1. Life would be easier for all of us

if we had dropped out of school in second grade.

[Purveyor]

2nd grade is much to early. 8th would have been a good 'checkout

point' for me.

Life was so innocent until "high school"!

Of course, that was 30 years ago so by now, perhaps your are right...2nd grade and out!

:)

2. What else can you say but....

:crazy: :crazy: :crazy: :crazy:

6. Robin Hayes should be first in line to go to Iraq

to convert all the Muslims to Christianity. Lottsa luck, lady!

[whistle]

3. Hey, why has that not been thought of and tried before?

:eyes: :hurts: :wow: :hide: :yoiks:

[tanyev]

7. I think they did try it once or twice.

[jwirr]

12. Exactly.

[Lydia Leftcoast]

4. Iraq has had its own Christian minority (Eastern Orthodox) for

over 1500 years. Sorry, Islam won that one.

[Liberal Veteran]

5. Okay....THAT is why I gave up on organized religion.

I'm sorry if I offend some people of faith in saying this, but if you think religion is the answer to every problem facing your life or the world, then your religion has crossed over from being a good thing into being a pathology.

It's the ultimate copout. Instead of doing the work that it takes to live in harmony with other cultures, they would rather just change everyone into a carbon copy of themselves.

And it is so damned arrogant and condescending toward others. Everyone else has to change to accommodate me.

I can't stand that attitude.

8. They should try it here first. Then take it to Iraq if it works.

Apologies to G.B. Shaw.

[IndianaGreen]

9. I am all for it! Let's send all the Christian evangelists to Iraq at once!

And let's see Iraqis put those IEDs to good use for a change!

10. Good, Pull The Troops and Send Dobson and Falwell ,,n/t

[jwirr]

11. How brilliant! And they are likely to listen after what the fundies

and *ss have done to them. :sarcasm: You cannot win hearts and minds by killing them first.

[fuzzyball]

13. If they double the no. of virgins from 72 to 144, it may work

LMAO

[opihimoimoi]

14. They already tried it right after Baghdads fall, The Bushies let in the bible thumpers

and it stirred up a hornets nest....things haven't been good since.

ya would think them Fundies would Learn???

[chknltl]

15. What about spreading sanity here first?

Worth a try I say :patriot:

[gratuitous]

16. Let's see, "the message of Jesus Christ"

1. Love God.
2. Love your neighbor as yourself.

Naaah, it'll never work!

Geez, was that guy a socialist, or what? "Give to everyone who begs from you, and lend, expecting nothing in return. Love your enemies. Do good to those who curse you and pray for those who abuse you." I mean, what kind of nonsense is that?! And how could this kind of message possibly be spread at the point of a gun or by shocking and awing with lots and lots of bombs? I'm sure that Mr. Hayes has something very different in mind when he's talking about the message of Jesus Christ.
