You prefer the phrase “unindicted co-conspirators”?

“Hobbs, N.M. is an oil town out in No Country For Old Men country, and I lived there for 7 years after moving to the United States”

Were you an oilman @beschizza? :wink:

No, an unstoppable yet curiously principled murderer with a bad haircut.

Why would Mary weep? Her kid rose from the dead, he constantly re-appears in tacos and grilled cheese, and (despite what John Lennon thought) he’s still more popular than The Beatles, Elvis and Hendrix combined.

Oh yeah, and he saved the world from eternal damnation-- not bad for a crazy hippie. Most Jewish mothers would be proud their sons accomplished so much.

Well, at least we still have free speech in America, so we can be snarky about it without winding up threatened with prison, like this guy:

2000 years since I gave birth, and he’s still not married! What can a mother do but weep?

The Catholic Church should launch a giant probe up its butt so that it can discover exactly what it is full of.

I know that whenever I hear stories about weeping statues, saint-shaped birthmarks, and images of Jesus in one’s waffles, I sit up and reconsider the notion of the existence of some all-powerful divinity… and I come to the conclusion that this is a really lame way for any all-powerful divinity to say, “Hey! Look! I’m over here!”.

Huh, I would have guessed most of the practicing Christians there would be Calvinists.

Seeing as it’s the Catholic church, I’d be surprised if it was anything other than anal, and into a child.

It’s probably not a cerebrospinal fluid leak, like that lady with the perpetual runny nose.

I’ve wondered sometimes about a small artsy desert town as a retirement option. Then wondered about how comfortable I’d be there - or safe.
