He elaborated: "Put it this way. My wife is a saint.
She's a much better person than I am. Honestly. She's,
like, Episcopalian, Church of England. She prays, she
believes in God, she knows Jesus, she believes in that
stuff. And it's just not fair if she doesn't make it;
she's better than I am. But that is a pronouncement from
the chair. I go with it."

That's creepy.


No. Mel Gibson does not feel like arguing with God. However, he has been
misinformed as to what God's opinion is. :-)

You could say the same of Osama Bin Laden. Zealots are creepy,
regardless.

I don't know what God's opinion is, and I deeply mistrust those who
claim they do.

I distrust violent religious zealots, including atheists and other
supposedly non-religious types who think it is their mission in life to
protect the world from those who have religious beliefs. None of them can be
trusted.

I also distrust those who profess religious belief, but who feel that their
religion's beliefs and practices somehow do not apply to them. I distrust
those who publicly express religious beliefs, but who are privately
irreligious.

In short, I distrust those who are violent and dishonest, whether they are
religious or not. All such are creepy. I have no reason to believe that Mel
Gibson is either violent or dishonest.

Pretty much. Trust no one. Well, maybe you can trust Superman. And you can
trust me. But no one else.

I trust no one who shoves their head up their ass and calls it "the word of
god".

It's funny. I'm as close to agnostic as anyone here, yet in most
circumstances I will trust anyone -- until they prove themselves not worthy
of my trust.

(Then I get even. ;-)

Must be that Midwestern thing. I firmly believe in the innate goodness
within us all.
