Funny Story.

Schweet! Now you got the inside scoop. If you ever need rare cigars, they can hook you up being a chain retailer. Always nice to have good connections.

I mean there's all sorts of useful advice in the bible relevent for modern living.

Stoning to death disobedient children, keeping slaves, selling children into slavery, animal sacrifices, putting to death those who continue to work on the sabbath, how eating shelfish and homosexuality are equal abominations along with wearling clothes made from different threads and planting different crops in the same field.

You can burn a bull at the alter as it creates a pleasing odour for the lord (so I guess he appreciates a good smoke). But I'm not aware about of anything smoking cigars.

All useful stuff to live your life by if you're that way inclined I suppose, though personally I've always liked to have a few oysters and a cigar after a hard days work on Sundays (fuck knows how many different types of thread I've got in my clothes)!

Nice score on the Punch.

If I were to add my opinion on religion, it would have to be in the politics forum, and even then would probably rile up another ban poll.

Who the hell are you?

Nice post. Religion and Politics are just those two subjects that people have their own interpretation on. Even if their beliefs are the same at the base, like Conservative Republican or Southern Baptist people still have different views on more specific matters. It's always interesting, for me, seeing how people have their different views and why.

A bud of mine is a Southern Baptist however he's very picky about the church he goes to because if the band is not traditional it's not right for him. To each their own.

truth is truth.

**cinda** · 11-05-2006, 06:18 PM

Hummmmmmmm I am still lost on how your boss could fire you for being a cigar smoker. Unless you were saying he would fire you for taking a gift from a customer? A gift that his own religious values disapprove? It's very disconcerting to me that someone's boss would hire or fire on the bases of religious values. How can he afford his insurance?

The New Testament has a completely different feel. Modern Christianity is pretty much based on it. Both are intersting but different.

And equally fictitious.

Woops, maybe you confused fiction with parable. You see, the New Testament uses many parables in order to convey useful information relative to modern living. Stateing the New Testament is fiction is inaccurate.
