As to separation of church and state... absolutely. Including prohibiting government from terrorizing and discriminating against religious people. Keep government out of everything except government.

Absolute agreement on Keeping ...[text shortened]... siness. All the state wants is money. Let them rob their citizenry. Leave business alone. <grin>

And all business wants is your money. Which is the correct sentiment for business.

I feel another famous old saying coming on...

&quot;Greed is the essence of all things worth having. If you don't lust for it, it must be nothing.&quot;

Greed is the key to all human transactions. Because we all share the trait and none of us fear it. To admit that we are afraid of greed is to disavow our manhood, as it were.

SVW spends a most uncomfortable and "poignent" minute... envisioning a large body, swollen and puffed -- which explodes because it couldn't happen. And wonders the true consequences of "living with it".

Decides that it is a real good thing that it happens.

Oh well. Shudder. Back to the other dream...

Well not an easy one to reply to........Are you being really really clever or not?

Well... if the vision of a body bloating and exploding because &quot;s*it doesn't happen&quot; is funny... I was trying to be clever.

Didn't work, huh?

Oh well. Sorry. I have these terrible visions. Can't help it.
