1. He may recover
Perhaps it's just a warning.

I don't wish ill on anyone. That task belongs to Karma.

15. Maybe it is
or maybe it's a wake-up call.

Either way I doubt he'll get the message. People like that rarely do.

Like your user name :)

16. Thanks madmax!
Love yours too!
Reminds me of the time ole Melvin G. was eye-candy in leather pants,
enough to cause even this femme dyke to notice! :D

*sigh* So long, so disappointingly --in many more ways than one-- loong ago


As for a 'wake up call', sadly I think that the love of money is too entrenched for him to ever wake up. He'll NEVER stay rich being a liberal pastor, at least not near as rich as the fundies make him :/

2. Sounds like he will be ok and maybe
take better care next time he works in his garden. I'm not sure I'll "Pray my sight loss is restored." or for his sight to be restored. He has enough sheep to do his praying for either one.

7. July 26th: Kay Warren: Rick Has Almost Recovered
Edited on Mon Aug-09-10 05:42 PM by RamboLiberal
Kay Warren said today that her husband Rick Warren has almost recovered from his eye injury. She said that he is able to drive and hasn't been in pain since Friday. "His eyes are just a little fuzzy," she said.

Last week, Rick was pruning in his garden when he got sap from a plant in his eyes. He had posted some updates on Twitter but has not resumed posting updates.

"The amount of agony was so extreme that I could not believe his eyes were not destroyed," Kay said on the phone. "He’s definitely better and almost completely back to normal."

Guess God is a forgiving God - and doesn't hurt to have good healthcare & doctors.

10. God didn't smite him for long:
"...Warren could not open his eyes on Monday, he was seeing well enough Thursday to send the Tweet himself"

12. I think it may be a good idea to have him
plug in Cheney's pump for the nightly recharge. :evilgrin:

14. I misread it as "Pastor Rick Warren blinded by poisonous rant, expected to recover."

18. Now if Rick really believes what the Word of God says
then he would think God might be trying to get his attention, kinda like Saul on the highway to Damascus.


And what was Saul intending to do once he got there? Persecute some folks he didn't like.

Take the hint, pRicky. Make it your new "purpose driven" mission to stop the hate.
