By the way, I say the above as someone who has done more than most to explore the change-of-heart issues that led me from faith to "seeing the dark." People change their minds. And it's a long, often painful process. To dismiss it, just because you lack the depth of perception to understand it, says more about you than about us. I wonder if it's a defense mechanism. The last thing you want to do is admit that a reasonable explanation could lead you down the same path, so you just deny that we were ever people of faith. That way you don't have to come to grips with the fact that people of genuine faith could genuinely reconsider and genuinely realize a worldview without a deity at the center of it actually makes a good deal of sense. In any event, I was a believer. So was Oakspear. So was Sudo and so many others. And you do not get to come along decades later and rewrite our journeys just because you're uncomfortable with where we began. Get your edit-pen out of my past. It is not yours to rewrite.

Politics. If you'd like to discuss and debate the merits of Islam, take it to doctrinal.

TLC I don't think you have any idea how unbelievably condescending that sounds to those of us who spent a lifetime pursuing God and the things of God and leading people to Christ, only to have some self-appointed authenticity cop come along and say "You know I bet if you look deep down he didn't REALLY believe." $#%! you, if the truth be known. Because your inability to process a genuine change of heart doesn't invalidate it. Try again,

Definitely doctrinal. Will move it later, but keeping it here for the moment for visibility's sake.

I can name that tune in 1. I think. (those are not clues).

Next quote was gonna be "His name is Willie Lopez -- he's a Porto Rikkan." White but cute is Whoopi Goldberg finally seeing his picture. Just one drag is the Subway Ghost wishing he could have a cigarette. "Write it down" exchange was between Sam (1), Oda Mae (2) and Molly (3). Subway ghost angry. It was not his time! (these were the lines right before "just one drag"). And the name game was Oda Mae trying to prove she was communicating with the Latina widow's late husband, who (like me) did not know anyone with all those stereotypical Latina names until Maria. You're up.

Closer in genre. Still incorrect. *** "I'm feeling something. Did he know someone by the name of Ana? Shakes head no. "Consuelo?" Shakes head no. "Lucita?" Shakes head no. "Julieta?" Shakes head no. "Josefina?" Shakes head no. "Linda?" Shakes head no. "Maria." "Si! Si! His Mama! She is Maria!" "Yes, praise God, I knew he was with his Mama."

Incorrect. *** "What, you don't believe me? You think I fell? You think I jumped? Well, f@#$ you! It wasn't my time. I wasn't supposed to go! I'm not supposed to be here!"

"He's cute. White, but cute." *** "Oh, I'd give anything for a drag. Just one drag." *** Character 1 to character 2: "Write it down." Character 2 to character 3: "He wants you to write it down." Character 1 to character 2: "No, you write it down." Character 2 to character 1: "I ain't no damn secretary."

Nice reflexes. "David" was the vampire in the Lost Boys. I knew it would jog WW's memory. Unfortunately, not quite enough. By the way, did we ever get Broadcast News guessed? I'm so behind. You're up.

I will always find it amusing that the people who promote a book extolling the virtues of "be sober, be vigilant" can, without a hint of self-reflection, complain about people who are "woke," which is the same thing. Oh well, expecting people to be consistent when they mix religion and politics is a recipe for disappointment. Stick with religion. Take your politics elsewhere.

Where can you find pleasure, search the world for treasure Learn science technology? Where can you begin to make your dreams all come true On the land or on the sea? Where can you learn to fly, play in sports and skin dive Study oceanography? Sign off for the big band or sit in the grandstand When your team and others meet?
