I have noticed that most folks here are too reticent to say anything bad about Obama.

Surely you mean he is the POTUS. (And what did my grandma say about folks who lived in glass houses throwing stones?)

That they should not undress in the Living Room?
While throwing stones? That is an interesting image. Perhaps they shouldn't hurl themselves through the big picture window in the living room while undressing.

Stones? Sure, I've got 'em, but I tend not to throw them too far from home. Now for the sheep in their little glass pastures ...

I am not naturally reticent, but have been reluctant to enter this debate. However, after mature penumbration on the topic of the propulsion of lapidę, I refer you to John 8:7

Indeed, many of us don't - but the bibke - along with many other wotks of philosophy - can give us wisdom, so long as we are a bit selective!

BTW, if you don't have your Gideon bible handy, John 8:7 is the bit about "he who casts the first stone ..."
(But you guessed that, anyway!)

Yes, I did, especially about the "first stone". Hence my
comment. But I don't expect any kind of reply.
Those who keep casting are probably like those who piled their
cloaks at the feet of a man named Saul, in Acts.

You two get a room. I'm not the one who came storming in all a-bustle. And, while we're flinging around chapter and verse: how's about Matthew VII:1ff.

What he said. And mine was just a question about glass houses.
Conversations go awry on this site all the time.

What I said. I was the one who brought up glass houses and brick throwing, although it was posed as a rhetorical questions. Anyway, carry on.

Righto. But I responded about undressing in the living room?
Just an old joke: dates from the 1950's at least. Not meant
to be hurtful.

Ah, I see. Not familiar with it. Perhaps a bit before my time.

When someone was about to say "People who live in glass houses.."
someone else would quickly respond "should not undress in the
living room". No harm no foul.

I've noticed that myself from time to time. Born at war's end.
Each grade number corresponded with the year in the fifties.
lst in 51, and so forth.

Then maybe we should be inventing new ones here?

Most interesting. Seems the problem continues.
Edit: I had a half dozen blank posts when I opened this
one, and the above was my comment. Posting it, they
all disappeared.
