If a constitutional amendment against marriage based on Bu$h bible
Edited on Tue Feb-24-04 03:30 PM by Mari333
leanings, how about a Constitutional Amendment against Gluttony?
I mean, fair is fair.

1). First, repent for yielding to the temptation of lust for food. (Phil 3:19, "Whose end is destruction, whose God is their belly, and whose glory is in their shame, who mind earthly things".)

(2). Then, submit to God and ask Him for the power to overcome gluttony through His Holy Spirit and resist the devil through prayer and obedience to God. (James 4:7, "Submit yourselves therefore to God. Resist the devil, and he will flee from you".)

perhaps gay folks can open shelters for potlucking Baptists who commit the sin of Gluttony, and try to help them see the light?

1. I thought this was being addressed thru the fat tax?
They're already on it.

2. another idea
the Daily Show had a good idea last night. Why not an amendment banning adultery. Then marriage would truly be sacred (with the exception of spousal abuse and 55 hour marriages, of course)

Yay to 2Sailsgirls AND seabeyond! Glad you're here. Can I boast a little about my new sig line (not to mention the fact that I actually was able to figure out how to make one, all by myself, thanks to some guidance from Skinner!) It does the annoying nagging for me, automatically!
