		<description>&lt;p&gt;I&#8217;m a pastor&#8217;s kid so I grew up watching the hypocrisy.
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
Most of the Christian &#8220;leaders&#8221; that I have met in the church assume a couple of things&#8230; 1. they are entitled because everyone is supposed to give them something for nothing because people are expected to &#8220;share their talents&#8221; - in other words they shouldn&#8217;t have to pay for anything and 2. The rules never apply to them.
&lt;/p&gt;

		<description>&lt;p&gt;Favorite bumper sticker, EVER
&lt;br /&gt;
In that glittery large font:
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
&#8220;Jesus loves you but everyone still thinks you&#8217;re an asshole&#8221;
&lt;/p&gt;

		<description>&lt;p&gt;There are 3 magnets on my fridge that I think you might like:
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
&#8220;Jesus would smack the shit out of you&#8221;
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
&#8220;Jesus loves you *some conditions may apply&#8221;
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
and finally&#8230;
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
&#8220;I&#8217;ve got nothing against Jesus; it&#8217;s his fan club that I can&#8217;t stand&#8221;
&lt;/p&gt;

		<description>&lt;p&gt;@chepooka:&#160; well, they can&#8217;t share my table.&#160; It&#8217;s full. &lt;img src=&quot;http://tenth-muse.com/ee/images/smileys/wink.gif&quot; width=&quot;19&quot; height=&quot;19&quot; alt=&quot;wink&quot; style=&quot;border:0;&quot; /&gt;
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
@amy t.: heh. I didn&#8217;t catch that! I was too busy reeling from their copypastitis.
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
You know, in hindsight, I probably didn&#8217;t need to list their URL.&#160; I feel weird about it. Should I feel weird about it? It feels unprofessional. Can my point me made without it?&#160; Probably&#8230;  but see, that&#8217;s where I have those things&#8230; what are they called? Oh yeah, &lt;i&gt;scruples&lt;/i&gt;.&#160; hehe!
&lt;/p&gt;

		<description>&lt;p&gt;I just blogged about this very thing last week or so.&#160; The hypocrisy is maddening!&#160; If you bring your faith into the conversation, it&#8217;s perfectly reasonable for people to hold you to a higher standard.&#160; Some Christians give Christians a bad name, that&#8217;s for sure.
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
Unfortunately I think a lot of people &#8220;use&#8221; this language to dupe people.&#160; I&#8217;m pretty sure a special place in hell is reserved just for them.
&lt;/p&gt;

		<description>&lt;p&gt;Too bad they don&#8217;t devote a little of their lives to proofreading.&#160; On their &#8220;About Us&#8221; page, they end with this gem&#8230;
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
&#8220;We like to do a good job because we work for the One that blesses us, not just for our clients.&#160; Thanks for stopping buy. &#8220;
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
Thanks for stopping &lt;b&gt;buy&lt;/b&gt;?&#160; Priceless.
