Who are you looking at?

It's interesting the e-mails you get, isn't it?
My e-mail is usually chock full of spam (I've won the European lottery several times!), with a sprinkling of family news and Regional business.
While checking my home e-mail today I noticed a link to a blog called "Casey Women". I was of course curious, since my church is considered a Casey church, and I have many friends and some family that live in Casey.
Well I must say after reading the entries I was, I guess, educated to the fact that Casey is a rotten town that's run by a wild pack of women that feel they are better than everybody else.
Now I don't live in Casey, in fact I live in a smaller town really close to it. I feel like I must of been living in a vacuum these past 42 years and not noticed or heard about this before.
One entry really caught my eye. One gal (I guess it was a gal, the person didn't use their name, I can't imagine why) told of these high class women going to church, and then not speaking to them when they saw them in public. I think the point was that they lived a lie. They professed Christ, but wouldn't lower themselves to talk to the "lower class".
I always find comments like these interesting, and I'd like to throw my 2 cents in.
1. What has going to church have to do with anything? People go to church for a variety of reasons. Some feel like they "should" be there, as if it's a civic duty. Others were raised in church and feel like that's just what they do on Sunday morning. Going to church does not make you holy or perfect. In fact I hope people come to White Oak because they know something isn't right in their lives. The church is a building filled with imperfection. Sometimes we forget that.
The mature Christian knows that he or she needs to fellowship with other believers to help them with their Christian walk. Church attendance does not equal Christian behaviour, it never has and probably never will.
2. It also seems to me that we spend way to much time at looking at others. People will let you down. They will gossip, treat you badly, look down on you, and a whole list of other stuff. So my question is why do we let it bother us? It may lie in the fact that jealousy enters in. I'm guessing these problem gals have money or the right last name or both. Just looking at them makes us angry because they have and we don't. I think we need to focus on the only perfect being that ever walked this earth, and stop letting others affect us. When we lose our focus is when trouble begins for us. Have people looked down their nose at me? Sure they have, but here's the great thing, I don't care, I'm a child of the King.
3. Finally the city of Casey is struggling for the same reason thousands of other small towns are struggling. Jobs are leaving, so people are leaving. It's not that hard to understand. Good jobs are tough to find in small towns. Less tax income for towns and counties means less services and perks for citizens. Now if you can prove that some women, who think their better than everybody else, caused a massive job migration, then I'll listen.
Should people act this way? Of course not, but be careful not to try to remove the speck when you have a log in your eye.
I know many people who live in Casey. They are hard working and just like everybody else.
Their human.
