    ?
    what is ill advised about a church saying "we take all in" ?

    it’s an election with no Democrats, in one of the whitest states in the union, where rich candidates pay $35 for your votes. Or, as Republicans call it, their vision for the future.

    Oh no, it is "heavan".

    I did not want to co-opt the Christian term.

    I created my own word to avoid stepping on the toes of those who are married to their Christian God.

    Thanks for your understanding.
    Aren't we in the trust tree, thingey?

    Ah.

    You are indeed welcome.

    I will find you there afterward, be it one or the other-of that I am confident.

    They are free to do so, though I must say this one was a first for me.

    I don't see an upside to the practice.

    i didn't say i objected in the first place, , i just said i find it sad that it needed to be made at all.

    However nice dodge but we/I would like to know what you found "ill-advised" about it

    I don't even know what to make of that really, I have never ever seen anything like that in the UK though.

    I can't really see any good of it though, I don't see religion as a product you need to 'sell' to someone

    Danb.
    We have many purely religion based tv stations here so adverts aren't really needed however this one was directed at groups that feel excluded from churches.


    What was that song that had the lines "God's going to buy me a salelite" ?
