I unconditionally love you, B. Buster. Just remember that.
: You excercise restraint? That's a joke, right?
I've exercised restraint in not cracking your nuts in my pepper-grinder. But then, I'm a fuckin' Zen Jedi. You're all very lucky.
: The Catholic Church is against both of these. Kevin Smith professes to be a practicing Catholic. What do you think his stance is?
If I knew, would I ask?
: Then again, Kevin is also an American and American Catholics are notorious for picking and choosing what Catholic beliefs they're going to honor. It's dishonest, but, hey, what do expect from a bunch of hypocrites?
Do I find it hypocritical that a person, in spite of all the pressure to accept a complete set of beliefs, some of which may contradict each other, might depend on their own inner morality to "pick and choose" rather than blindly following them all? Not in the least.
But I'm certain you'll tell me why I'm wrong.
