Overheard at the Missouri Baptist Convention
""I understand that the Bible does not say, never says, 'Thou shalt not drink,'" said Tolliver. "It is also true to say that the Bible does not specifically refer to drinking as a sin. However, … the only Christian position in this 21st century Show-Me state environment that we live in is total abstinence!"
Wow, someone has now set themselves up as the baptist pope. As my friend and pastor says, "I am glad they are working on being holier than Jesus."

You know, Jesus was not really all that holy. In fact, he was kind of a trouble maker, getting drunk and throwing wild, table tossing, parties in the synagoge while people were trying to engage in the holiest of holy activities, capitalism.(I apparently have no idea how to spell synagoge) He touched lepers, argues with the "church" leaders and even hung out with prostitutes. For an example of holiness, he was really kind of crappy. His father must have been so disappointed.
