Yes, because your post sounds a bit hysterical. The more you "win", the more you seem to lose. But hey, your boy Billy Jeff carried a Bible & invoked the name of the Lord sometimes.

So anyway, what's with the spam?

If it had only been two posts repeating, I wouldn't have written my response to you about the spam. You wrote two different posts that said pretty much the same thing.

Indeed, to attempt to acknowledge the deceased without invoking the deity would have sounded very weird,

Won't stop the secularists, though! Oh, well, they can always fall back on the "death is a part of life" theme, which always sounds ponderous, if not noticeably comforting.

Chesterton made fun of "free thinkers'" attempts to rewrite Christian hymns for a "humanist" society (late 19th, early 20th century?) -- he notes especially "Nearer, Mankind, to Thee," which he said always makes him think of straphangers in the afternoon crush!

Thanks for posting the info on the Episcopal Bishop. Surely Rosie can't be afraid of women like her. With leaders like that, the Episcopalians won't be around much longer.

MAGNIFICENT! One of Steyn's best yet!

I find myself saying that at least once a month. He's my hero.

I'm not a member of the GOP. What makes you think my vote has any effect or should have any effect on yours?

Cause & effect too difficult for you to grasp?

What is even more ludicrous is the recent "discovery" by the lefties that that the supposedly arch-Christian admin is just using the evangelicals for political purposes. If that's the case, then that would by logic make the admin anti-evangelical. So lefties which is it: is the admin just a bunch of Jesus-freaks, or are they cynical manipulators? They can't be both.

A further mark of the decline of American civilisation is the fact that we give national speaking platforms to the likes of Grossie O'Dumbnal.

The only way I could tune into her show would be a patent guarantee that a group of burly people would denude her, roll her in tar and then feathers, and run her straight to perdition on a splintery cedar rail.

"Radical Christianity is just as threatening as radical Islam?"

The only response O'Donnell's inane remark deserves is my tagline.

Liberalism is her religion - see Savage for more. Her morality is in question, and she being a liberal, one who knows so much about so little, believes she would be safer if she were to deflect, and bring xtianity into the forefront of her argument.

Thanks. I'm shaking my head sadly. A once great denomination is dying in the west. The good news is it appears to be doing fine in the 3rd world.

It's also doing very very very well (And Good!) in the diocese of my home-from-home church, First-World Singapore's Saint Andrews Cathedral, whose Dean and Bishop, John Chew and his diocese's entire subordinate clergy are as traditionally, historically and theologically Anglican as are any I have ever met.

Rosie O'Donnell is Roman Catholic?!?
I have never heard that before. Where and how often does she attend?

The marketplace of ideas is very harsh on the silly, which is what the "mainstream denominations" have become, and very good to those that remain true to the historical truths of Christianity. We could almost think there's someone else in charge.
