Uh-oh! We have guests!

The funniest thing about folks where I go to church is they can be the rudest, most inconsiderate bunch of assholes sometimes, but when we "have company" they are so attentive and nice.  It really gets under my skin because this is exactly the two faced hypocrisy non-church-goers talk about.  Last Sunday evening we had a guest speaker and it was a perfect example of this.  Everyone sat attentively and quietly, letting him go over and no one left early.  Had our usual minister been speaking people would sigh, fidget, and walk out.  It's frustrating to me because people are so disingenuous. If you're a freaking prick be one, don't act like you're not just because someone new is around.  If it embarrasses you to be a freaking prick, just stop it. God knows who you are inside and he's the only one we have to impress.  If people in our lives don't like us for who they are then they aren't meant to be our friends.  If we are assholes and realize it, but don't change it, it's our own fault that no one likes us.  Be real, be who you are.
