Do you mean the Anti-Christ?

Or the Aunty-Christ? (Cause I know a couple who might qualify.)

In either case, the idea that the earthly Church may not exactly measure up to Godly ideals is not particularly original, and not particularly unique to the Christian religion.

Finally, through no fault of yours (mostly), this thread has officially pushed me over the edge.

No, it's the Christ-shaped ice cream bar that was dropped on the sidewalk.

You do know that the word "if" only has one "f", right?

"Iff" means "if and only if". Knowing this makes Perry5's posts mildly (very mildly) amusing.

I appreciate the info HM. I seriously doubt he intends it to mean that though.

That's what provides the mild amusement.

I'm detecting some anti-Christian posts by Perry. It would help if he sounded intelligible in any of his arguments.
