Rum , Rome and Royalism

I would much rather belong to a church five centuries behind the times and majestically indifferent to the fact than to a church five minutes behind the times, frantically running to catch up.

You Can't Make Up Stuff This Funny

The 1.3 million member American "United Church of Christ" once a strongly Calvinist denomination, recently held it's national convention. At this convention, a motion declaring that Jesus Christ is Lord was moved, and soundly defeated. So, a denomination calling its self United Church of Christ can't agree that Christ is Lord. As for the minority who supported the ressolution, it seems they won't be leaving but will rather take the "stay inside and fight" aproach. I can, up to a point, sympathise, but there surely comes a point where you just have to leave.

I'm not sure who said it, but you can't reform a whore by giving her make-up tips.
