Oh puhlease.

Give the show a break.

Ditto...

If there's one thing noticable about Christians, it's Biblical nitpicking.

Most folks seem to believe it's them and their group that gets it right, and all the rest are going to hell.

I was walking across a bridge one day, and I saw a man standing on the edge, about to jump off. So I ran over and said, “Stop! Don’t do it!”
“Why shouldn’t I?” he said.
I said, “Well, there’s so much to live for!”
He said, “Like what?”
I said, “Well...are you religious or atheist?”
He said, “Religious.”
I said, “Me too! Are you Christian or Buddhist?”
He said, “Christian.”
I said, “Me too! Are you Catholic or Protestant?”
He said, “Protestant.”
I said, “Me too! Are you Episcopalian or Baptist?”
He said, “Baptist!”
I said,”Wow! Me too! Are you Baptist Church of GOD or Baptist Church of the Lord?”
He said, “Baptist Church of GOD!”
I said, “Me too! Are you Original Baptist Church of GOD, or are you Reformed Baptist Church of GOD?”
He said,”Reformed Baptist Church of GOD!”
I said, “Me too! Are you Reformed Baptist Church of GOD, reformation of 1879, or Reformed Baptist Church of GOD, reformation of 1915?”
He said, “Reformed Baptist Church of GOD, reformation of 1915!”
I said, “Die, heretic scum”, and pushed him off.

I agree completely. Wasn’t The Lord more upset with the yokes of the self- appointed Sadducees and Pharisees placed upon the people. The nit- picky rules they derived simply to be self- righteous. In essentials unity, in non essentials liberty. I must work on every other Saturday and Sunday, these folks would deem me unfit for “their society”. Don’t worry about the cleanliness of the cup folks, worry more about the cleanliness of your soul. God Save us, if we are upset about the color of an actor or any other detail. The important thing is The Message, The Truth. /rant Love the Series! I plan on buying at least four copies, this is as good as the Ten Commandments. Powerful stuff.
