Capt?n Skeeter,
Ya?ll talkin to me? If so, I didn?t claim Jesus Christ had political affiliation of any stripe. Last I checked Jesus lived some 1750 years before the US was the US and during a period of Imperialist Rome and many iterations of the human experience before current concepts even existed. I would agree that the Christian ethic has helped form a lot of the fabric of our culture but I don?t see where that has been the exclusive territory of US Liberals for the last 600 years or so, not hardly. Good book for you to read: ?A Distant Mirror?, as it is all about the 14th, 15th and 16th centuries and all our common roots.
Alas, sorry for buttin in on your stream of consciousness and musings Capt?n , but then I?m a scalawag ?Black Shoe?, right? And didn?t get in on knife, fork and napkin school or declared by Congress to be a genneman of any sort, LOL, so excuse my bohemian behavior if ya will. I think of myself as a marooned 7th fleet pirate actually so I?m not big on alleged ?Blue Bloods? messing with my real and well established blue collar-hardhat ethic.
I?m glad I have a sense of humor today, you a funny Capt?n, sure enough.
Scamp
P.S. Ya Col. Scout, I know, you're right. Maybe this is a bad thread where we mix politics with religious thought and concepts.
Tic, tic, tic.....booooooommmmmmm!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
