What gives

I noticed a lot of hue and cry about Deepika Padukone's vogue video. Being a believer one would I guess expect me to object to it as any reasonable person would do.I even saw a spoof saying 'It is my choice to have a beer belly.....'which i felt too lazy to open.I was all ready to condemn the video myself but when I actually saw the video I changed my mind.

We were going though the book of 1st Samuel,half way through I was away ,I misplaced the book so we started on Mark.I suddenly chanced upon the previous book the other day so we are back into Samuel and his paraphenalia. It is a struggle getting the young together.They are from different backgrounds'different spiritual levels,they invariably have...
