Sorry

I think you know the point I was trying to make (about the president and his powerful friends), it wasn't about the christians you know, or the christians I know (my family).

I think you know I wasn't trying to be mean.

Please lighten up.
Hey it wasn't offensive (it didn't offend me anyway), I just think it's kind of mean to poke fun at somebody's religious beliefs. I don't think you should have deleted it - the management is the only censor here and thankfully they're pretty tolerant of all this free speech. I say put that sucker back if it's the way you feel! Let this thread stand as it is! Hell, if we deleted every post that offended somebody there wouldn't be anything left of it!!!

As far as "the point" you've been trying to make - you started out bashing Bush and his administration (and I don't blame you for that!) but the more you talk, the more I'm of the opinion that your angst is actually caused by conservative Christians and their beliefs and Bush just happens to be their figurehead and thus the focal point of your anger. (And I don't mean to pick on you - I don't think you're the only one doing this by any means - it's just that you seem like you're thick-skinned and vocal so I can shoot straight with you).

I find this curious for two reasons.... but it's 10pm and I gotta hit the road to A-ville. Time to lighten up! No PC, no TV, no phone and if I don't do some midnight plumbing tonight, no water in the morning either! So this conversation will have to continue Monday - or not! We'll see if this magnificent beast lives a couple more days...

Have a good weekend!
