Why am I reminded of the W.C. Fields line, "It was a woman who drove me to drink and I forgot to thank her."
Your wonderful sense of whimsy allows you to make grave points without preaching. |

| It's what I call "drive-by religion." You act like an a**hole all week long, then pop into the confessional booth on Sunday to get "clean again", then it's back out into the world carrying on like a complete wanker taking no responsibility for your own actions. Great snide little slap in the face poem to those who do this. |

HOW RIGHT YOU ARE...WHEN ONE IS AWARE OF THE FACT THAT THEY ARE HURTING OTHERS AND BUT DOESN'T TRY TO DO SOMETHING ABOUT IT... INSTEAD...FINDS EXCUSES FOR NEGATIVE ACTIONS, THEN THEY REALLY ARE 'CHOOSING' NOT TO CHANGE. THANKS FOR SHARING AND BLESSINGS.

Yep Lori
I reckon there is a devil in each and every one of us, and we must always be extra vigilant to keep him chained up where he belongs.
I liked the symbiosim with you and the dog and spouse.

Thought provoking, Lori - agree with Paul. If Jesus is love, the devil is the exact opposite, who tempts us to act ugly - and we, being human, usually follow in his footsteps. JMO, FWIW ... well done.
