Cisco, you're gonna burn in hell. We all know you're just choosing not to believe in a god so you can keep on sinning.

The word atheist has a ton of baggage for the average god believer. Their pastors tell them we are fools. They think we are satanic, immoral,
wretched beings, when in fact, we just don't believe in a god. We aren't turning our back on god. How can you turn your back on something you don't
believe exists?

I once asked dad what he thought of artificial insemination (he was in his 70's by then). His response was:

One day a zoo-keeper noticed that the orangutan was reading two books - the Bible and Darwin's Origin of Species.
Surprised, he asked the ape, "Why are you reading both those books?"
"Well," said the orangutan, "I just wanted to know if I was my brother's keeper or my keeper's brother."
I do what the voices in my tackle box tell me.

BUSTED!!!
So much going on and it's been soo long that my memory bank is overdrawn but isn't there some place in-between first?
Like purga...or purge...or...
"The Gates of Hell" Rodin's unfinished, decades long in construction so it was not needed for the original project is exhibited at Stanford.
It is one of seven recreated bronze from the original in the world.
I spend hours looking at it when at Stanford and I'm sure that when I get there (HELL) I will be able to enjoy trying to figure it out for eternity,
so, there's an "up" side to everything I guess.
The Cantor Arts Center has over a hundred exhibits, mostly bronze, of Rodin's works and is well worth seeing if you are into that type of thing.
Other works also and it's one of the few free museums left. Parking is pay but reasonable and free on Sunday.

It's such a relief to know that all our problems are just a temporary
situation that can be reversed by putting another Bush in the WH. All that war,
torture, and financial collapse really united us as a nation, it was the "good ol' days" and we didn't even realize it at the time.

No, not a Bush, he was no conservative... but thank God it was him in office when we were attacked and not some apologizing leftist.
After the current guy, we need another Reagan to heal and unite the country.

Yeah, thank God we had GW to bury the evidence that the Saudis were behind the attack and fabricate
evidence to justify invading a country that had absolutely nothing to do with it. God forbid we would have had someone in office who might have gone
after the people who were actually responsible.

Ah yes, Bush was so good at all of this -- two wars that should have never happened, and then they were not funded, and totally mismanaged. Yes, Bush
was a jewel. He even looked in to the eyes of Putin and saw that he had a good heart.
BTW-- Obama is far from a leftist. He is much more of a centrist and thank god he thinks things through before engaging the total war machine. Then
again, he doesn't have a VP who would stand to become wealthy through the war contracts given to Halliburton.

Ah, to wear rose colored glasses and sing kum Ba Yah as the country falls, with more people without full time jobs than when St. Barry was anointed
and more on Food Stamps... surely the great nation envisioned by our Forefathers?

I shouldn't have to point
out that there were a lot more people on food stamps and without full time jobs when GWB exited office than when he entered. There were also a lot
more American soldiers who were dead or maimed for life as well as a couple of hundred thousand less Iraqis and a completely destabilized middle east.
Yep, those were the good old days!

not taking sides here, just playing devils advocate. what about letting Egypt fall and turn into a mess. what about failing to do anything in Libya
when they gave up their nukes-it's a garden spot these days. how about Yemen which our feckless leader called a "true bright spot" which just had our
embassy evacuated?
both sides are part of the same equation. it doesn't matter who is in control because the lobbyists pull the strings. quit pointing fingers at each
other and lets light the torches and grab the pitchforks and take this country back so that reasonable common sense ideas prevail.
I'm going back to work now! carry on.....

Politics and Religion in the same thread.
A possible response: "Wow! That‟s interesting! How'd you come to that conclusion? Tell me more about what led you to this
perspective."
I do what the voices in my tackle box tell me.

Yet another pearl from the Great Oyster. One more and there'll be enough for a necklace.
Who was it who got Bin Laden? Oh yeah, the conservative SEALs (under the current CIC I believe).

No offense meant to oysters; at least they can strain out something good from what they take in.....

Hurrah, Skipjack Joe!
Jeeze that was funny. Oops, I better not say "Jeeze" for fear that some may confuse the phrase for the late, great JC of Bibical fame.
The Inquisition indeed!
I would like to see a remake of this, casting duh-duh-duh-DK in the Mel Brooks role.
