Dear Edith: Wake up and smell the coffee. So you had a one time fling. But she's clearly moved on to better things. File it under "M" for memorable and get on with your life, sister. Or mister. Or whatever.

The happy, feel-good, love-thy-neighbor stuff is the genuine deal (for a given value of 'genuine.') The hellfire and brimstone is a quite recent invention as Christianity goes, and the variety peddled to Americans isn't as old as the Bill of Rights.

I just like that "love thy neighbor" pretty much applies regardless of religious belief or lack thereof. I don't believe in magic or miracles, but I definitely believe in helping people and being kind. Much easier to find common ground with other people that believe in helping and kindness than the ones that are fixated on punishment.
