Well I wasn't questioning specific events, just saying that Jesus often used metaphor and symbolism to get important points across. But it's OK, differences will happen. :)

I think it's similar to when he said if your right arm offends you, cut it off. It doesn't mean literally cut it off! Nor is he talking about your right arm! He just means if something is preventing you from being a good person, then it shouldn't be in your life. In the same way, he's not...

Lol, well I guess that makes sense, they want something that's new that they don't see very often. It's like when you go to another country and try to speak their language, but they really want to practice their English, lol.

It's largely a figurative statement. He was just saying nothing should be more important than God and what he represents.

Yeah I noticed that too. I guess the practice had gone out of favor at that point? I agree, I do think too much attention was put on people like Palin because they got people excited. Fine. But she can't realistically run for President. And now they're struggling to find good candidates!

Perfectly explained! :) Good point, why drag innocent cartoons into this mess? Yeah I'd say the Riddler as well, but especially if it's Frank Gorshin, lol.

"I'm really sorry that you've been misled, but like you've heard me said: Not Guilty." :) --George Harrison (Hey, wasn't he a hippie? Wow, imagine me quoting a hippie. ;) )

Um, honestly, not guilty of these things you keep saying. I'm sorry but you're reading into my comments things that aren't there. Don't know what else you want me to say. Should I concentrate more on criticizing conservatives? ;) Hehe

Lol, OK but I assure you it's the same statement. I said it's something I see often. Not always. But often. I didn't think that needed to be clarified. Of course not, but you have to have life in perspective, which some don't. No singling out. I was responding to one comment by another...

I honestly don't see where I did that. I admitted that I was using a stereotype and didn't apologize for it or take my point back. And I made it clear that both sides had some hypocrisy. Nowhere did I destroy my original point. There are some on the Democratic side who are too well off to...

Well of course I know it's a stereotype. But stereotypes by their nature are based in some fact. I'm an Italian American and I admit, some Italian Americans have mob ties. Does that mean they all do? No, of course not. But there is certainly sometimes a connection (sadly). Are all liberals...

It was Louise Gold. :) That's pretty impressive about your Disney Store though! But you're right to be cautious, especially when there's no refunds. ;)

As far as Democrats failure on the radio, in my opinion Democrats take themselves too seriously, spend too much time preaching and frankly insulting the very people they want (and need) to support them. The Republicans may not care about the working class, but the key is that they pretend...

Oh yeah I mean my family was definitely middle class. I don't mean people in that group all are spoiled and shouldn't have the opportunity to make a positive difference. Just that sometimes they need a healthy dose of reality. ;)

That's why I have some serious doubts about the current two party system. It's all about belonging to a side and defending that side. Rather than help improve the nation, it's just brought out the Middle Schooler in people. Well the main thing is that Republicans have been more successful on...

I've always considered myself liberal but that's one thing that has occasionally disenchanted me about the liberal movement. It's often made up of people who have never suffered or worked hard a day in their lives. Some of the so-called hippies back in the day may have "dropped out," but they...

You know the other day I saw a comment on the Web where someone made a nasty comment about Republicans, and then stopped himself and said something like, "I'm sorry I said that, I mean, most of my family are Republicans and I love them all. I don't know where all the animosity comes from."

And thank goodness for that! ;)

I guess that really comes down to personal preference. Godspell is actually considered about as Mickey Mouse as they come, hehe. I did love all the shots of New York and how good they made it look, despite the turmoil the city was in at the time. See for me, I'd rather stay where I am and...

Yeah I doubt that would happen too. The Church would likely be left alone. Well that's always the way. Political conservatives scaring its voters and Political liberals scaring their's. About all either of them are good for at this point. ;) Well it's not like this would be the first time...
