Congress critters that I mentioned in the part that was there but I
have deleted. Sometimes I get too enamored with my own cuteness (g).

Ah! I do recall seeing that reference in one of your posts. OK, "Kute Kurt."

This is an example of hilariously sloppy Conservative thinking. It
renders your thoughts about religion in general without merit for
consideration, such as the following:

It most certainly is relevant. We could have had a hundred page
reform bill passed nearly unanimously months ago, if those claiming
to represent us had agreed to table any point on which consensus
couldn't be reached quickly. Instead, we have thousands of pages
which almost half of both Congress and the country is fighting bitterly.

In other words, we could have, months ago, had _some_ reform.
Everyone would still say it's inadequate, but everyone (almost)
would agree it's a start, and everyone (almost) would like it.

And THEN we could argue about the hard parts.

Sorry. I'm picking and choosing, not reading the entire thread.

Bad me!
