See toilet; Flush.
Still talkin' crap, I see. Do you have to try to be as offensive as possible? Does that help get your message across?

I got it, I got it, I got it, why didn't someone tell me this sooner? "No meat and I can get to heaven." I haveeeeeeeeeeee seennnnnnnnnnn theeeeeeeeee lighttttttttttt.
You mock what you don't understand. Consider this, are not abstaining and fasting the direct opposite of the sin of gluttony? Wouldn't avoiding sin be good? Do you think Jesus was being silly when he fasted? Do you think imitating Jesus is a bad idea?

Matt. 20:10ff
Bass, I don't get it. The point of the parable, I thought, is that we should not be jealous of the mercy of God shown to others. Yeah it sucks to follow God all of your life while your brother boozes and womanizes. But if your brother comes to find God, even if on his death bed (end of the day in the parable) we should rejoice for his being saved, not grumble because we had to work all day.
So yes, there are folks whose lives are changed at the last moment, but that doesn't mean that salvation is a "one moment" event for all. In fact most of us have to spend some time working in the fields.
