As I've already posted here, Jay, my evasive little weasel, Jesus also had nothing but praise for the poor woman who contributed only two copper coins, which turned out to be all she had. You, on the other hand, with your "nothing but the bottom line" attitude, have basically told Jesus he's full of shit. My, but aren't we the little hypocrite, quoting Jesus only when it suits our needs?

Jesus also admonishes his followers (Matthew 6:5-6): "And when thou prayest, thou shalt not be as the hypocrites are: for they love to pray standing in the synagogues and in the corners of the streets, that they may be seen of men. Verily I say unto you, They have their reward. But thou, when thou prayest, enter into thy closet, and when thou hast shut thy door, pray to thy Father which is in secret and thy Father which seeth in secret shall reward thee openly."

So when can we expect you and your Bible-believing followers to shut the fuck up and stop annoying the crap out of the rest of us with your sanctimonious, "look at me" worship? Yeah, I thought as much.
