We all know by now that being anywhere near a choir is basically a one-way ticket to Coronaville.

Meanwhile, casinos get a title shot outdoors at the ballpark.

The dissenting opinions read like screeds from the old Woman's Christian Temperance Union.

These people lack all imagination. They evidently can't envision an eternity of listening to others pain and anguish nonstop and not being deeply, and negatively, affected by it. These guys can't handle a crying baby on a nonstop flight.

I went to Catholic school grades 1-8 in the 60's. They introduced God-related stuff in every subject except science and math. Our science curriculum was done by the Jesuits, and them fellows ain't no slouches. You got to put all that sexual energy into something.

When I started 9th grade at a public school, I found I was ahead of the rest of the class in science.

Hasn't the Catholic Church done bingo from time immemorial?

Friends had to move to Cincinnati for a new job. Meeting with a realtor, the first question was, "What parish do you want to live in?"

I like how they throw Mosques and synagogues in there, as if they care about them. silently they are glad those are closed.

So churches can just install crap tables if they want to?I'm filing papers for incorporating as a church next week."The Holy Temple of Booze, 'Bortion and Blackjack." Services once a week at 3 a.m. on Thursdays and other days based on whether I've been drinking Jack Daniels that night.

In the Bible it talks about being persecuted and the world hating you - so come on, how are you supposed to know you're REALLY saved if you can't give examples of the world hating you for being a Christian? If you're not hated, you must not be a good enough Christian! And obviously if people frown at you, it can ONLY be because they hate how RAD you are at Christianing. Not 'cause, like, you're an asshole or anything...

I went to Catholic school 1-6th grades in the 50s; nuns were worried that our little fingers would be evolved away for lack of use (they must not have know about the samurai and their sword control). The only good thing I think I got from them was my love of reading. Well, and a hatred of nuns and priests that did not surface until I was in college.

Most Christians I know aren't happy unless they're talking about how persecuted they are. Whiners making up shit.
