Pastors or "Pastors"

This month has been the worst for me. I mean in terms of blogging.

I thought I would write about several issues that concern my fellow Ugandans' well being and events that have happened but in vain.

I thought of writing about this priest with an electrocuting gadget with the possible hope of trying to lure more and more followers to his congregation but thought twice about it. There was so much going on that I didn't have the time to write. However, one question keeps nugging me is did he really think he could get away with electrocuting people? How stupid can he get surely?

I even tried to write something short about the newly acquired Hammer by "Pastor" Muwanguzi. That also didn't find its way on my blog. I personally believe that these so called pastors have one aim only - to milk any remaining monies/ resources/property from poor and gullible Ugandans. The print media even did a feature on Pastor Muwanguzi, splashed copies of himself and his believers. I thought whoa! Must be quite a sensation. Though I stay along Entebbe road, I have not been able to find my way to his church. Being a staunch Catholic I prefer to remain in the Catholic Church.

I still believe that these 'pastors' are using the church as money making institutions. Look at the amounts of money people place in the baskets during Pastor Namutebi's sermons. I don't see anyone place coins, are there any rules to offertory giving?

I begin to think, maybe I should also start a church. By the end of the year I may drive around Kampala in a Hammer with the following number plates 'TOUCHED"

One Google wonder!

Have you tried searching for someone on Google?

Well, a colleague told us that it was possible and I thought he was bluffing. I gave it a try and started searching for myself. Yap there indeed spooled at least 99 options with either or both my names. You don't believe me, but try it out. The information that came out.. I was amazed at not only Google, but at what the net in general has really done.

It has actually put this wide world into one box, where we can all interconnect and share information, news and exchange ideas without leaving the comfort of our desks. Find yourself and friends on the net. Boring, you will say, because you have already been there. I am not talking about Hi5 on yahoo, but Google. Type in your name and click on search, it will spool options where your name appears, even on your fellow blog mates' blogs. Old friends and schoolmates or even dorm mates can be searched on Google....you will understand what am talking about.

Try search for that old schoolmate who went abroad and never came back. You will find them. It's a small world!

Today's Motto for Success

Whatever you sow in the way of kindness and joy,

you'll regain many times over.

To give is to gain.



Question for my dear bloggers: How many of us GIVE genuinely.
