    God rests in reason Bill.

    Of course, I don't what He is doing the rest of the time./

    Look hear Bill: what if God was one of us. Just a stranger on a bus. Trying to make Her way home. Huh, i think you may have overlooked that part of the story. You know, on earth like in heaven and everything.

    And speaking of heaven on earth Bill, I kinda like your HBO show. ... especially, your rather wry (rye?) sense of political 'pop' culture. woot. A little rash sometimes, but your political instincts seem reasonable at times.

    I will say, my main problem with 'judging', Bill, is the 'lest ye be judged' part. yikes. Of course a feller is gonna judge anyway Bill, you know that, who told you couldn't? Besides, the faith of no man can be conditioned by anyone but his-self. (*& don't believe a word you hear ... unless of course it's true.)

    Now, comes the plaintiff, Bill, who says Jesus ain't nothing but a fairy tale. Maybe, Bill, but The greater, overwhelming, Preponderence of scientific evidence is that Jesus was, indeed, a real, live human being Who walked the face of the earth. In fact, to argue otherwise is rather silly, not mention to unreasonable. ...so, what you talking bout' son. Are you daft?

    Allah is great,

    ps. I don't know about 'talking snakes', but have you ever been to a 'snake handler' meeting? They talk "to" snakes ... and, I swear, it seems to work like a charm. Hard to believe, but there it is.
