I'm pretty sure everything Jesus ever told us we ought to do was on a consistent theme of modifying our own behavior, as opposed to policing somebody else's.

Happened on a choice Twitter hashtag to vent my insomnia on.
  • Hey, I told him to sell all his stuff and he didn't do it! Make him do what I said!
  • Make disciples of all nations. Everyone in all the nations. Everyone. Make it the law.
  • Marriage is between a man and a woman.
  • Bankers and merchants are really cool and deserve all the things.
  • Also, the poor don't deserve that oil. They don't deserve nice things. They're all lazy moochers.
  • Mike Pence is really on the ball and I like what he's doing.
  • Life begins at conception, instead of with the first breath like all the scriptures on the subject say.
  • Kill all the darkskinned people. Except me. Aw, what the hell, me too.

  • Thu, 16:00: I dare you to have seen this crossover anywhere else. http://t.co/XW14KHtvMX
  • Thu, 18:07: Remembered no bell choir rehearsal tonight only after already detouring to church from work. By bus.
  • Thu, 19:08: Jesus allowed government and religion to kill him to make a point, but first he got violent with the bankers.

  • Thu, 06:22: I'm spending so little time at home that this gallon of milk has actually lasted past its sell-by date.
  • Thu, 11:33: Anyone who thinks Jesus didn't speak in riddles insteada literally, purposely, needs to reread Matt. 13:13.

  • 02:09:24: Learned Friday that work is closing early Christmas Eve day.
  • 13:13:38: The dogma isn't God makes whom he loves rich. It's, God makes everyone wealthy and we accept it or not.
  • 13:13:57: Where "wealthy" and "rich" are not synonyms.
  • 13:15:34: Jesus is supposed to have been poor ... but he never missed a meal (except by choice) and soldiers gambled over his clothes.
  • 13:17:22: Speaking of Jesus, the 11/22 House has it wrong, historically. The nails went in the wrists, not the palms.
  • 13:42:13: House just called the patient on the historical error I twitted earlier.
  • 14:46:46: We ordered IMAX Harry Potter tickets online before we realized there's a blizzard going on today.
  • 15:19:11: Called the theatre, was told we can bring the confirmation number printout and see the show a different day.
  • 15:24:28: The DVR picked up Hawaii 5-0 for once 11/22. It has only two tuners; that timeslot must have been only two deep that day.
  • 15:27:13: The original theme arrangement's better. #hawaii50
  • 15:42:41: My grandmother liked Hawaii 5-0 because she thought Danno looked like my uncle Danny in the navy in Hawaii.
  • 15:47:36: I bet James MacArthur's Danno didn't have an ex-wife.
  • 19:16:24: Finally getting to see the Sherlock Holmes movie from last year.
  • 19:51:11: I see what slashers see in this.
  • 20:29:42: "You're locked in here with me."
  • 21:35:56: I'd've enjoyed it more if I hadn't seen Moffat & Gatiss' version first, but it was all right.
  • 23:04:54: It almost gives you the bends to go straight from Smallville to L&O:UK ...

scarfdad spent a few years right out of high school in a Jesuit monastery. When I was growing up in Omaha, where Creighton University is, it seemed to me like he knew every second Jesuit in the world. But during the seventies, eighties and nineties he lost his faith in the Catholic Church as an organization, and went searching for the root of Christianity to try and find out what Jesus Christ really taught unfiltered by corporate corruption - a sort of believer's historical Jesus. Many years of research has led him to the conclusion that we've been getting it wrong all this time. Jesus taught not forgiveness but tolerance, between which there's a subtle but important distinction: Forgiveness requires that a judgment be passed and tolerance requires that it not be.
