Eh being a Christian (woop woop Presbyts!) can be frustrating with all the fighting. As in politics, the noticed ones tend to be the loud angry ones driving other people off.
Say! look at you! You look just like me! We're very pretty.

[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

I'm only really familiar with Shakespeare's sonnets - and that language is a bit tough for him.

The status is NOT quo.
Check out Poetry 180. Lots of good, accessible poems there.

What is Pink?
~Christina Rossetti
What is pink? A rose is pink
By the fountain's brink.
What is red? A poppy's red
In its barley bed.
What is blue? The sky is blue
Where the clouds float through.
What is white? A swan is white
Sailing in the light.
What is yellow? Pears are yellow,
Rich and ripe and mellow.
What is green? The grass is green,
With small flowers between.
What is violet? Clouds are violet
In the summer twilight.
What is orange? Why, an orange,
Just an orange!

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart
I went to Southern Baptist Churches as a kid and at one point I was going there and to an Episcopal elementary school, that was interesting. I was taught that Catholics weren't true Christians (a couple of the churches had Chick Tracts out for the taking, if you want an idea of their theology).
That goes both ways in my experience. The Roman Catholic side of my family finally stopped acting like Protestant marriages, baptisms, and communion don't "count". Though some of them probably do still think it.

We're very stretchy. - Connie Neil
Some of my mom's relatives were a little taken aback when my cousin married a Jewish girl in a bi-religious ceremony (both rabbi and priest in attendance, and under a canopy).
