still tend to go off track at times. (I won't really go into the specifics right now, suffice it to say that it's very frustrating for me most of the time!)

Anyway, one of the things they tend to rant about is reading horoscopes. Yes, it clearly states in the Bible that you're not supposed to practice witchcraft, sorcery, divination, occult, etc. But who among us has not read a horoscope as a joke? It very clearly states in the paper that it is for entertainment purposes only. However, there are several people I've come across over the years that caution against even reading them as a joke as it's the "first step on the road to devil worship." Granted, I can see the point if someone reads them, believes them, lives his/her life by them, because they obviously have nothing else to "guide" them. But I always chuckle when I hear of someone who takes this all seriously.

Feng Shui was also mentioned as something that real Christians should avoid-actually anything Eastern or Mystical-because it's not the true way to salvation. (I'm not sure how they justify certain religions that believe in the "mystical," but that's not the point.)

There are Christians who believe that Yoga is evil because it isn't just exercise, but it's "brainwashing." There is actually a yoga like program that uses the same moves as Yoga but you say Scripture and prayers while you're doing the exercises.

Thanks to Terro for these links. I'd like to know if Jesus uses a PC or a Mac. :P
