And closer to the real topic, my wife is a big churchbanger, and I have come into close contact with many of the churched through her.

Taken as a whole, I ain't seen much difference in the churched and the unchurched, I'm not talking words, I'm talking actions, which is beliefs personified.

I do recall from my drinking days that the barroom crowd was a lot less critical of other folks in light of their own obvious flaws than was the case with the church crowd.

Got me to thinking that maybe Jesus hung out with who he did in part because he preferred the company.
