Please..could anyone look up what the bible says about gluttony?? Perhaps we should fax Maggie that verse?? SERIOUSLY!!! I hope that there is reincarnation and all of these evil creeps come back as gay people in THIS society. I would LOVE to see how they deal with their fellow homophobes. (I was going to say that I wanted to be a homophobe in the next life taunting them but I could never do that..it is so un-Christian!) Hey! Congrats on your wedding! We are still waiting..20 years together. :( Hey Tre…AND!!!! Please..could anyone look up what the bible says about gluttony?? Perhaps we should fax Maggie that verse??
