A word you don’t hear much anymore is co-opted

Yes it is
Probably because it started with a pretty dam good poem

I think it was a poem
I wouldn’t know
it was laid out like a poem
but I don't know how many feet it had
was it iambic or blank
I don't know jack sh*t about poetry

all I know is that
"We are lesion"

JESUS IS MY COMRADE.
That sort of sums up the problem with Xtianity, rilly: Jeee-zuss was merely a Comrade---neither Aristotle nor Archimedes. Che Guevara ain't Einstein. And water ain't wine (or chocolatay).

Serio, would even Saint Vladimir (as in Lenin) allowed JC in the Duma? Ah doubt it. Or they would have had JC play chess for a few days, and if He beat a real comrade (like VIL), then awarded him his H and S colors. Or maybe just tossed him in mineshaft.

Tinkerspam, why not stick to topic of thread. Redneck Xtians are hardly more sinister than the yankee sort, ala Rev. Hillary and Rev. BO.

sorry e-dog I thouhgt I appologized to you too for the ramble even though I don't see it as unrelated to the subject. George Bush has no shame, that is what makes him so popular with his religious base.

Don't apologize Tinkerquack! Write more brilliant social commentary, and include some cutting-edge graphics.
