Telling your wife she doesn't look fat in that dress is the same as raping an murdering your own daughter? That's non-sense.
”In ‘that’ sense, all sins are equal in that they ALL separate us from God.” Lying is a sin, and separates us from God. Murder is a sin, and separates us from God. In ‘that’ context, both of those sins separate us from God. Sin separates us from God. Period. ‘That’ is the point.


Since all sin is equivalent, all laws should have the same penalty, 5 Hail Mary's, a 25 dollar fine, followed by death by stoning.



Damn, you made me laugh out loud !

The degree of my privacy is no business of yours.

What we've learned from history is that we haven't learned from it.
