When you get your plans set let me know. I have a couple of customers in the Memphis area I might be able to visit and get together with you for lunch or coffee if you want to. I still haven't seen Eddie & Sherri's new sanctuary in JAX!

Mr. Smith, Left-wing Libber. Has kind of a nice ring to it.
When the bible says, "Thou shalt not", you need to look at the original Greek manuscripts. You'll find that when a predicate and a pronoun and an adverb, combined with a past participle, inverted through a subjective verb, are intersected with the word "Not", there is a Greek rule that actually makes a word mean the opposite. So when the bible says, "Thou shalt not commit fornication", the word "Not" means that you can't, NOT commit fornication, so in actuality, we're commanded to commit fornication. Not only is it not prohibited, it's commanded.
How's that for "Left-wing liberal"?

Brilliant statement and this could apply to American Christianity.

Is "Shema" short for "Shemale" and some sort of transvestite gathering? I mean I believe in being inclusive but.........
Wish I could have seen you while you were in TN.

Well, the correct answer for me would be:
I was a female before I married and I remained a female after I was married. I'm now divorced and I'm still a female. So my sex is female no matter what my maritial status is and I think God approves because - - he made me.

That's the best answer I read in this thread!
