....now Toggle!

.....you are such a wise man to be so young. On my computer, you're allowed to write God's name. If you're going to talk about Him, please say his name! Now Toggle, this next comment does not apply to you, so don't go gettin your panties in a twist.... but I'm always a little sceptical of people that spout Biblical verse and are SO Jewish or SO Christian but are afraid to speak His name or even write it! When you meet your God face to face, are you going to be afraid to call His Holy name? (I could myself spout verse here, but I won't) Hopefully all of us Jews and Christians are studying the Holy word, and are not going to wait until the last minute to study for our finals. Now, you all can be mad at me for saying this, but ask me if I care! Mark
 
.....and now to lighten things up a little!

Four Catholic Ladies having coffee...

Four prim and proper Catholic Ladies are having coffee together.

The first one tells her friends:
"My son is a Priest.
When he walks into a room, everyone says 'Father'."

The second one chirps:
"My son is a Bishop.
Whenever he walks into a room, everyone says 'Your Grace'."

The third Catholic lady says smugly,
"My son is a Cardinal.
When he walks into a room, everyone says 'Your Eminence'."

The fourth Catholic lady sips her coffee in silence.
The first three ladies all ask, "Well...?"

She replies, "My son is a male stripper.
He's 6' 2", hard-bodied, and hung like you wouldn't believe.
When he walks into a room, everyone says,
"Oh, my God...!"

Happy Holidays...
 
To continue in a lighter vein.................

Venus,

Pardon my political incorrectness but here goes:

How do you turn a fruit into a vegetable?

Get an act in Las Vegas with two white tigers.

(No hate hate mail please. No tar and feathering please. No statements about my insensitivity please. Blah, blah, blah.)
 
Retromom, others

The biblical quote "let he who is without sin cast the first stone" illustrates that, despite what modern so called Christian churches claim, Jesus was against the death penalty.

The reason I mentioned the quote is that it comes from when Jesus discovered a stoning in progress - someone had been sentenced to death by stoning by the legal system of the time. Jesus taught that no person there present had the right to put another person to death, even as a punishment. They may have felt that the guilty person deserved to die, but Jesus taught that they were incorrect in that belief.

The death penalty is anathema to true Christian values.

(there ya go Toggle, a Greek word...)

Of course as I am now a lukewarm atheist I should no longer claim a religious justification for my arguments, but I get cranky when people who use words from the bible to denigrate gays and other people they don't approve of, but choose to ignore the words of their Lord when those words don't coincide with their own opinions and prejudices.

Chris.
 
did you personally here him say that?

Kimono comes from XEIMONA....therefore..

Said: Jesus was against the death penalty.

Better: Therefore it can be said that JC my have believed BLA BLAH BLA based on the reported statement of BLAH BLAH BLAH.

I PERSONALLY CRINGE WHEN I HEAR.,,,,,,,,

IMHO (and I am NOT offended)statements such as above are difficult for me to digest.

Just my opinion. I may believe you 100%, But I personally would never say that that way.

A girl's best friends are her legs. Between her friends

So since we are baring it all (EEEEEEEKKKKK!!)

JC was pissed off that a hooker was about to be stoned to death for being sexual. And we can perhaps add~~ when others themselves are sexual but not as obviously so. HYPOCRITES!

So the next time you hear "GOOD" Christians are/ should be against sexuality, have a chuckle and think of Toggle.
"GOOD" Christians,it can be said, are againt GOSSIP, EGO AND JUDGING.

ALL kidding aside it is said that JC married Mary Magdaline (la puta soucia). HEY don't lash out at me-- I don't (have the intelligence to) write the news, I just convey it.

Then again twelve/thirteen men left their farms, businesses, wives and families to follow a man around. We could probably add a coment there. But we won't, will me.

YOU CAN SEE ANTYTHING YOU WANT TO SEE in any "HOLY" writing.
 
Amen Toggle!

Man's interpretation of many things (the Constitution, the Bible, and the Koran come to mind) are subjective and are going to hurt us in the long run.
 
I certainly didn't mean to create such a monster here. To all of you have replied, I must say that I can understand both sides of this argument. On the one hand, as I mentioned earlier, I believe this world is better off without murderers. I also can see that we must make damn good and sure that the one we are putting to death is guilty before we do the deed. We are all probably sure that Timothy McVeigh did his deed that got him the needle on 06/11/2001, there's just not much room for doubt. Ted Bundy is another shining example, He even admitted to killing more just before his 01/24/1989 execution. But I guess on some we must wonder. As for me, I sometimes wonder about Scott Peterson. I certainly didn't mean to offend anyone though.
PS: Toggleswitch, My leg thread was posted October 7 and is now resting peacefully in the archives. It's all over now.
