I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

Good thoughts for the discharge, msbelle.

I get to fast overnight so I can get every blood test in the world tomorrow morning. And after that I get to pick up my car from the garage in the afternoon (Lee, you will have to find another reason to laugh at me (not that that will be hard), I'm getting a whole new-to-me driver side door that opens from the inside! Possibly the same color as the rest of the car, we'll see). Big day!

That man was going to shank me. Over an omelette. Two eggs and a slice of government cheese. Is that what my life is worth?

Isn't the salient point, though, that they emphatically did not impose their religious beliefs on others through the law?

This. I think it's a stronger argument for modern Christians that the founding fathers were indeed Christian but didn't think they had the right to make that decision for others.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

Right? I'm always so confused by people who think they're making some right wing point with that.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Well, usually they go on to say how this is a Christian nation founded on biblical principles....

And that's just not factual. But, it's also not factual for the left wing to say that the founding fathers were not Christian. I guess that's what I was getting at from the beginning.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

Is “argument by bogus history” one of the logical fallacies? The Mormons are really good at that, and I think the other Christian denominations are picking up on it.

Back tattoos of the mother is that you are absolutely right - Ame

I thank you all for your sanity and rational discussions today. I'm afraid to talk to people outside my door.

CJ is off at an "ASL Social". He is supposed to go to one a semester and he always puts it off to the last minute. In an hour I pick him up and the three of us are going to see Wicked.

I'll try not to let it go to my head.

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."

While I sincerely doubt it would have any effect on your marriage, I can kind of see how Michelle Bachmann might consider the prospect of men being able to marry each other a threat to her own.

tee hee!
