Because the Mathew 18:15 thing makes a good deal of sense to me. Problem is, when I have those conversations with people who are truly destroying their lives and the lives of those around them, it has no effect.

You can take most of that bullshit and poke enormous holes in it, and once having done this, the adherents will run away rather than make any effort to accept that they could be in error. And it finally dawned on me why.

They think they’re smarter than G-d. They think they know better, so they can make plans based on the certain knowledge that their plans are in perfect tune with the Creator- no matter how ludicrous they are. And when someone points that out, it really upsets them, and they run away.

You can’t use logic to argue someone out of a position they didn’t use logic to arrive at. Oh, sure, they think they used logic, but their reasoning is based on the shibboleths of their tribe- like “Voting is immoral” well, of course it’s nothing of the sort and it is ludicrously easy to prove that it is nothing of the sort.

Unless you’re smarter than G-d, of course.

Pray, folks. Keep your powder dry, but pray. I estimate maybe 50-80,000 actual Christians left on earth- Abraham tried to find ten righteous men in Sodom and Gomorrah, and in the end, Lot and his family had to bugger off. I don’t know what the population of those cities was, but 50-80,000 Christians is a pretty small percentage.

As the wingnuthead administration jockeys to take us all to war, while handing out marriage certificates to idiots and opening the doors of dope stores and ensuring that millions more innocents be murdered in the name of convenience, One is called to wonder, why, if the sane outnumber the insane, have we left the lunatics in charge of the asylum?

I know HOW, certainly. Conservatives are following their liberal masters and eschewing the polls each time they don’t get precisely the candidate they want- Man, did Ross Perot teach the liberals a trick or two!- so the odds of us dragging this country back to the right get slimmer each election. What am I talking about- the odds of dragging it back to the MIDDLE.

Savage, lunatic that he is, predicts a shooting war. If it comes to that we will assuredly lose, because the left has the media and the court of public opinion. I don’t see this going well. Trouble is our backs are against the wall- there is no place else to go.

Oglet: Hyperbole much, Dad?
Og: I have been here so long I grew a BEARD.
Oglet: Dad, you’ve always had a beard.
Og: OMG! I have been here so long I have developed ALZHEIMERS!!! I FORGOT I ALWAYS HAD A BEARD!
Oglet: …..
