Sometimes the truth is stranger than fiction, eh counselor?

If we can do it when there's a tsunami half-way around the world (which I'm sure some objected to also), we had better do it when our own people are in trouble. I can think of far less necessary things my taxes go for.
Good to see you, too...and congratulations, by the way. : )
Floating around these thread I get the impression there are those that live in a parallel universe where 'good' people look, act, drive cars, work jobs, think, function and live lives EXACTLY like they do. I mean, right down to the health of their family, the function of their cars, even their internal thought processes.
So this disaster in Nola is well, a giant clean up off all the people that aren't like them.
I mean, if someone isn't like me, they deserve to die, don't they ;) /heavy, pissy sarcasm
I know that people don't REALLY, at bottom, think it's okay. They just want things done the way it "should" be done.
It's throwing out the baby with the bathwater, imo.
Thanks!
Thanks!
Scrooge was an ultra-conservative. He changed too.
You might be right. Maybe someday that stone facade will crumble.

Wow. You already sound alike.
Hah!
Well, know you're in our prayers, FRiend...
It's easy to get that impression, isn't it? But I think that the folks out there that really do believe such things are mercifully few and far between.
LOL!
We can hope.
I don't mind expecting people to stand on their own two feet. It's just that I usually reserve that expectation for those who are in situations where they can.
I agree. When bad stuff happens, you'd be amazed at how incredibly good people can be.
At least, that is what I believe :)
History shows you are right, too, najida. :)
And the praise belongs to God for that. He always has a remnant.
Always.
No. Scrooge was a money-grubbing libertarian atheist.
True conservatives contribute generously through faith-based organizations.
Well said! Nice to see you posting again.
I suspect not.
Having already watched my only sibling be buried, and watching my father die of cancer, I am more callous than the average person when it comes to issues of life and death.
Perhaps you could explain the significance of your question?
