Theologi-cool.

Yeah, those of you who know me IRL might just laugh at that title, but for the rest of you... it's a long story.

Anyway, our youth group met at the town swimming pool/rec center thing tonight, and I was bored. Like, really bored. Sitting in the spa, just chilling because the only person there that I wanted to talk to really was talking to her boyfriend. (A nice guy, but I'm not sure that he really understands his title.) Anyway, I was sitting there watching everyone mucking around, and this guy comes up to me, one of the leaders. We'd chatted before, and he'd asked if I was a christian etc, you know, the usual youth group leader stuff... so this time he comes up and says:

"Oh, you have no-one to talk to? Let's talk about Jesus, I like Jesus." It's an odd way to start a conversation, but blunt, I appreciated that, but replied as I often do, with half-sarcasm.
"Yep, he's a pretty cool guy eh."

The conversation went easy from there. He quizzed me about what I knew about Jesus. (basically just stories, I'm a Sunday school teacher, not a theologian) And corrected me when I proved my ignorance. And anyway, we started talking about Eden, and the trees. He was saying that there were two trees in the garden of Eden, The tree of Life, and the Tree of the Knowledge of Good and Evil. Anyway, we were talking for a good half hour, which was pretty awesome. But then we parted, because sitting in a spa for too long just drives you crazy with the heat.

Probably the only enjoyable part of my night was listening to what he had to say and learning it. The other hour and a half... fairly uninteresting.

That is all.
