They're considering many options to try the case. Among
the considerations are laying off a whole bunch of county
workers, and raising county property taxes. Everybody
would want the price of a vigorous defense if it were
them in the hot seat, and, I imagine, everybody in the
county wants a vigorous prosecution if the guy is guilty,
but nobody wants to fork over the bux to see that it happens.

Possibly. I know it was a book.

We all are capable of hate. I think I can say that
categorically. Creating an atmosphere where that hate
is acceptable makes one responsible in some way for the
outcome of having created that atmosphere.
He talked against their hypocracy. It was the hypocracy that he
hated, not the Pharissees themselves.
These are the words of others, and not necessarily reflective
of the way god sees it.
I think you have to look at how the definition of god evolved
It *all* ties together! Awk!

Oh SHIT! Who was the tall, skinny guy that used to be
the narrator for a VERY intellectual series. He collected
fine art and had a British accent. In his middle years
he played in some horror flicks IIRC.
VINCENT PRICE! That's the one I'm trying to think of!

I doubt if in a country with some 280,000,000 people we would
have to worry about running out of funds for capital cases in
some poor, rural county. Even at $1 apiece, there would be
necessary bux for trying a capital case in 280 poor, rural
counties per year. Of course, the tendency is for the counties
to say 'Uncle will pony up the cost of the really expensive ones,
so we'll only budget for, say, one case in the

Which has nothing to do with syntax. If he didn't hear the
spoken word until after his syntactical synapses were pretty
thoroughly established, his syntax would be a mess. My Louie
has never established any meaningful syntax, and never will,
and he is nearly 32 years old. The language part of the brain
is a very complex mechanism, which most of us take entirely
for granted, because we develop it long before we have any
consciousness that we are developing

The only thing I could picture when I read that was
sprouts of some kind. And that made me think of some
upscale, yuppie, vegan bar or something (macrobiotic
is passe, so it had to be vegan). My personal feeling
is, if I can't identify it, I won't put it in my mouth.
So far, that rule has served me well.

New Thought differs from NewAge (rhymes with sewage) in some
significant ways. They aren't normally into all that hocus-pokus
stuff that we associate with New Age. They don't do the crystal
power/pyramid power crap, for example. They strike me as more
Eastern in their approach than anything.
I used to have breakfast every morning with a colleague who at one
time attended a very large (and successful) New Thought church

I don't agree. We speak of ___ having X, but we aren't

The Bible was written by people, Jim. Get used to it. They
thought their thoughts on certain matters were directly from
god, but, in fact, they were speaking of their own thoughts

It is sooooo easy to call somebody lazy, instead of accepting the
possibility that their brain doesn't work the same way yours does.
But, isn't doing that also a form a laziness? Isn't it easier to
write him off as lazy, rather than expending the time, energy, and
caring it would take to accept the possibility that you are
mistaken in your assessment of him?
Don't fall into the same trap Judith did; you're bigger than that.

No, as a matter of fact I don't laugh at those people. I
am not humor-impaired, but pick my subjects more carefully,
confining my mirth to things that are far less serious.

No, he just decides what is right and what is wrong by

I think that it is best to try to bring these people around
to a more sane form of Christianity. It is probably impossible
to bully them into giving up the Xian point of view altogether,
but one can at least hope to use the Bible to tame down their
rhetoric a bit. I don't care what a person believes, but I
think that what we believe goes a long way toward determining
who and what we are.

That's why I have serious misgivings about Gore's pipedream to
have Internet access for every school-age child. I doubt if there
are many gradeschoolers and damned few high schoolers nowadays with the discretion to know when their bullshit detector
ought to be screaming bloody murder.

All I've seen is heckling. What tools were offered, and
how do you know he has refused to use them. He can hardly
be blamed for ignoring 'help' offered by his hecklers. It's
hard to take somebody's word seriously when it is buried in
so many jeers.
