Message: [QUOTE="reglardave, post: 691462, member: 15394"] I think, hopefully wothout intending to, that posters in this thread are arguing at cross purposes. I don't care a fig for how "religious" people view any of this. I'm a PK, grew up in churches, and wanna hear my take? Tuff, you're gonna anyway. ORGANIZED RELIGION, WHATEVER DENOMINATION, IS BUNK! Those who proclaim their piety the loudest are the biggest hypocrites of all. Churches are 1.) social gatherings (good thing) and 2.) crutches for people too wishy washy and weak minded to form and foster their own beliefs and convictions.:eek: Why should we mind that J Yang and Lee Watkinsons mom pray to God for the nuts? You think God cares? Unless he had a props bet on either one or the other, I'd be very surprised. So religions are anti-gambling, eh? I feel sure that some of you at least are Catholic. Your parish never has Bingo night? For that matter, seems to me the whole idea of praying and paying you or your loved ones out of Purgatory is nothing but a shell game or a crapshoot. I judge a persons "Christianity" by their deeds and actions, not by who professes theirChristianity the loudest. "Blessed are the meek". " About time they got something, 'cause they have a helluxa time"* Jerry Yang pledged 10% of his winnings to charity. Coincidently, that is a traditional "tithe" in many religions. By my lights, and though he'd probably deny it, Barry Greernstein is the most "Christian" of them all, and don't even THINK of making Antisemitic slurs. My.02, now I'll don my flame retardent suit, and y'all can have at me. *somewhat paraphrased from Life of Brian.;) [/QUOTE]
