I can't believe you all call yourselves Christians! [:o] I am horrified at the judgmental attitudes shown here! Jesus loves everyone, and you should show more grace! Stop judging people, or you are going to end up in the hot place!
(How'd I do?)
P.S. Please do not report me to the moderators. That would also be judgmental, not to mention embarrassing. Especially since I am one.

You know...I was just thinking. If you bought too many groceries, that would be considered gluttony, hence sinful.
There should be a church commission convened to determine the correct amount of groceries that one may purchase before becoming sinful.
But doesn't Christian Capitalism say you should spend as much as possible so that other people will have your money? Aren't we obligated to waste money so that others might be enriched?

Is it a sin to try to scan your kids to see what the suggested manufacturer's retail price is?
Why do stores frown on grocery cart races in the parking lot?
What is turkey bowling, and does it involve live or frozen turkeys?

More importantly, "is" putting "random words" into "air quotes" a "sin?"
It is a "sin" to include "punctuation" in "air quotes" unless the "entire sentence" is part of the "quote".

Are "you" "sure"? I "always" get "confused" by "that" rule "of" grammar.

On "The Simpsons" when Maggie is "scanned" during the opening "credits" the "price" is $847.63. This is "based" on the "average price" of "infant-rearing" per "month" in "1989" when the show "debuted".
Grocery shopping is sinful if you spend more than 10% of your income on groceries because you would be spending more money on food than giving to God and thus honoring food more than God which would be idolatrous and I have another question: are run-on sentences sinful?
Am I sensing a pattern here? Have I stumbled into the twilight zone or have I found the secret hide-away were the moderators blow off steam?
[sm=aside.gif] Will they report me to the senior members? Should I lay low? Perhaps I'll just slink away to the produce section wearing a green shirt so that I'll blend in with the salads and read Revelations while waiting for the rapture.[sm=icon_smile_approve.gif]
