"For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son."

ASTERISK:  Except for the gays, the Jews, the Muslims, and welfare mothers.


Jesus said, "Love thy neighbor, and thy enemy, too."

ASTERISK:  Except for the blacks, the prisoners, and those pesky panhandlers.


"Blessed are the meek and the humble."

ASTERISK:  Except for the homeless, the unbathed, and the drivers of economy cars.


"Forgive them, Father, for they know not what they do."

ASTERISK:  Especially the preachers, the judges, and those nasty elected officials.
