before the Industrial Revolution, you likely were the farmer.

Wow, you've really mastered the power of positive giving-up.

I'd trust pretty much any farmer over me.

I've always found the Book of Matthew rather beautiful: "For I was hungry and you gave me something to eat, I was thirsty and you gave me something to drink, I was a stranger and you invited me in, I needed clothes and you clothed me, I was sick and you looked after me, I was in prison and you came to visit me...."
It goes on to say, "Unless you live in a city where gays can get married, in which case, to hell with it."
OK, it doesn't really say that last part, but the D.C. Archdiocese may be confused on the point.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?
Yeah. And relatedly, Catholic Charities Stuns State, Ends Adoptions.
Some days, I really hate humanity.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
Some days, I really hate humanity.
That's because some days, THEY SUCK.

And while we're on the subject: U.S. Bishops To Vote On Mandatory Feeding Of Vegetative Patients In Catholic Hospitals.
And do Catholic hospital officials intend to override advance directives or medical powers of attorney? Remember, many people live in a community that has only a Catholic hospital.

Jesus fuck.
Actually, the one reason I really hope they're right about the whole Jesus son of God thing is to see the epic smackdown he lays on their asses in the afterlife. Except shit - he's all about that forgiveness crap. Damn. Surely he'd make an exception? I mean, right? It's not like they'll repent.

You know if the Archdiocese decides to pull out of providing social services, maybe someone else can be found to provide the same services for the same amount of public funds the Archdiocese accepted?
