  I saw Hellboy today with my dad. It was actually pretty good. It had a religous side to it that got me thinking... do Christians have pilgrimages?
Either way I'm going on one of my own. I'm trying to decide where to go... so far I want to see Augsburg, The Vatican, Westminster Abbey, Jerusalem, The Dead Sea, Nazareth, somewhere in Spain and Constantinople. That way I get an overall dose of every part of Christanity, not just the Lutheran part. I also decided I need to find a good Rosary that I may or may not wear around my wrist. Holy crap, I'm turning Catholic. Really, I'm just looking for places to pray. I really like praying.
There's something about it that makes you feel so close to God, it's a great form of meditation. The only problem is, I don't have any places that I really like to pray at. The Seminary is pretty good, so is Redeemer. Problem is, I can't always go there. I need to make somehwere at my mom's that I can go. All I need is a big cross, some holy water quiet.
Crap, two of those are hard to come by. I can get a cross anywehere but peace and quiet? Not in my house. I duno, I think I just want to go visit a bunch of sacred places and feel more religious or close to God or something. You know what's wierd? I swear when I find a good cross or something religous I can almost feel something like power coming from it. Sounds stupid, I know, but I swear I can. Oh well. <>
