Update Season X - "It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas Vol. I."

[Sopranos Republican]

Did ya get to second at least this time?

[Joe Biden 2020]

Yeah, Kenya was never going to happen anyway, Allison just killed the dream off a lot quicker than it would have been otherwise.

Obviously Bushie lied about God speaking to him about it. Oh well. Bushie lies. We know this. He's admitted to being a liar before.

Case closed.

I don't think he lied, per se. He got infatuated with the idea, which Jeff is prone to do, and in the midst of all that emotion, he felt it must have been God saying, "Go! Go! Go!" It's why religious people protest abortion clinics or fly planes into buildings or start Crusades ... their personal emotion is so strong, and to rationalize it, they claim their deity endorsed their feeling, giving it weight in the face of outside skepticism.

It's OK to admit that, Jeff ... that Kenya may have been a short-term fascination that has fallen away to reality. But any such admission would probably mean that any short-term / strong-emotion decision or issue is more a product of your imagination and infatuation than a divine plan.

How's the resume updating coming, by the way? Do you need it reviewed?

Bluebells?

I still believe that Kenya is a calling on my life.  I still believe Allison and I will be headed to Kenya in the next few years.  Of course, admittedly, I am less sure of this than I was when I was single.  It could be just a dry spell in my faith.  I, along with all Christians, go through periods where their faith is not as high as at other times.  This evil world will weigh heavily on Christians that our faith goes through these periods of doubt.  That is also human.  I think that's what my faith is going through right now and I'm trying to break out of that train of thought and realize that my God has the perfect plan that will be enacted at the perfect time.  I just have to be willing and open to follow His will and obey.  I have a tough time doing that, because my flesh wants to do things that Jeff wants to do when Jeff wants to do it.

As far as the resume updating, I will be doing it as part of an assignment over the next week and a half.  I will also have it professionally reviewed as part of my course work after Christmas as I start getting applications sent out.

[Joe Biden 2020]

Did ya get to second at least this time?

Just first base.   It will stay at first base for a while.

Perhaps we should get a pinch runner in for you.

[Eraserhead]

Bushie, do you have a pet name for Allison yet?

[Joe Biden 2020]

Bushie, do you have a pet name for Allison yet?

Still working on it, but right now, the best I've got is baby.  She has her own nickname of Fluffy.  I like that, but I don't want to use it and get slapped, if you know what I mean!

[Joe Biden 2020]

You would think I would learn, but I can't post any of my political views on Facebook without being yelled at and told I'm wrong.  Have you guys seen that on my wall?

[Mr. Morden]

You would think I would learn, but I can't post any of my political views on Facebook without being yelled at and told I'm wrong.  Have you guys seen that on my wall?

No, because I'm not FB friends with you.  If you want to talk about something you posted on FB, then cross-post it here.

[Queen Mum Inks.LWC]

Inks, I do not wish to talk about my calling to Kenya, which is still alive.  I am basking in the glow of an awesome evening.

Ok... so you're basically admitting that you lied without actually having to admit it.

Don't worry, the punishment for false prophecy isn't that bad... I've heard it's more of a dry heat.

Still, you could be man enough to admit that you lied.  How do you expect to be man/head of your household when you can't even admit that you lied about God talking to you?

[Eraserhead]

Yep. The people of your state are a scary lot indeed. No offense.

It was just a lips kiss.  It will probably stay that way for a while!

I see you really stuck to your word on this one.  Seems like more falsehoods spewing from the blasphemous mouth of our "in house reverend".  And Jeff, before you go talking about me ruining your good name, remember that it was YOU, not me, who lied about God physically talking to him.

[Eraserhead]

Jeff, why is it that you go out of your way to kowtow to these loons on your facebook page? I see you're a "conservative Democrat" yet again and that you "do not like President Obama". Huh? I don't think I've ever heard you express that opinion before. You've always said you liked him (at least you did before you wilted under these ridiculous attacks). Grow a spine please and stand up for what you believe in (if you do have actually have any solid political beliefs). Don't let people bully you on your own facebook page!

See, if I admit to lying about God speaking to me, that would also be a lie...

You're right, I need to stand up to them and tell them exactly what I believe.  I'm just too scared to make too many waves.

[Mr. Morden]

The great Bushie-jmfcst debate about whether God spoke to him about Kenya is hilarious in retrospect:

You must be logged in to read this quote.

Except when there's true love involved.  That's enough to get God to change His mind!

[King]

Keep in mind, if God is all things, that means God is hungry for coitus 6 billion times a day.  It's perfectably reasonable for him to change his mind here.

[President Tyrion]

Keep in mind, if God is all things, that means God is hungry for coitus 6 billion times a day.  It's perfectably reasonable for him to change his mind here.

That's an underestimate, by far. You're saying that He would be hungry for coitus once per sexually capable person per day? Seems like it should be that way per person per 3 seconds, if the urban legend can be believed.

I havent, because you deleted me.. remember?

I realize that, but this was directed toward those who I do have as friends.

[Mr. Morden]

Really Bushie?  You're excluding those of us not deemed your "friends" in the Update thread?  What would Jesus think of such discriminatory behavior?

Again, if you want to talk about something you posted on FB, then cross-post it here.

THE GOVERNMENT WILL REOPEN TOMORROW MORNING!! The deal passed the Senate earlier with a 81-18 vote and has passed the House with north of 250 votes (218 needed). Good job, Democrats! Makes me proud to be a Democrat.

I'm glad Bushie posted this even though I could read it on his fb.  I forgot the Jeff Wallnofer (aka statesrights) blocked me from his fb for some reason so I couldn't see his insightful remarks    LOL@statez.

How could Jesus have blessed this country if he died almost eighteen centuries before it was created? White Southern political theology is weird.

Because, while He died, He also rose again and lives today.  Unlike Mohammed, Buddha, and Joseph Smith who died and are still dead, Jesus died, but was resurrected to life.  Plus, since Jesus is God and God has always existed, Jesus has always existed.
