Bible Study in Plain Language: Matthew 22:15-22

[kdavoli]

15 Then the bigots went out and laid plans to trap Jesus in his words. 16 They sent their Bible Study mavins to him along with the 700 Club members:

"Teacher," they said, "you have some rock hard cajones, and we respect that. Moreover, you aren't swayed by humans, because social status doesn't seem to matter to you, just God's Honest Truth. 17

You run my favoritest Bible study group EVAH.

This is super-awesome. This approach puts me more in a mood receptive to divine contemplation than I have been in a very long time.

If you can make "Jesus curses a fig tree" make sense to me, then you will defeat the major roadblock that turned me off of Christianity when I was 12 years old.

Preach on!

Very nice!

I'm surprised the bastards didn't arrange for the amendment to be on the ballot *this* November, though, just to get the troops to the polls.

they can't do that. it doesn't go to a general election until it gets passed the PA congress twice. Tho it is a bit of a dick move to have it out there now

[grouchyoldcoot]

Yeah, but- they knew that, right? The ban-gay-marriage amendment ploy has been used for years, and they're professionals. Why did they get the timing wrong?

Oh, maybe they did try it (or something similar) for the election 4 years ago, and that set the *5* year clock running.

What I want to know is, what happens if a county is so rural, there's only one paper in it? Or do the P-G and the Inquirer count for each of the counties they're available in, which I imagine is most of them?
