I have one wed, one betrothed, and and one unwed.
I have no idea where that puts me in the grand scheme of godliness. In my little picture, though, the engaged daughter is the second, so I have learned my role. “Yes, that looks nice. Here is another check.”

Wow! So do I! One of whom doesn’t know her left from her right; the other has it figured out, but not yet how to tie the shoes.

Of course the whole notion of an age of consent is alien to these folks. The whole notion of *consent* is alien to these folks!

Is it really ungodly to be unwed when you’re still a child? Should everyone be married at birth?

Thanks, Steve, for bringing up this page again. I was just looking at the Tom Brady section of the Ungodly Athletes page, and realized I am ungodly. He points out that Tom Brady has an unwed child. Hmmmmm—-so do I; actually, I have two.

So would Obama, as long as you buy them first.

I think I speak for all authors when I say, please, please burn my book. Just pay for it in cash first.

Or maybe he just didn’t pay the bill, the offering plate being a little empty with only 14 members in the congregation.

In Acts it was the owners of the books themselves who initiated the burning as a sign of repentance and counting the cost (they were quite expensive). It wasn’t a ritual mandated by the early church as this appears to be. I wonder who’s more pagan?

And if those two combined with Westboro ‘Baptist’ ‘Church’ they’d still be under 100.

Not fair to the firemen: even Montag and Beatty knew Ecclesiastes by heart (with Montag actually getting the message).

You’d think they’d keep their Ungodly Athletes page up to date. I just went to see what they got wrong/left dormant:

Adam Archuleta is long out of the NFL, Chris Henry’s dead, the webmaster confused Chad Joh…er, Ochocinco with Javon Walker,

Also, I’ve heard a lot about the Petty family’s faith, so for now I’m willing to guess that cheating quote is old.
