When I enlisted the recruiter wanted to know what religion I was. I told him "Christian". He said there was no such thing as Christian. I had to be a specific denomination or Protestant, Catholic, etc.
I told him, "Okay, I'm a Pagan. An Apostolic Pagan to be specific."
He listed me as "Christian".
I refuse to identify to a specific Christian based faith...they all act like political groups; paleo-this, neo-that...too damned many self righteous people in both arenas. Just look at all the good "Christians" who want to kill the Mussies.
What was the nexus between Christianity and the Rule against perpetuities? What was the nexus between Chrisianity and the common law rule regarding proximate and actual cause?
I can sort of see being a nutcase candidate but I cannot see spending my own money on it....
Straight Druid or Southern Revisionist Druid? Orthodox Druid?
Did she say it, or not? If NOT, where is the immediate response, that should have been sent out after this was published?
As to the rest, I agree with you, completely.
Give me a break. This is all blown out of proportion just because the person who said it is Harris. Had Rudy made these remarks, you guys would be high-fiving each other.
I've been following Harris since the 2000 election and since we are moving to her district, I have, for the last few years, paid even MORE attention to her. I've always liked what I saw, but lately, she is imploding and saying some very peculiar things.
I'm a reformed Druid. We only practice human sacrifices on the Sabbath.
Story? I'm thinking of branching off and starting a fringe political branch of the Pagan faith...a sort of Constitutional Pagan Party. We'll run on a platform of dancing nude under the full moon, barking at people and building cattle fences for $300,000 a mile.
So my "Get bent" comment is deleted, but PhiKapMom's "Stuff it" comment isn't?
It seems to be running parallel with other "Conservative" darlings like George Allen. This foot-in-mouthitis must be especially contagious during election years.
Which Sabbath is that?
I suspect that she's trying to pander to what she feels is her base either through outright statements or "coded" statements. Either way, she's getting some bad advice.
On the other hand, she's really entertaining.
I was glad to find in your book a formal contradition, at length, of the judiciary usurpation of legislative powers; for such the judges have usurped in their repeated decisions, that Christianity is a part of the common law. The proof of the contrary, which you have adduced, is incontrovertible; to wit, that the common law existed while the Anglo-Saxons were yet Pagans, at a time when they had never yet heard the name of Christ pronounced, or knew that such a character had ever existed.- Thomas Jefferson, 1824
Had Rudy uttered such political stupidity, would be all over it, like white on rice; you pathetic excuse for a FREEPER.
Wow, I'm stunned.
How long did that take you to think up?
Had Rudy made these remarks, you guys would be high-fiving each other.
Rudy was mayor of NYC and ran highly disciplined campaigns. Smoke would come out of his ears and his head would explode if he ever made that kind of statement.
