I have a problem with the idea of “salvation,” the need of an “army” for that purpose, & the refering of anyone as “prophet.”

Funny, your username & words are really at odds with each other...

I’ve never claimed to be a “liberal” ... ‘cause, you know, as George Carlin said, “I do this real moron thing, and it’s called thinking. And apparently I’m not a very good American because I like to form my own opinions.”

They (still) do it ‘round here...

All that & those F&@%^* bell ringers in the store vestibules !

Probably not, as those politicians believe that The People are completely on their side, or should be, or will be eventually (once they’ve no choice), and will only ever use those guns against the evil liberals.

Because if a local church, the help would (ideally) stay local & the extent of that church’s influence over much would be rather limited. But a (inter?)national Church’s influence (note the diff between the “c” & “C”) has much more potential to be far more damaging to those who don’t happen to fit in with their…

Perhaps, but past evils are still evils... & given their christy nature, I don’t believe that those evils exist only in the past.

If it were only them going to suffer, I would agree... but we are also getting what they deserve.. so there’s that.

To call the Salvation Army a “decent charity” is a misuse of both the words decent and charity.

He is amazingly stupid... The absolute bestest at being stupid.

BUT WHAT ABOUT THE SOLSTICE ??

Or if you can manage a decent southern drawl... “Oh, bless your little heart.”

Didn’t you see the story here... you shouldn’t (always) look for the sliver lining?

You forgot the reach-around... not even getting a bad one from this situation...

Not just jezebel, et al sites: from an email chain I wrote more than a year ago to friends:

Visited Hell, Michigan once & in their Christmas Store/Ice Cream Shop (really) they had their tree hanging upside down from the ceiling...

But w eBay, you have to consider what others would really be willing to pay & how much you’d receive after eBay & PayPal take their cut to determine if it would really, really be worth your time (sorting, taking pics, writing the listing, & mailing) to make it worth the bother (hint: rarely).

Also, use 2, yes TWO, nails/screws/hooks to hang stuff on & then you won’t have to be constantly (or even occasionally) straightening your frames....

& yet it is still better than all the other alternatives...
