    I have always doubted that a man who learned how to read by reading a bible was so enamored with vice in others.
    Isn’t the whole idea behind sanctification to become more Christ like? Doesn’t that mean losing our vices and gaining His virtues?
    As Paul says in Romans 16:19 we should be wise in what is good and innocent in what is evil.
    Or maybe it was just a book that he had access to and used for his own purpose.

But Before You Say That…

  • Comments that are inappropriate, rude, completely stupid, or obviously meant to bait others into a flame war may be deleted.  If that happens to you and you want to throw a tantrum about “free speech,” do it on your own blog.  Basically, if you wouldn't say it to someone's face without the shield of anonymity, don't say it here.
  • If you are a new commenter or are using a new e-mail address, your comment will go to moderation.  Even regular commenters get stuck in moderation sometimes.  Please be patient; your comment will be published as soon as I can get to it.
  • Comments that will never get published are those that are posted under the name “anonymous” and those using an obviously fake e-mail address.
