Snotty children are another matter. I have two of them. Always sick, those two. :-/
Snotty? Did you just call your children "snotty"?

The nerve of some people...

No, no, no. First of all, fruitcake is one name, not names(plural). Second, fruitcake is a term of endearment from me. It's my "nice" way of describing someone who holds to heretical theology. I prefer :fruitcake: instead of calling someone a heretic. Especially in this Christmas season. :mrgreen:

And btw, I have a pair of big boy pants that I wear when I log on to this forum. It's my protection against all the tears I'd cry from all the insults I get here.

I think the big boy pants are unisex, so maybe you could get a pair.

I'm soooooo sorry! I guess I'm lacking fruit. I better go find the salvation I just lost.

haha, thats cute. i think you may have to get your big boy pants out of the wad you have them in. i dont need boy pants, my women ones fit rather nicely. but it isnt me that you were calling fruitcake, so no real need for them. and, btw, what is your definiton of "heretical" theology?

Ah, Ricko - that boy's a charmer with the ladies, LOL. Now, he'll merely order them back into the kitchen - and they'll absolutely LOVE it. "Ooh, Rickie, you're so naughty!" They protest, but really, they dig a bad boy! Just ask Nessa! Word is that he actually stocks up on fruitcake this time of year - maybe he ate too much and is just a little cranky? y:-? Send him a samwich and he'll be good to go! :lol:

Seriously, though, that fruitcake smilie is sometimes appropriate for irrational posts and thinking. It effectively replaces a lot of words someone would merely ignore. But cake - now that gets their attention.

Jenna,

Heresy, as far as theology, is anything that is at odds with my beliefs.

Seriously though, heresy is:
belief or opinion contrary to orthodox religious (especially Christian) doctrine.

I never understood why we ought not call people names. I mean, isn't "Hey Rick" a lot better than "Hey, you with the funny nose"? I call my kids names every day -- Elly and Charlotte (or sometimes Charlie, Chuck, or Chuckles -- when Charlotte is Chuckles, Elly is usually Giggles). I don't call my wife names, though. I know better than that. With her, it's either "Love," "Dear," "Baby," or very often just "Master." 8-}2 y:D

And that, brothers and sisters, is the kind of foolishness you get people who insist on denying biblical theism. A good illustration of any as the length people will go to avoid acknowledging basic truths.

i figured as much, that anything heretic would be something against what you believe. in that case i better not say any more, or you might try to burn me at the stake. :P

Jenna, I was serious with my comments. Where did I call a name other than Sir? And the point I made I believe is very relevant. There are stupid questions, and I believe the ones I asked at the end of my own post are just as stupid as the fruits of the Trinity question.

My wife has a very clean mouth. The worst word that I usually hear her say, is "freakin".

So, I'll never forget the time she got really mad at me, and called me a "little $hit".

I hope you know I was joking about saying that heresy is anything that is at odds with what I believe.

And, I'd only burn you at the stake, after you make me a sammich.
