I love this mode, in between passive and active. I remember coming into
a room, and seeing my daughters pointing to the smashed fragments of
some precious object on the floor.

They pointed at it, and said:

"It broke."

Weekly Reader comes through again!

You should run for president.


You make an assertion that I don't know **** per the Christian/Jewish
connect. So I respond in sum; then (as is your standard whine when bested,
beaten and dunked), you bleat out some puppy drivel. Be a man, for Christ
sake. You used to argue with some flair, some bounce; Now you argue like a
tired geek in a second rate carnival.

And for this I came back from Italy?

Messieurs
Luther, Tillich and Barth etc , down to our times, . . . its not

much of a
stretch to think of Christians as "Jesus Jews."

President? Hell, he just rewrote the New Testament in 200 words or less.

He
ought to run for God!

--riverman
(or possibly for King James)


Listen, you want to see a rewrite? . . . get yourself a copy of The
Jefferson Bible. Thomas Jefferson, tired of all the horse****
interpretations and additions to the Bible, reduced it to "an octavo of 46
pages" (132, 3x5, big print pages) by excluding all but "the very words of
Jesus." Unlike most of today's snakehandlers, Jefferson could read Greek,
Latin, and French (I don't know that he could read Aramaic) and he later
made a version of his bible that had extracts in parallel columns in 4
languages.

When I think of Jefferson, Franklin, Washington, Sam Adams etc, it makes me
almost crack up when these right wing jackals make claims about the
religious beliefs of the founders of this country. The jackals are like
those kids back in school who never did the reading; So when they were
called on they tried to fake it, and the more snickering they got, the more
passionate became their bull****. The "religion" of our founding
revolutionaries bears only the slightest similarity to the crude nonsense
of today's "Christian Coalition" jackals.

Well, maybe, but I don't think that even if Karl Rove and James Carville

teamed
up to pimp it and McCain and Clinton endorsed it that'd there'd be any way

the
Snedeker/Farrakhan ticket would play in Peoria...

Again, maybe, but with rw telling God what to do, I don't think ol' Sgt.

Mitty
would go for it...

Anyhow, both were decent answers gentlemen, but mine's better:

Imperial Wizard.


You probably know this but maybe not: The KKK generally isn't operating in
the Blue States so many Roffians may miss your point. You're welcome.
