      <![CDATA[@11 "I always use condoms for anal"<br>
<br>
...and that's where you're wrong.<br>
<br>
See, God hates condoms, because they make it harder for you to feel the Holy Spirit inside of you, or something; praise Jesus!<br>
<br>
The existence of butt babies, is what makes saddlebacking acceptable, as it is sex that is open to procreation, as God intended, read Genesis if you don't follow.<br>
<br>
In short, Jesus loves you, but you're going to hell. God bless.

      <![CDATA[@ 9 - You're right, I haven't kept up with the most recent developments in Republican Gynecology. And am I ever so glad I didn't. <br />
<br />
But since I always use condoms for anal, those microscopic unfertilized dead babies didn't get to my brain, and it's still functioning, which probably explains why I haven't bothered keeping up. <br />
<br />
And just now I realize why all Republicans are so challenged in every way: all those closet cases and purity-minded girls never learned about safe sex, and it did get to their brains...

      <![CDATA[I'm still trying to figure out what "identity in Christ" is supposed to mean.  If it was supposed to mean "Christianity," then I suppose that's a (milquetoast) descriptive of a person.  Otherwise, it sounds like individuality through conformity or something.<br />
<br />
I was raised Southern Baptist, and I frequently see a lot of my religious friends and family post these bizarre religious platitudes on Facebook, tinging the most mundane things with Christian rhetoric, i.e., "I am so blessed by Christ that my husband makes great chocolate chip cookies.  Look at this Bible verse."  It's becoming worse and worse, too.  My sister, who is trained to be a missionary, is perhaps the least bad religious person about this.  I mean, she'll say something religious, but it's always in some sort of reasonable context.  The others?  It's like they have to shake their tiny fists at the oncoming secular doom.
