    That's not me. And fyi: You look like a witch. So be careful not to wear any black clothes or you might get shot and killed by your own people.

            According to you, you're going to Hell. Either way, you're damned, whether there's a god or not. You're so infused with hate towards everything that isn't like you, you can't truelly live.

              When have I ever claimed I was going to Hell? At one point, you seemed to be capable of making some kind of half-coherent argument, so it saddens me to see you descend to this level of drunken nonsense, it really does.

                You never said that you were going to Hell, but according to your own beliefs in god, you're going straight to the fiery pit in a hand-basket.

                  No, our actions are entirely consistent with God's commands. Why would God damn His own followers? It just doesn't make any sense.

                    Religion is tearing this world apart. It has caused the majority of wars in the world, leaving men, women, and children dead nationwide.

                    tell me what wars have been cause by religion ?.

                      Some of the more popular ones were called The Crusades. Then of course, The continuing war between Israel and the arabs, and the Sunnis fighting the Shiites in Iraq and elsewhere.

                          Then you are about to receive your very first Blessing from a Member of Landover Baptist Church, Sister - from ME. Because everyone else in this whole darn Congregation keeps pestering me to know about Every Little Thing...and I told Jesus I wouldn't squeal on Him

                            But Sister Sue Vera,you must admit it's just a bit unusual for JC to be using Badedas shower gel & clutching a rubber duck!

                              It is not for us to question His ways, Sis.

                              Although I did wonder why He was wearing those cheapo 'sea-anemone' plastic shower thongs from the Dollar Store, Lord Forgive me. I mean, "Master of the Universe" (or is that God? Or that old He-Man cartoon character?) or not, they just looked SO tacky!!! And what made Him take 'em off and use them to splash Water at me?

                              Something in me must have brought out His Inner Child

                                Sister Sue Vera sometimes takes a little nip of eggnog in the morning. I mean a little glass of eggnog, not a little jap of eggnog......anyway, she ended up in the shower with Jesus....but, as it turned out, it wasn't our Lord who was there for a second coming, it was Hay-soos the messkin gardener. And then another time it was Bill Clinton, but that's a whole different story.
