Charles sez... Quoting Gautama-san:

"Believe nothing, O monks, merely because you have been told it... or
because it is traditional, or because you yourselves have imagined it.
Do not believe what your teacher tells you merely out of respect for
the teacher.  But whatsoever, after due examination and analysis, you
find to be conducive to the good, the benefit, the welfare of all
beings -- that doctrine believe and cling to, and take it as your guide."

-- Gautama Buddha, The Dhammapada

Don't the Xtians see that their hypocracy--the very behavior they
consistently model--is a RED FLAG to the rest of humanity?

I wonder what kind of people can tolerate the immersion of their collective
noses into the dirty laundry of an over-sexxed politician for EIGHT months.
Get your nose washed!

<<<worst joke I ever heard>>>
what do you get when you cross a crooked politician with a crooked lawyer?

Chelsea.

That poor thing!
