But you sure are quick to defend anything Liberty Athletics.

Guy made a comment that numerous people didn't like. He got called on it. I thought it was wrong, he thought it was a joke. There's nothing else to say.

So don't say anything else.

If she picks Liberty, I might stay around for a while.

Because you're making it sound like some of us are extra sensative about everyting especially when you bring up the Talladega Nights scene.

The point is - the only zealot on this board is you. I called a guy out on a comment. You call everyone if it doesn't fall in line with LA.

You're making no sense whatsoever. Are you sleep-posting?

Do you have any more Jesus jokes? Possibly one about him being gay? I'm sure someone will find it amusing.
i have one about Jesus being a crappy carpenter.

No, that's not what I was making it sound like. I was saying that a lot of people on here are ultra sensitive about stuff like this and you have to know your audience before you make a joke like that.

You call it ultra sensative, I call it too many people being numb to right and wrong. You defend a guy making a really bad and, in my view, very inappropriate comment, and I defend what I believe is right. I guess we all pick and choose what we think is important.

Can you make it blatant so that SJ knows what inferences you're making?

I never once said he was right or wrong with the joke. I laughed at it, but that doesn't mean I endorsed it as being right or wrong. It was probably over the line. I still laughed. I never defended him. The closest I came to defending him was saying that everyone assumed what he meant was sexual and that was just pointing out the truth of implied humor, not defending him.

A joke about an erection, resurrection, Jesus and blond bombshell diva aimed at mixed sex audience with a largely religious base - given by a newly married person. Can't see where that would ever go over well.

The joke was mildly amusing, but it was also crass. However, being crass is not the same level as being blasphemous. This joke was not blasphemous according to the basic understanding of blasphemy as it is explained in Theology class.

Oh you guys. Stop pretending you remember the definition of blasphemy as taught in Theology. Everybody knows you're just looking it up.

Fair enough. That's not what I got when I read it - but I can see what your saying.
