    have we had this yet? from an article in the irish times where they talk to kids about life:
    I don’t really believe in God, although he’s meant to be kind and love everyone. Because I believe that when people speak to you it’s rude if you don’t speak back to them, and if you turn your head up to the sky and say, “God, do you like my shoes?” he doesn’t say anything.

    A belief in gender identity involves a level of faith as there is nothing tangible to prove its existence which, as something divorced from the physical body, is similar to the idea of a soul. - Colette Colfer

    Come on... Really? Hardly a spoiler. Now, if I said
    Batman
    died in the final episode tonight, that would be a spoiler, and worthy of the tags I out on it.

    I'd love to know what else I could be doing with it - sculpture or painting perhaps?

    I occasionally hang a towel on mine - the missus says it's childish and so immature, but I know she secretly loves it:D

    That's the first new organ-related joke I've heard in 20 years :o

    Season 2 episode 4

    Did not realise he had done it twice. The first is from season 2, but the second is from the most recent. Will he ever learn?

    But what about Mary?

    Dr John Hagee said "there is no greater sin" than wrongly using God's name during sex and "simple blasphemy" should be punished

    Women who cry out God's name during sex should be jailed, a US pastor claims.
    Dr John Hagee believes "there is no greater sin" than wrongly using God's name Dr Hagee, the founder and senior pastor of the Cornerstone Church in San Antonio, Texas, points out that the Bible consistently denounces the taking of the Lord’s name in vain.
    Speaking to Newslo, Dr Hagee said that "in this world of crimes and deaths that surround us, a simple blasphemy does not get that much attention when it should."
    He said saying the Lord's name in vain might seem "petite and insignificant compared" to other things happening in the world but, that’s "precisely the problem".




    If the shepherds of a faith start doing wrong, he said, they cannot offer guidance to their flock.
    He said there was "no greater sin" that using God's name during sex, adding: "That is one of the filthiest, most derogatory and sinful uses of the Lord’s name I can think of.
    "If it were up to me, I would put every single woman or girl who does that in jail."
    He said that locking women up would be "a fine example of God’s wrath".
    Dr Hagee did not explain how women would be caught and prosecuted for the 'crime' of using God's name during sex - or why men should escape punishment.

    One of my first thoughts was, "I wonder if he's pally with Rick Perry?" It's scary how accurate a guess can be.

    That's the same John Hagee who cheated on his wife then divorced her?

    John Hagee was the leader of the charismatic Trinity Church in 1975 and was the father of two children. John Hagee had an adulterous affair with a woman and admitted to immorality in front of his church. Pastor John Hagee then divorced the mother of his two children and married a younger woman (Diana Castro, now Diana Hagee) from that same congregation.
    Red faces all 'round!
