Indeed, of the cruelest sort. Nevertheless, the butcher Kissinger
continues to justify his illegal and genocidal manipulation of Nixon's
policies regarding VietNam (as only one major example of evil in the
whole affair.)

As did so many innocent VietNamese. Slightly off the subject at hand,
please allow me to clarify my posturing: All I was doing was mocking
xona. She'd posted (but not here) a rambling, full-of-it essay about how
her father (who is presumably responsible for her much-hated
Catholicism?) was SUCH a brave man for fighting when (gasp!) *Rush
Limbaugh* avoided the draft. (It really, really matters!) This seemed to
be an unusually sincere, if preposterously self-serving posting by xona,
so I referred to it a couple of times to poke fun at her.

BY NO MEANS do I actually mean disrespect to those who served, nor to
those who avoided service based on their convictions. I can honestly
honor both choices, and don't pretend to know the facts regarding xona's
alleged father. Nor do I really care about xona's father. The point was
to poke fun at a tiresome self-described troll and moron. (Yes, she
calls herself those things, although I can only agree that she's a
troll. Moron? Nah, she's got a brain, it's just how she uses it...)

Yeah, that Jesus was a very wise Jew, wasn't he? :) I'll have to
remember that next time Usenet's beloved Steve Winter calls me "false
Christian scum," not that it'll have any effect...

€ alas - about one million.

€ Unsubstantiated rumour has it that Rush was rejected for military duty
by a base psychiatrist because Rush reportedly rushed a box of jelly
filled doughnuts in the medical facility waiting room - and began snarling
at the doctors and nurses, who hastily retreated and called base
security. By the time the MPs arrived, the doughnuts were history and so
was Rush

€ Agreed. Mr. Winter appears to be somewhat frost bitten betwixt the ears.

This is because the liberal doughnut conspirators, after having
programmed Rush "Manchurian" Limbaugh via remote-control mind-microwaves
to covet the jelly doughnut, *planted* the object of his desire in the
waiting room. Their standing order only specified "old fashioned glazed,
apple fritters, and those cute little numbers with the multicolored
jimmies on top," NO WHERE in this document does it mention "jelly!"

> € Jesus was apparently half Jewish.

LOL! It took me a moment to get that one. Wow! I'm impressed!

> € Agreed. Mr. Winter appears to be somewhat frost bitten betwixt the ears.

But of course, any such inference only PROVES that we are "false blah
blah blah" and that he is the world's martyred One True Christian. I
think the funniest thing about Winter (besides the fact that he's using
"Rev." *falsely*) is when he accuses other religions of being "cults." I
mean, his ministry has a membership of one! (Well, two if you count his
wife...he actually kicked his son ou!)

Actually, because Jesus was fully human and fully Divine, he was 100%
Jewish. There was no mixture of blood in His line which was from King
David. Now, His Divine nature (which was different) came directly from
the Father.

In Christ Jesus,
Dan

Well, this was a joke, Daniel, based on the idea that the "other half,"
or other parent, was God himself; you know, that "Virgin birth" concept.
:)

In all due respect, though, my Jewish friends always remind me that
Jesus was not only a Jew, but one of many such "alternative preachers"
of his times. Of course, they don't happen to believe he was the
Messiah, but that much is the most obvious difference between Judaism
and early Christianity.

-Burro, who apologizes if Daniel did indeed get the joke.

Then, you'd better apologize. :) I knew what he meant and I also knew
that there would be some who would butcher the meaning and say that it
would mean something completely different.

In Christ Jesus,
Dan, who knows the difference.
