A perfected Jew

Heh. Chaver, I barely have enough time these days to sleep, and you think I have time for a show?! To say nothing of the the need to sell your first-born so that you could afford to to to some of these things. (Remember, I’m in the NY Metro area. I’m sure that, being experienced with NYC yourself, you know the deal.) I will say, though, that I’d be happy if it always got me empty seats next to me when I fly so that I could stretch out my 6’ frame–so, okay, fetal-position myself–for the occasional nap on long flights. :slight_smile:

I’d never thought of it that way, MM. Kinda cool. (Though I do * have a friend who’s an Afro-Hispanic, gay Jew. Don’t know if he’s an atheist, though, as I’ve never asked him. Good guy, too. And he’s just as cute as he wants to be.) Not, mind you, that this has been appreciated in most regards. Hell, it hasn’t even helped me pay for college. Now, if I were at Berkeley… .
*Anyone who’s familiar with the Berkeley application circa 1997 (I don’t know if it’s the same today), will know what I’m talking about. “Are you a Mongolian-Lithuanian, lesbian socialist?” etc. :wink:

Heh-heh-heh.

Hey, man, what with all the shit I’ve got going on, I try *really * hard not to draw any undue attention to my unconventional ass!

Makes me wonder how all them Democrats got elected President before 1920.

Maybe, but I’d recommend a Hazmat Suit as well. The face of Ann Coulter could make Dildos Scree in fear… :smiley:

Am I the only one who thinks she looks like shes developing an eating disorder?

I think food is just terrified of Ann Coulter.

Jews would have a somewhat better life in Coulter Country because they don’t have s country that doesn’t like the US. Remember her screed on Muslims:

I think that famous Madam’s apple of hers is actually a bite of food, stuck in her throat and preventing her from eating for the past 20 years. If someone would just give that bitch the Heimlich maneuver, she’d turn out looking like King Kong Bundy inside of six months.

I can relate. Pisses me off when you tell me what my kid has to learn in school, even without a fraction of God’s claim on her.

Dear Sir:

I am, sir, an admirer of your many cinematic acheivements, as well as your many progressive efforts in the political realm. It is in this regard I approach, knowing you to be a man willing to make the needful sacrifice for the common good, however distasteful, even horrific, the prospect. I am also aware that, being quite wealthy, you can afford a substantial amount of drugs. Sufficient, I am sure, to wipe even the most repulsive memory from mind. Are you sitting down? Please, if you would, before reading further.

Would it be possible for you to fuck Ann Coulter? Several times, if need be? Bump uglies, slip her the pork sword, dance the fandango horizontal? I realize this is an alarming prospect, and hasten to assure you that I would not seek such a sacrifice from you were it not so urgently needed. By her, to be sure, but the rest of us just as surely. I would venture the duty myself, of course, but I am advised that my physical charms are modest, at best, and even my dearest would knife me in my sleep if it would bring her within bone-jumping range to you.

You are the man for the job, sir, and stern duty calls! Strap on your shining armor, and griddle your loins! “Once more into the breach, dear friend, once more!”

I wait in hopeful anticapation.

Your obedient servant and etc.

I must ask you this, elucidator: why do you hate George Clooney? :smiley:

I should have thought that rather obvious.

Nah, I just wondered if there was another reason besides that one.

Well, sure. Godzilla’s not the only lizard, but still…

Once more? :eek:

Not at all. Jesus Himself said the Greatest Commandment was to love God with your whole heart and to love your neighbor as yourself – a sentiment that has popped up in basic form in other religions. It’s perfectly possible to follow the will of God, and to lead a life that an objective observer would characterize as good, without any knowledge of Jesus at all.

Sure I can. What I would miss are the things Jesus left for me to help me along my way: the Church and the sacraments. Without those aids, I believe I’d find it much tougher to be a person that was good and pleasing to God… but by no means impossible.

It’s not the treating others as you would have them treat you part that i’m finding odd; it’s the parts that involve God. Certainly you would be correct to say that loving deity-in-question pops up in pretty much all religions with a deity, but I can’t love God if I don’t know of him. I can’t worship him if I don’t know of him. If loving God is part of the Greatest Commandment, I for example am alright with one half (well, reasonably. Ish. Not as much as I should.) and pretty much out with the second, and i’ve heard of God. You can’t love someone you don’t know about (you don’t actually get a choice in that even when you do, but that’s another matter).

But that’s still only half of it. That you need to be a good person seems ok (though as you say, those aids would help). You could even stumble upon a helpful aid without even hearing about Christianity at all. But you couldn’t pray. You couldn’t love, or worship, or confess your sins to God, because you don’t know him.

If your belief requires only earthly goodness, fair enough. But it seemed to me (and still seems to me) that your views require interaction of some kind of with God, and you can’t interact with someone you don’t know about.

Interesting how this thread about Coulter disrespecting Jews has turned into a debate on the finer points of Christianity. Yes, it’s becoming clear to me now… Jews should convert to Christianity because, er, then we can ALL focus on Jesus the true god.

I am assured that those of the Hebraic faith are amply supplied with theological fine points to bicker over.

Or Bricker over?

As to the discussion about knowledge/love of Deity being a prerequisite for salvation (whatever that is), I don’t pretend to be able to contribute anything truly substantive; but I will throw this into the mix: Matthew 25:37-40
