The '60s must have been a great time for guys: legs, legs everywhere and sometimes a glimpse of something more! Star, maybe Tom is one of the faithful who don't believe in the Trinity - but surely he believes the god of the nt is the same god as the one in the ot - which means the same god who committed the bear atrocity still also sent jesus - ah, fork it...

[resists drooling at the thought! Yeah, I know...Bad (addicted, dirty old man) ChuckA?] Waaay OT, of course... That does remind me of the late 1960s, when I was marginally considering being a high school classroom teacher...or more accurately, and likely...band director. Just the thought of looking at a class filled with all those teenage, mini skirted girls...contemplating higher grades, no doubt(?)...contributed to enough embarrassing (red faced) fear (and resultant guilt?) to change my mind about school teaching. I seem to remember joking with some of my male teacher and band director friends about the whole contemporaneous, intriguing scenario. I'm sure you can imagine the comments! Yes indeed, Eve..."good times, good times..."! Or, perhaps, more appropriate to a horny, 'hetero', male... "I can dream, can't I?" :shock: What!...Overwhelming nostalgia...and (longtime, completely unresisted) sexual addiction dictates?... http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Miniskirt Eve: Erm…RE your…

Let's say you're the most moral creature in the known and unknown universe, and two kids are burning some incense. What would you do? If you're Yahweh, you shoot massive flames that devour the kids and you forbid their father and surviving brothers to grieve, or even to leave the tabernacle. It's the right thing to do!

God makes the Pharaoh forbid the Jews from leaving so that God can punish the pharaoh by torturing the Egyptians. Every time he does it, the Pharaoh is persuaded, but God makes him change his mind so that God will be able to torture the Egyptians again. Why all this? Because God is a narcistic jerk that wants all the people on Earth to know of his powers and talk about the wonders he does. My favourite horror story is a classic: the plagues of Egypt.

And women. And men. And even little kids--well. Certainly a concept not worth believing in. I was lucky enough that a persistent feminist streak ran through my family on both sides, despite religion. My parents taught me that I was fully equal to any male and entitled to try anything I wanted to do. Your wife's story is funny to me for different reasons: my mom was far more stylish, fashionable, and sociable than I was, and was constantly trying to get me to dress more attractively and go to more parties. She always told me to stand up straight, too - but never told me to stop sticking myself out. I have excellent posture and a great walk as a result! I still remember her getting angry at me because miniskirts were back in style and I hadn't put my hems <i>up</i> - *sighs nostalgically* - good times, good times... cry4, how much you want to bet she'd forgotten about that passage? In my experience anyway, very few catholics knew that much about the babble, let alone had read it... Sarge, god definitely hates teenage girls, too! And women. And men. And even little kids–well.
