Blessed are the punters, for theirs is the kingdom of Dodd. Best of luck, young man!

No fair winning the thread in the first post.

Given his roster slot, it must have felt like purgatory on The Flats

No I think he is subtly saying, "What kind of asshole öööös up a sports thread with anti-religious horse öööö?" but maybe that is just me.

That would be like randomly insulting the left's religion, global warming, in a sports thread.

Your kid only knows what you teach him. Nice brainwash.

As the brother of a priest - who has a masters in history and managed restaurants along the way before answering the call - the big moment of decision will be at his diaconate. There, prostrate on the floor, after three years in the seminary, he will be asked if he can make the full commitment to the priesthood. My brother said he has seen guys get up and walk out of the cathedral, realizing the call wasn't for them. And when they walk out, they leave the seminary.
Then again, my brother went to a seminary where there was a bar in the basement of their dorm with beer on tap for the seminarians.
It is a big commitment Grant is about to make and I applaud him for it. Pax vobiscum, sir.

Good.
I went to religious private school until high school. My parents probably invested over 100k in that, and I do not come from money. I just don't believe religion at all, but still celebrate the holidays for the 'tradition' of it. My wife and I share the same beliefs. My daughter goes to a reform, but synagogue, pre-school. We go to synagogue with my daughter; treat it mostly as a social thing for us, but want our daughter immersed in the culture. She can decide what she wants to believe in the same way my wife and I did. My wife comes from a family of holocaust survivors.
Regarding the liberal bashing, I'm conservative, so you can bash the left all you want.

Enjoy your high horse though.

. . . blah blah blah me me me . . . family of "holocaust" survivors.

I heard "quotations" are funny now, so I made your post more funny with them.
