Gud reminds me of the best bumper sticker evah:
Jesus saves. All others take double damage.
This is a time of celebration, so sit still and be quiet.

Spike's Bitches 28: For the Safety of Puppies...and Christmas!
[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risque (and frisque), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

Wow. Amych, that came REALLY close to being Literal Coffee On My Monitor, as I read it just as I took a sip.
PS to Cindy, re: screened LJ pollish thing from weeks ago. I keep meaning to copy your response to my response to email and continue the conversation. I keep remembering this when I have no access to either, or lack time.
So, you know, if you get a random email from me months from now? I honestly meant to send it same-day.

I still like "Jesus Saves - Kobe Gets the Rebound and Scores!"
But along the lines of amych's, someone in my house has this shirt: [link]
I think Gud's card game might be something like Illuminati.

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.
I'm still trying to work out what would happen if you countered your opponent's praying Calvin with pissing Calvin, but I'm too undercaffeinated to make it sing.

In re faith, the rector of my church once said "first we leap, then we fly, and then we grow wings".

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
Which is most powerful? Praying Calvin, Pissing Calvin, or Zombie Calvin?
(If there's not a Zombie Calvin, there should be. Or mabye a Zombie Calvin about to eat the brains of Praying Calvin. OTOH, you don't want your bumber sticker to get you beaten up....)

waaaay back in the '60s a local church was trying to close down a store because it had a t-shirt saying "Jesus saves, Moses invests". I think it was partly because it was right across the street from the parochial school.

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.
Skippity skiping like a mad thing.
Yay for matt's mom, double yay for Olivia Rose.
JJust woke up from an interesting dream: ita and Patrick Stewart were fighting. In the middle of the fight, ita had some back trouble, so Patrick graciously performed a chiropractic adjustment on her, and they continued fighting.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

What a gentleman! Me, I dreamed of a new electric toothbrush. If I hadn't already been sleeping, the boredom factor would have knocked me out.

In re faith, the rector of my church once said "first we leap, then we fly, and then we grow wings".
That's lovely...and highlights one of my points about faith in the discussions I've been having. Namely, that first leap...does it come from an internally motivated resolve or does it come through the influence of intercession? I'm going with the former, but some Christian pals have said they feel that the impulse to learn that type of flight only comes when 'the way is shown.' (by another, obviously.)
I'm memfaulting on the exact line, but Ed Norton has a good one in "Keeping the Faith" (one of my favorite frothy movies) about the difference between faith and religion.
I guess I come smack-hard, down on the side of faith, not to the exclusion of religion, but as a more reliable and sustainable code for living.
