“Turns out conservative talk show host Rush Limbaugh and possible-Koran-fueled-firebug, Terry Jones, were high school classmates. Both were members of Cape Central High School’s class of ‘69 in Cape Girardeau, Missouri. ”

That was some kind of wacky class.

“And He said to them, “When I sent you without money bag, knapsack, and sandals, did you lack anything?”

So they said, “Nothing.”

Then He said to them, “But now, he who has a money bag, let him take it, and likewise a knapsack; and he who has no sword, let him sell his garment and buy one. For I say to you that this which is written must still be accomplished in Me: ‘And He was numbered with the transgressors.’ For the things concerning Me have an end.”
So they said, “Lord, look, here are two swords.”

And He said to them, “It is enough.” ” (Luke 22:35-38, NKJV)

Not tell us what you think this passage means?

“Judging from his history, Jesus would give up, get horribly killed, and then wait for a higher power to take care of everything.” Satan, Casey and Andy.

In actual Christian gospel, Jesus orders his followers to do anything to get weapons, including sell the clothes off their backs.

E.g. Not wash his hands before dinner? I think I will pass on that one.

Few years back was talking with a Marianist priest who had asked me what I had been reading.
Told him the “Our Father” section of the Catholic Catechism. He shook his head and frowned.
“There are two things that get Catholics into trouble”, he said. “The Old Testament and “The Lord’s Prayer”. Careful what you take out of them.”

Most evil perpetrated by the Catholic Church has been justified by the Old Testament. Just ask Galileo.

I most admit I was a little “trollish” with James, but I found it sweetly ironic he’s from Oregon.
Other than that, what? Bashing the Catholic Church is trollish? I thought you’d all approve and embrace me.

Mouth off to the judge and get the death penalty.
