yep, carrot and the stick. when the carrot fails, then that stick gets pretty fucking big....time out? no, not time out. time in pain FOREVER!!! it'd be like punishing your kids by poking them with sticks...FOREVER!!! oh, didn't study for your test? lied about not sneaking out? VERY WELL! I'm going to tie you to a wall and poke at you with molten pincers...until well after you die. Take that!
as for the King Missile song...god that cracked me up ten years ago when I came across it. Its much better listened to, in my opinion.
Hey
IL...maybe my understanding was wrong back when I was in the fold...but wouldn't that sort of attitude - the lack of compassion, the laughing at others' misfortunes, ignorance, pain, suffereing, etc - sort of put you firmly outside the group of the "saved?" I mean, wouldn't you be getting your ass fried with the rest of us, but with the rather trivial condolence of being the guy yelling "I told you so. He's a bad mother...."....while you're also roasting at the big Kenny Rogers in the sky for all eternity? Then again, as I said you seem to have that Old Testament vibe going on, so maybe not so much. Regardless, best of luck. I guess we'll all find out one day
