Brother Epley, honestly...there is no confusion. There is sin in the church, horrible sin even where the sexes are separated and distinguished with great effort and consequence.

Funny, I was in the supermarket line yesterday and a very elderly man in coveralls sauntered up while I was looking at the Enquirer. He said, very hard of hearing and in a loud voice, "What is old HIll Billy up to now?"
I told him, "Well, it looks like old Billy has been cheating again."

He said to me way too loud, "Them two are nothing BUT cheaters, standing on a pack of lies, we have no business putting a woman in the white house anyway!!!"

I smiled in agreement, and slowly stepped away as the cashier scanned my Captain Crunch...

Re: Gender Blending: Is it Wrong?

Three men were hiking through a forest when they came upon a very wide, raging, violent river.
Needing to get to the other side, the first man prayed: 'God, please give me the strength to cross the river.'
Poof! .... God gave him big arms and strong legs and he was able to swim across in about 2 hours, having almost drowned twice.
After witnessing that, the second man prayed: 'God, please give me strength and the tools to cross the river.'
Poof! ... God gave him a rowboat and strong arms and strong legs and he was able to row across in about an hour after almost capsizing once.
Seeing what happened to the first two men, the third man prayed: 'God, please give me the strength, the tools and the intelligence to cross the river.'
Poof! ... He was turned into a woman and holding a map. She checked the map, hiked one hundred yards up stream and walked across the bridge.

Who built the bridge? A bunch of women in pants?

Oh...I realize I didn't finish the rest of the story.

"...being three hours behind the men and making sure she stuck around to teach the guys a lesson, she was immediately devoured by a jaguar that was waiting for her as she stepped off the bridge having only the map to defend herself."

...can anyone come up with a better "The rest of the story?"

Love that!

Political correctness can be so tiresome.
