WHEN I WAS A BABY BIGOT WE WERE VERY POOR AND HAD NO INDOOR PLUMBING. MY MOTHER BATHED ME IN THE CREEK BEHIND THE TRAILER OR IN THE WASH WATER AFTER SHE DID THE LAUNDRY. SHE WORKED AT A RESTAURANT (AND ROLLED CIGARS), AND I ATE FOOD PEOPLE LEFT ON THEIR PLATES.

BUT WE NEVER SHIT IN THE CREEK OR IN THE GARDEN. I SHIT ON USED PAPER AND IT WAS BURNED IN A BARREL. WE DID THE SAME IN VIETNAM...SHIT IN A BARREL THEN BURNED IT. BUT NOT THE GOOKS. THEY SQUATTED WHEREVER AND CRAPPED. USUALLY SOMEPLACE EVERYONE WALKED.

Why are you shouting?

India is making progress. Even 100 years ago and more recently many Western countries had the same problems with lack of sanitation. In the 1960s most countries around the Mediterranean used to pump their untreated sewage out to sea.

James, I view you as a self-made man.

(Which relieves the Almighty of a terrible responsibility.)

My genealogy indicates I descend from Joseph of Aramathea, Mary's uncle, so maybe I come by my aptitudes honestly.

If you believe in God, you believe He gave us free will, which is clearly unfortunate in some cases.

Being descended from a myth takes some balls to claim. Explains quite a few things too. As does the claim itself.

Now I know that there's a psychiatry label for that kind of thinking.

I've said before that I'm not a Christian. I'm convinced Jesus was a small-time socialist who pissed everyone off.

But he did live and die and he had a mother who had an uncle. In fact he was placed in that uncle's tomb after the crucifiction.

So what part is the myth?

 

[Boota]

There is no proof that Jesus ever actually existed.

 

[JAMESBJOHNSON]

BOOTA

Actually there is. One of the old Roman guys mentioned the crucifiction, and I wanna say Pontius Pilate made a mention of it. I read a book about Jesus, written by a significant Jesus scholar, and he cited the old records.

Now! Much of Jesus' biography is myth and legend, but somebody named 'Jesus' sure as shit was crucified during Pilate's tenure.

 

[gauchecritic]

somebody named 'Jesus' sure as shit was crucified during Pilate's tenure.

Well, being the sixth most common name at the time, the likelihood is rather strong.

Jesus was a small-time socialist creep. He played for your team. He wanted to be big-time, so he went to Jerusalem to beard the lion in his den...the lion won.
