Well, what do the more regular people do at your church festivals? Do
they dance and drink a little? Festivals typically are *light*
occasions, where folks come together to sing, dance, tell stories, drink
a little wine, eat, and have fun. That's the charm of the Greek Orthodox
festival, and most of the Roman Catholic and Jewish
festivals/weddings/bar mitzvahs, et cetera, I've attended.
Your guy Jesus did some of that...he didn't, after all, change water
into grape juice at the marriage at Cana, did he? And there are many who
believe the last supper was in fact one of the seders Jews hold in
conjunction with Passover, and assuredly, if it were such a ceremony,
the liquid in the chalice was wine, not water.
I answered your question Harry. Now what does drinking and dancing at
a church bazaar have to do with feeding the poooooor?
Perhaps the bazaar is being held to raise funds for legitimate
charitable purposes, Tim, such as helping to feed those who need the
help, or to finance a medical procedure for someone who needs one, or,
well, you get the picture...or you should.
You don't sound like the "fun date" to take to a bazaar. What do you do
there?
Remember, your giving goes to non religious "organizations". Don't
pretend that your donation to the Greek festival was anything more than
an entrance fee.
With Harry's attitude about gay guys, it does beg the question "Who
was his "date" to that "greek" festival.
I wonder which pocket he wears that dark blue hanky in.
Gee, what do you think my attitude towards "gay guys" is beyond live and
let live? It's not as if I am a Republican member of Congress, hanging
out in airport bathrooms, or a Republican hater of gays, or a Republican
conservative christian hater of gays, eh?
Oh, and for your developmentally delayed seventh grade buddy, FlaJim,
who I see pooped into this thread, there is no "entrance fee" at the
Greek festival. They do sell a lot of properly cooked, homemade Greek
meals and delicacies, and there are vendors offering books, olive oil,
jewelry, CDs, et cetera.

it should cook poor jugs beneath the clever rich kiosk, whilst Marty seemingly answers them too
