Well, I was trying to put it discreetly, but I was actually referring to your little problem of the pus leaking from your… you know… well, it’s not really possible to put it discreetly, but anyway it must be a real nuisance having to wash your brassieres so often, and you have my sympathy! 🙂 🙂 🙂  
ETA: The quoted text above actually was in **James Otto Sweet Heart** ’s original reply to me, but she later changed it in edit. What’s the Pit policy on quoting another poster’s text that they subsequently changed?

I don’t have anything close to that. I have a couple of misquito (spelling?) bites, but that is it.

I don’t do that. 🙂 🙂 🙂

**James Otto Sweet Heart** , if you could answer a serious question, I’d be very grateful: what is your opinion of the following verses from the New Testament, and how do you you incorporate them into your life and actions:

[Matt. 10:14](http://bible.cc/matthew/10-14.htm)

[Luke 9:5](http://bible.cc/luke/9-5.htm)

And as long as we’re on the subject, how soon do you suppose you can decide to apply the admonition to us here?

I think that **Beastly Rotter** has a good point couched in language **JOSH** should understand, were she not a complete psycho.

Girl, you have an obvious and inappropriate crush on that poor bastard you are stalking. You may not recognize the sexual component, being nuts and all, but absolutely everybody else does. You are frighteningly obsessed and you worry him and scare his family. Stop it or get help.

As for what you said about that sad woman who killed herself, that was pure evil, _and doubly so because it has absolutely no basis in the Bible._ It is **heresy** , pure and simple. You should beg forgiveness from God for putting words in His mouth, and from the children of Mindy McCready for saying such a horrifying and hateful thing about their mother.

Someday you may step out of your mind and into Reality and realize how evil you have been. That is a true Hell and the only way out is through the good works Jesus actually mentioned: feeding the hungry, clothing the naked, comforting the sick, giving shelter to the homeless, and visiting the imprisoned. Basically, don’t be a jerk and make the world a better place.

This is my favorite Pit thread in a long time. I am so convinced that religion is a mental disease after reading all the posts, I was literally LMFAO. Priceless.

JOSH, you have GOT to ditch religion, right away. From all your posts defining Jesus, what’s a sin, what your uneducated preacher tells you, you must realize that you have created your very own religion. Not one person who shares the pews with you feels exactly the same way about it than you do. Your religious words and beliefs are only about hatred, only about pointing fingers at people YOU THINK you are supposed to dislike. And why do you say these things? Because you convinced yourself this god prefers it that way. You are as fictitious as the bible is.

But you won’t burn in hell for it, because there is none.

As far as your James Otto worship goes (which is clearly stronger than your worship in a god, because we can fact check J.O.), have you ever tried some other genres of music besides country rock? Stones? Beatles? James Brown? Ray Charles? And if Otto didn’t sing any songs about Jesus anymore, would you still worship him? What if you found out he was atheist and only sang about Jesus to sell records?

Even the Catholic church stopped teaching that suicides go to hell a long time ago. (That was back before mental illness was understood)

So if someone doesn’t resist a rapist, that means they’re somehow consenting? You’re insane.  
BTW, if you want a REAL country singer, who was also a Christian, I’ve got two words for you: Johnny Cash.

**Guin** , you know what the answer to that will be… Catholics aren’t real Christians, what with the Mary worship and all. Duh. 😉

Nobody’s trying to take away your beliefs, you crazy unforgiving noisome termagant. You can believe a suicide victim is going to hell until you die, and that’s just fine by us. We want you to shut the fuck up and show a little civility around the grieving survivors.

I laughed WAY louder at this than was necessary. More like :eek::eek:🙂 though, amirite? Only the front guy should be happy.

Yeah, poor Holly is definitely misguided, but I don’t see her that fucked up. She said she’d pray for Drew, not protest funerals. Though there is the east Tenessee thing…

Ah, see I was objecting to **faithfool** ’s cruel suggestion that we impose her upon _them_. The WBC has done some evil in their time, but they don’t deserve to have Holly foisted upon them. No one does.

You’re looking at it from the other direction? o.k., I can see where you’re coming from. Still, I think the WBC comes off worse in the deal.
