Can I make a new board rule? Every time someone asks Lisa this question, I get a nickel... I figure in about 6 months I can buy us that compound!

Okay. Then I'll make it mean whatever I want it to mean. Very Happy

God is simply God. That is spiritual. Man tries to nail down the ineffable - utterly impossible, I think - and that is the religious.

The grat irony is when myopic people look at the religious and find it so ridiculous that they deny the existance of the spiritual.

Simba Major is hereby remanded in remedial typing, spelling, and use of the spell check button after the use of ridiculous words like "questio" and "grat".

All opinons rendered in such a manner are null and void. Including the ironic.

What kind of witchcraft is this? You assume to know the quality of another's eye sight solely by a simplistic grasp of their beliefs? I cast thee out, demon, OUT!

Substitute "Mythology" for "God" and the answer is obvious.

Semantics is the name o'da game. So much fun to play.
Am I a madonna or a dame? Maybe it's not for anyone to say.

Remedial nudity, to which I was sentenced a short while ago, sounded like more fun.
