Oh dear, that means that 3 times out of 20......you're done for?
I wouldn't call that "safe sex", I'd call that suicidal sex....

Thank you VERY much for that clear outline of the definition of a Christian. I appreciate the bullet format, which makes it much easier for me understand.
I have saved that post for future study. Thanks again!

And CM, I'm afraid you were still unsound in addressing HM's point on alcohol sales. He does not object to a day banning them, but when that day is based on one faith's sabbath and other sabbaths get no such treatment, he deems it unfair. I think he has a point, altho if they chose Sunday arbitrarily, he wouldn't really.

Well, one has to pick a day of rest, otherwise you end up like the French with their revolutionary calendar, a disaster of collapse and death from exhaustion. If you're going to pick a day, it might as well be on the majority's sabbath. This is neither arbitrary, nor unfair. It is pure utilitarianism and not particularly immoral in this case.

Think about how many major corporations, and how many Americans they employ, ignore the day of rest. You'd actually be hard-pressed to name national name brands that aren't open on sundays.

Er, J.A.M.? Math error. The original number is reduced by 85%, but that number was not 100.
