Okay, this seems a little strange even for me…

But, I suppose it had to happen sooner or later. Have you ever been hankering for a site that’s just filled with links to blogs that are all about God and Christianity? Well, now you can rest easy because there’s Blogs4God!
Now, I identify as a Christian, though I try to be inclusive of other’s religious beliefs as well. I certainly don’t think that my Jewish friends or the Dalai Lama are going to hell for not accepting Jesus as their Lord and Savior! But, the idea of a blog dedicated to nothing but religious material seems, well, “odd” somehow. Not sure why, but it just does. To me, at least. I guess it has something to do with my own less-than-personally-satisfying spirituality. Maybe, at some level, I’m even a little envious that someone could be so consumed by their belief. But, frankly, it’s never been that big a deal. At least, I don’t feel the need to try and convince everyone around me that what I believe is “right”. I don’t know, maybe my lack of missionary spirit makes me a lesser Christian, but prosthelytizing just makes my skin crawl.
Anyway, it is an interesting idea for a blog/aggregator. And, it sure suprised me how many God-related blogs there seem to be!
