Samuel Johnson was wrong.

He said that "Patriotism is the last refuge of a scoundrel."

That's the second-to-last refuge. When even patriotism doesn't work anymore, the scoundrel's last resort is piety.

You are absolutely right! I've found the same to be true!

I just love it when these hypocrites are outed.

I've noticed over the years that if a religious zealot preaches until he's blue in the face against homosexuality. He's the very one who has a gay lover on the side, or is paying male prostitutes to be with him. I've seen it too many times for it to be a coincidence. I don't understand their thinking, but there's got to be a psychological reason they do it.

Exactly. He doth protest too much. One of my big problems with religion growing up, was seeing the people in church on Sunday being righteous, and then out whoring around during the week.

Of course he was. Look at how many fall from grace and cry for forgiveness. And then there is many more who don't.

So his infidelity is our fault?
