The Church Girl

Somebody please tell me what has happened to the good ‘ole church girl? Remember when it used to be the men who were heathens and the women were trying to convert us? Why is it that most women in today’s society are equally secular, promiscuous, and in need of rebirthing? I used to get excited when I would meet a woman who said they went to church. That is, until I'd find out that they curse like sailors, drink like fish and their sexual partner list is one short of a bakers dozen (this year!).
I'm not judging, just calling it like I've seen it.

They even have churches set up to make us feel this faux spiritual connection by attending a Sunday morning service just a few hours after the club is over. Its always been this way, but now its done with no shame. They used to walk in feeling like there were bells swinging between their legs signaling their sin :)

How can you have a church preaching a bible that they don't believe in? Why go to church at all?

Does anyone else notice that the line between the church and the world is nonexistent? Yes of course there have been times when it was very blurry, but now it doesn't exist at all. Everything in the club, is in the church.

What happened to the women that really had a relationship with God? I don't mean I bless my food, say my prayers kind of relationship…I mean that I want to live right and actually do what the Bible says kind of relationship. There was a time when if a woman said she was celibate it was for spiritual reasons. Now it only seems like a way to control men or take and not give. Where are those holy rollers in their late 20's mid 30's?

When I grew up there was always a few girls in church that you knew were putting out, but a lot of them were holding on, waiting for a good husband, and saving themselves. Is it our fault? The husbands never came and so the ideology changed? Too many single women with no one to come home to? Instead of waiting for the preacher, the deacon, the good church man, they settled for the thug, the "do right sometimes" man and the male whores?

Have we as men skipped over the women that were beautiful on the inside to settle for the polished brass that is empty and eroded beneath? Maybe it is our fault. Again, I'm not judging. To each his (or her) own. I just know quite a few good men looking for something more than the luke-warm church dwellers.

And what's up with these spiritualists? "I'm spiritual, but not religious". How does that work exactly? Are we making up our own religions now? Whatever fits our ideals is what it is? Where is the line? I used to think it meant that they just didn't like the traditionalism and fake aspects of church, but recently found out that this could mean they don't believe in God at all. Why go to a church whose sole doctrines are based on a book that you don't believe in?

Maybe you believe in some things and not others. How do you know which to choose? Could this be why the families are all but destroyed? Maybe this is why marriage is outdated or archaic. This society, our world, was built around the family structure. What will we do when it doesn't exist any more? Maybe that is why you rarely hear that someone is saving themselves for marriage?

I believe the church girl is the cornerstone, the necessary building block to rebuild families. Where y'all at? There are good men that need you!
