Okay what exactly is a quince? I suspect this is like a snipe.

1. This is the thing that grinds me

Free speech allows believers to dominate the airwaves and media. That is fine and good. Its their right and I will defend them. But when they complain that their first ammendment rights are being violated because they cannot impose their beliefs in government functions I just gotta say :wtf: .

[ProdigalJunkMail]

11. ummmm.....

Hey Az,

Not sure what your problem is here...why would a special on foods mentioned in literature be a problem? I don't think this rises to the level of indoctrination :-) I would like to see if there is a special scheduled in the future on the miracle foods of the atheist...buddhist...wiccan...you get the picture :-)

MMMMMmmmmm ... quince...

16. Its no problem

As I said, I defend the practice. Its their right to voice their opinions. My grind is when they complain about their 1st ammendment rights being violated when they can't use the government to force their positions.

I mean to say, they have the freedom to speak their mind in all the world. They just cannot use the government as their pulpit.

2. A quince is a fruit.

Sort of a hard apple. Asian, I believe.

Works well in preserves, I hear.

[underpants]

5. I googled QUINCE and got these images

I think it is the latter. Asian? Hmmm in the Bible? Hmmmm

[GOPisEvil]

6. Well...central Asia...

There was trading going on. :-)

[underpants]

8. Money changing?

:scared:

[GOPisEvil]

9. barter, I'm sure

:D

13. the quince is supposedly the fruit

that Eve took at the suggestion of the serpent in the garden...I have yet to be able to find a reference to the actual fruit but quince is the one that it is suggested to be. All vegetation was supposedly in the garden...asian or no

15. Eve was framed

Sorry that is a bumpersticker I have seen.


Really? they would eat that? That seems a bit strange.

[flamingyouth]

18. Mmmm - quinces are great

They smell, well, divine! :evilgrin:

[supernova]

23. Don't you cook quinces?

before you use them? I've hear the fresh ones are bitter.

I've eaten quince jelly and thought it was nice. :thumbsup:

[BiggJawn]

32. You either have to cook 'em or have the jaws of a Pit Bull....

They smell wonderful, have a great flavour, but they are as HARD AS A ROCK!

We had a Quince tree on the farm, and my Bro and I, Seeings how Sibs Will Be Sibs, discovered they were the ultimate in throwing weapons.

3. McDonald's Filet of Fish sandwich...

that loaves and fishes thing,ya know;)

[BigMcLargehuge]

4. Take one jug of pure well water, hand to Messiah...

wait a few seconds, then enjoy a wonderful vintage Zinfandel. Best served at weddings...

[underpants]

7. Man imagine hanging with Jesus

You wouldn't have even NEEDED a fake ID.

[GOPisEvil]

10. Sure, that works if you have a Messiah around.

But, at last report, he's been dead for close to 2000 years. ;-)

[BigMcLargehuge]

17. I think you can order one from "The Pampered Chef"

it's in the catalog right near their Springform pans.

[GOPisEvil]

20. It wouldn't surprise me.

Pampered indeed! :D

[BigMcLargehuge]

21. maybe Ron Popeil has one on his design desk

the Messiah-O-Matic, combination water to wine converter and smokeless ashtray/pasta maker.

[GOPisEvil]

22. OK - that is funny!

One more box checked off on the "straight to hell" checklist, but it was worth it. ;-)

[supernova]

24. LOL!

funny! :D

[Roaming]

25. On the contrary, he's been ALIVE for 2000 years--remember Easter?

[GOPisEvil]

26. He ascended into Heaven.

I heard.

[Roaming]

27. Yes! And is still very much alive.

[GOPisEvil]

29. I'm not having this debate with you.

I don't particularly feel up to theology today.

[Roaming]

30. That's OK, neither am I :-)

[matcom]

12. EXCELLENT!

i missed the first 'deglazing Jesus' episode and i don't have TIVO x(

[underpants]

14. Don't miss the "Manna from Heaven" episode

This is Marc Summers waiting for the appetizer


For the main course he stands outside holding a bucket....which sounds boring...and is.

[DinahMoeHum]

19. I'm VERY surprised they don't include "Scripture Cake"

That is a dessert cake very popular in the South. Most Southern cookbooks have a recipe for it. It includes items such as flour, eggs, leavening, salt, figs, raisins, dates, etc.

The key to this recipe is that each item is mentioned by the Biblical scripture where you find the food item.

Here is one such recipe. Supposedly, this is the recipe favored by Dolly Madison, wife of James Madison, POTUS:

28. how 'bout a wine-tasting?

wouldn't that be logical?

[m-jean03]

31. One word: Pulse.

If you want to be really Biblical, refer to all grains as pulse...
