Re: The August 29th curse


A truly wise person wouldn't
go for all this religious imagery.

So you're saying a religious person can never be truly wise; and that Abraham Lincoln, Martin Luther King, Thomas Jefferson, and John F. Kennedy were not truly wise men.




If someone believed in the Tooth Fairy, it would put a dent in their wisdom. Do you think that Abraham Lincoln, Martin Luther King, Thomas Jefferson, and John F. Kennedy really believed that good people go to Heaven and bad people and non-Christians suffer eternal punishment in hell? I bet even George Bush doesn't believe that.
