Fat shaming. Good way to start your stay here.

of the political fence. There are also very obese people on this forum and no doubt it makes them feel wonderful when they read this kind of nonsense here.

are overweight. Not one of us needs to be fat-shamed. That you felt the need to do so -- and to defend your egregious post -- says more about you than it does about a myopic woman's sycophants.

WTF is with attacking people for their appearance? What website am I on?

Davis issue. There is plenty to criticize without fat-shaming, but I suppose it makes some people feel superior in some way. I find it sad and indicative of their character.

Separation of Church and State? If we don't, then start taxing the churches who can not follow the Constitution.

It is into this hopeless, decaying world that the Church of Jesus Christ is called to bring salt and light. We do battle with the sin that destroys from within and the enemy who destroys from without. We are called to take captive our thoughts and make them obedient unto Christ (2 Cor. 10:5). Then we are called to crush the head of the enemy robbing, killing, and destroying (Gen. 3:15, Rom. 16:20).

I thought Jesus was kinda opposed to this head-crushing business. Shows how little I know.

I posted a sample here:http://www.democraticunderground.com/?com=view_post&forum=1002&pid=7146219

Sublime satire (and not so sublime) at its best. And yes, George Takei, Wil Wheaton, and Denise Crosby show up for a Star Trek subtheme.

Highly recommended click-through.

and started rolling back again.

It's like one of those games where there are two knobs and you try to tilt the board to guide a marble through a maze without it falling into all the interim holes along the way. God's trying to get all the nuts into one hole, but there are too many nuts, and too many interim holes for them to fall into.

That's my theory and I'm sticking to it.

It links to a site that (I guess) kind of compares "conservatism" to that salt substitute that you can buy when your blood sodium is too high. If you've ever tried it (I have, back when my friends would keep asking me "Would you like some french fries with your salt?&quot , you'll know that at first taste, it SEEMS like salt, but it just isn't the same.

I GUESS that's what they're getting at, anyway. The only thing I really took away from it is that the author was influenced by The Kids in the Hall:

any one here call for limitation of the rights of free speech. You know they have the right to be there and say what they want, right? We do not want to limit free speech in this country. At least I do not.
