Just don't eat them together or off of the same plate.

Also (harking waaaaaay back to oreo theology), they had better be real Oreos and not Hydrox as imitation Oreos are an abomination and false idols.

Good grief! It's a good thing I went grocery shopping last night before scanning parts of this thread! Maybe I should take my trusty gun and lay in wait for the neighborhood moose to walk by. That would take of meat for a year (I just need to be sure to dispose of the remains before the bears come out of hibernation - the local gendarmes of the police and Fish & Game types come by).

So I would not sin by going to the grocery store, I would not sin because I would be dressed in white to blend in with the snow and not be wearing a blue shirt, and I would shoot the moose within walking distance of home so I won't have to drive by a gas station.

Oh, I know better than to allow any abomination that is not Oreos in my presence. I'm not an animal you know!

But would hanging the antlers over your fireplace be a sin?

Moving this thread to Looney Tunes Theology.




(I know I can't, but I've always wanted to say something like that)

Is Moderator Envy a sin?

Actually, its in the right folder, looney toones is unwritten.

Is impersonating a moderator like impersonating a police officer?

It is only a sin to yell hubba hubba to a cashier if you are noticed.

Is it a sin to go to a Super Wallyworld instead of the grocery store?

I confess.

I went to the grocery store. I passed by a few gas stations, but didn't stop in. (I did that the last time I was out in the car.)

I wore a red shirt.

So is it a sin to throw gas coupons away (the ones that are printed at the bottom of grocery receipts)?

It's about equivalent to buying your groceries at a gas station.

Just don't let PETA catch you. If you use all the parts of an animal it's not sin so mounting the antlers and hanging it to dry towels on would make it less-than-sin, allbeit a bit tacky.

Isn't "waste not want not" in the scriptures?

No, you're thinking of "Waste not, waist size up a lot".

Too much exposure is definitely a sin...

...especially while grocery shopping.

Only if you end up having to multiply by the number of gas stations you drove by to get the antlers, then add the combined ages of your children, and divide by the square root of zero. Then it's a big enough sin to create a black hole.

There aren't as many gas stations up north, though. So that would certainly help keep the sinning down by quite a bit, don't you think?

My wife thinks so.
