And the other monk said, "No, YOU'RE the one still carrying her." And
the monk said "No, YOU are!" And the other monk said, "Nuh uh, it is
you!" And the monk said "No sir it most certainly is not me." And
the other monk said "It most certainly is!" And the monk said "You
are an idiot." And the other monk said "You take that back!" And the
monk said "No I will not take it back, idiot." And the other monk
said "You will regret this!" And the monk said "Oh I am so scared."
And the other monk said, "You'd better be scared!" And the monk said
" Oh what are you gonna do." And the other monk said, "You'll see
what I am gonna do, you'll see." And the monk said "Well I will just
start holding my breath right now for that to happen." And the other
monk said "You go right ahead it will save me the trouble." And the
monk said, "Idiot." And the other monk said "All right that is it,
come on!" And the monk said "Oh buzz off little man." And the other
monk said "I have had it. This is it. This is where you go down."
And the monk said, " Okay, look, I guess I was a little harsh there,
just calm down." And the other monk said, "I am sick of you telling me
what to do, you take off that robe because I am going to pound you."
And the monk said "Okay if that is the way you want it okay." And he
took off his robe and they both laid into each other like nobody's
business until the other monk finally got the advantage and laid the
monk out with a good solid punch and then he picked up a big rock and
lifted it over his head and brought it down on the monk's head and
then he did it again and again until it was just a horrible mess and
he threw the rock to one side and went over and puked in a bush and
then after a while he put his robe on and took the other monk's stuff
and said, "Now who's the smart guy." And then he left.

(All the rest of it is pretty much the same until one
of them hits the other one in the nuts *just so*, and
he keels over dead. Then the winner goes to back to
the Temple and defeats ALL THE OTHER MONKS AT ONCE,
EXCEPT ONE, who goes out into the mountains to learn
the SECRET STYLE of Kung-Fu that will allow him to
defeat the monk who just wiped out the other monks.
But ONLY after doing a bunch of exercises like breaking
crockery, poking at a tree and punching holes in rice
paper with his fingertips.)

See, that's just what I was saying about this monk story and how
maddeningly it says, "You're like being way too uptight over nothing,
man, so you must be like stupid." When the Lord said it to me, it
struck me as being true in my particular case that particular time, and
I was glad He had helped calm me down. Also I thought it a cute story
which I should remember, to spring on somebody when I wanted to PISS
THEM OFF.

Yep. See, you can carry on a dispute as long as you like, making the
other person think you are having an equal exchange and then pop this
out saying, "See, I am the brilliant elder monk and you are the dopey
novice so you have to stop arguing with me right now because I am
morally superior and you don't want to keep embarrassing yourself by
questioning that." People who use scriptures to correct and educate
OTHER people haven't learned anything from them themselves. It's how
small minds make themselves feel big - a total waste of the material.

When someone's "final comment" on an issue spreads over two days and
several different threads, then it is my duty to tell them this parable
if I have any respect for them at all.

A fool quoting scripture is like a monkey playing a fiddle. It
doesn't make the fool wise or the monkey a musician, but it sure makes
the bystanders cringe.

If someone uses spiritual literature to DEFEAT people, to put them
down or shut them up, it would be better for them to BURN holy books
than to read them.

It's totally sad that you have to see it as an attack when people try to
gently point out to you the fact that you are obviously tormenting
yourself with guilt and that you should either just give the damn money
back or else take your own advice and stop going on and on about it! I
don't need to attack you -- if I want to see you suffer, all I have to
do is sit back and watch you post over and over how you DON'T CARE that
you know who that money belongs to because you're a TOUGH, CYNICAL GUY
and you are DONE talking about it, so everyone ELSE should just SHUT UP!
AGAIN!

But, since you really do seem to be excessively suffering now, and you
seem unable to really make a "final comment", I will have mercy. I will
now stop talking about this forever.

Hey, I think we should show at least some small regard for ANY
SubGenius who makes it to TV, even via the back door. Just consider
what a FULLY drunken one might achieve.

Its not like that flapping, leather-winged, phosphor-dot abortion
"Friends" is doing anything for America. I saw an episode dubbed for
the Swedish market and vomited until I saw God as a pimply teen-ager.
I fail to see how inebrated drunken hags could do much worse.

All of this jousting is just whitewash for the central pivot we've
