Change


In my early teen days I had an occasion to stop behind the Lowther's house on the cut-thru to talk w/ Dan where he taught me the valuable lesson of an "eye for an eye". Before I'd left he'd managed to at point blank put a pellet in my foot. I rode off swearing and crying feeling wronged and when I got home my dad "taught me a lesson" for not giving up the name. He was not going to pay for the hospital to extract that pellet. That was the day I quit believing in God. With a capital "G". It wasn't until after my 29th birthday I learned the lesson of don't lie, don't cheat and don't steal, which started me on a life of simplicity. Basic stuff that rules all for me. It wasn't until after delivering my son did I really accepted God back . I still believe you don't have to believe in God to get to heaven. What do you have to do??????? Don't lie, don't cheat and don't steal. If my kids don't learn anything from me you can bet they 've learned the simplest form of happiness. So if you feel I've cheated you J by describing you as a Socialist/liar I will schedule a time next spring for you to "teach me a lesson". But....remember it was you who looked me in the eye and said;" I will lie ,cheat or steal to get my point across or achieve my goals concerning the enviroment" or was that someone else. Merry Christmas to All

I'll turn the other cheek so you can kiss it too. There, feel better?

I don't have to lie, cheat or steal to get "points" across or achieve goals concerning the "enviroment".

Nor do I need to resort to putting libelous words in another person's mouth to advance a hidden agenda.

I do endeavor to form succinct thoughts, use credible data sources, and spell everything correctly, however.

Why lie and mess up a good thing? Writing about the truth of man's impact on the environment does all the dirty work for me.

Especially when it flushes out denialists like you who consider it blood sport to kill the messenger.

Jesus was a first-class messenger. Judas was a first-class rat.

It's a grand tradition.

You're running out of first amendment privileges here at the CC blog.

Good luck with Heaven too.

Reality - without Judas Jesus would have been just a talented prophet. Once we accept that all of us have a reason for being we'll stop pointing fingers.
