3. Good Old Days
I am old enough to remember when religion was a private matter between you and your god, whoever that might be. It was not a matter to be discussed in public, let alone on the airwaves or in the legislature. We didn't start this fire.

20. I never saw the link between Falwell and the Squealers!
But, it's so plain, how could I have missed it?

Satan and his Demons!

BTW, I'm a Browns fan, and we've been tortured in hell for a long time by those demons.:hurts:

27. Do you know how Jesus defined the Church?
A Churh is not a building, but defined as a group of people gathered together to worship. Spending once a week in a building singing Hymns off Key and drinking the holy wine is not my idea of faith. I would rather think it's what I do in society for others and to make this world a better place - to live in a way that is similiar to Jesus (ok, I'm sure Jesus wasn't a big tequila drinker but he did turn water into wine).

I would rather spend my Church united with others who, like myself, want to reach out and make this world a better place and reach out to those who need a helping hand.

When I do go to Church I attend Quaker Meetings, I prefer the unstructured service where there is no preacher telling us what to do but people interacting with each other. It's a unique experience
