Originally posted by unofan View PostHonestly, on this one issue the Church really isn't hypocritical. Joe's protestations not withstanding, in practice the Church is pro life, and it means it. It's pretty much universally against both abortion and the death penalty on the grounds that all life is sacred.
To the extent that is at least a consistent moral message, I can respect it even if I disagree.Never really developed a taste for tequila. Kind of hard to understand how you make a drink out of something that sharp, inhospitable. Now, bourbon is easy to understand.

Don't know where else to put this, but Chicago protesters are shutting down a highway for a march.
One of their demands is stricter gun laws in Chicago.
Pssssst: many of your guns aren't coming from there, and also, how about curbing gang bullsh*?Never really developed a taste for tequila. Kind of hard to understand how you make a drink out of something that sharp, inhospitable. Now, bourbon is easy to understand.

Considering the last two years, Chicago should put up a wall and make Indiana pay for it."I went over the facts in my head, and admired how much uglier the situation had just become. Over the years I've learned that ignorance is more than just bliss. It's freaking orgasmic ecstasy".- Harry Dresden, Blood Rites
