    That is a bizarre characterization. I would think the folks here trend towardds the anti-Pharisee if anything. "Mullahs" = Pharissee IMO.

      When a true genius appears, you can know him by this sign: that all the dunces are in a confederacy against him.

        He understands neither intellectuals, nor pharisees. Actually, intellectuals in the church are often mystics of one sort or another.

        We all trust our own unorthodoxies.

          Good hell, my mom is a total mystic. Having spent the weekend with her, I'm reminded again of how mystical her genealogical experiences are. "In This Very Room" and all that.

            Meh. This guy's a known quantity in the bloggernacle. With a bit of prodding, I bet you could get him to come out and say Jesus himself was a Pharisee.

              I agree. Almost all of you are very pharaisetical. I feel bad for you. Plus, let's be honest, most of you don't even hold very important callings. Sorry, just being honest.

                  I hope at least some of you are wearing a white shirt while posting in this thread.
