    No offense, but I'm not sure if you answered my question
    "Discipleship is not a spectator sport. We cannot expect to experience the blessing of faith by standing inactive on the sidelines any more than we can experience the benefits of health by sitting on a sofa watching sporting events on television and giving advice to the athletes. And yet for some, “spectator discipleship” is a preferred if not primary way of worshipping." -Pres. Uchtdorf

      Probably not. But your question made me go off on a tangent...
      "...you pointy-headed autopsy nerd. Do you think it's possible for you to post without using words like "hilarious," "absurd," "canard," and "truther"? Your bare assertions do not make it so. Maybe your reasoning is too stunted and your vocabulary is too limited to go without these epithets."

          Yes, but I live in a bubble so my experience is anecdotal.

              What is a RINO? Sounds kinda cool, at least compared to conservative or liberal.

                  A RINO is republican in name only. It is kind of the political equivalent of an ALUF.

                      Romney’s Consideration of Candidacy Is Closely Tied to His Faith, Allies Say

                      A prominent Republican delivered a direct request to Mitt Romney not long ago: He should make a third run for the presidency, not for vanity or redemption, but to answer a higher calling from his faith.
