        that reminds me of something i once told my mother in an email.

        laws are in place for those who DON'T want to follow them.
        Judges 9:21 And Jotham ran away, and fled, and went to Beer, and dwelt there, for fear of Abimelech his brother.

          Thanks for contributing.
          I don't relish being a lone poet here.

          Let's define aphorism for the unsaved trashers:

            You can always tell a Baptist preacher
            but you can't tell him much!

                        We can't fix serious with serious. It's been tried. We put our faith in funny, and trust the outcome.

                          Re: Your original aphorisms

                          There's a lot of evil folk in this world, and the Catholics and Polacks are among them.


                          What it may lack in snappiness and catchiness, it more than makes up for in truth, IMHO.
                          O Lord our God, help us to tear their soldiers to bloody shreds with our shells; help us to cover their smiling fields with the pale forms of their patriot dead; help us to drown the thunder of the guns with the shrieks of their wounded, writhing in pain; help us to lay waste their humble homes with a hurricane of fire; help us to wring the hearts of their unoffending widows with unavailing grief; help us to turn them out roofless with little children to wander unfriended the wastes of their desolated land in rags and hunger and thirst, sports of the sun flames of summer and the icy winds of winter, broken in spirit, worn with travail, imploring Thee for the refuge of the grave and denied it--for our sakes who adore Thee, Lord, blast their hopes, blight their lives, protract their bitter pilgrimage, make heavy their steps, water their way with their tears, stain the white snow with the blood of their wounded feet! We ask it, in the spirit of love, of Him Who is the Source of Love, and Who is the ever-faithful refuge and friend of all that are sore beset and seek His aid with humble and contrite hearts. Amen.



                          God being truth, justice, goodness, beauty, power, and life, man is falsehood, iniquity, evil, ugliness, impotence, and death. God being master, man is the slave. Incapable of finding justice, truth, and eternal life by his own effort, he can attain them only through a divine revelation... he who desires to worship God must harbor no childish illusions about the matter, but bravely renounce his liberty and humanity.

                            Dunno. Find a metaphor perhaps? Example hat
                            What to do with that?
