5. What Is Too Much?

I would like to know what kind of behavior would be too much? A married man having gay affairs? Multiple gay affairs? Is it OK to patronize prostitutes, rather than spilling your seed on the ground, as the Bible puts it? What about criminal activity? Occasional shoplifting? Slippery slope here, I think. So many of these TV preachers do illegal and immoral stuff, then say it's OK because Jesus forgives them when they repent. Of course, the repenting only happens when they get caught, but it seems to count no less.

I probably see more of Pat Robertson here at DU than if I was on his mailing list.

He realized that the people who were always thrusting this type of garbage in his face were liberals who were incensed at what the bigot wrote. "Just look at this," they'd shout. "How can anyone write such bilge?"

Bruce concluded that people like George Lincoln Rockwell, American Nazi Party, probably only had two followers. The rest who attended the rallies were nothing but angry Jews shaking their fists and wondering why there were so many Jews there.

The idiots are up to what the idiots are always up to - idiocy.

They have always been up to idiocy, and they will forevermore be up to idiocy.

What are the smart folks up to?

Thank you for this important update on Pat Robertson's advice to one woman who found out her husband of 11 years is having drunk gay sex.

I have noted this information, that he told her to stay married and forgive him so long as it wasn't "habitual".

I will employ this information to maximum effectiveness in, um, whatever possible context it may be useful for me to have learned. Perhaps I might encounter this woman and/or her husband, and will then know what I'm dealing with.

with his milk cow, they both have too many beers, and -- well, you know what -- what should the farmer's wife do? As far as she knows, it has only happened this once.
