How long did this take you?

Jill spent $3 less than 3/5 of her money on math books, and $3 more than 3/4 of her remaining money on other books. She still had $3 left. How much did she start with?

No he doesn't. He loves the sinners more than the goody goodies. ;)

"Bear False Witness"...? Umm, Lizzy? That TOTALLY just means in court.

What higher court is there than the Heavenly Court, presided over by THE Chief of Justice???

Stop. Look around. Does that seem like heaven to you?

Also, my whole point is that so long as you're not in court, lying's not a sin. Jesus just happens to hate it. And you. For lying.

Rough deal.

If we are only going to be talking about things we can see here around us, then stop, look around, and tell me: Do you see Jesus? No? O.K. then leave him out of this.

Like you said, I'm not in a court, anyhow.

EXACTLY my point. You're not in court. And thus... a Liar.

A big fat liar with your pants down in flames.

Take that disclaimer to court if you want.
