No brain no pain. Only goes to show that his "time's up" wasn't quick enough.

Yep, and only in Texas would they name a prison psychiatric facility the 'Jester Unit'. :costumes:

not entirely. although it is partly metaphor, it is partly literal as well. Jesus clarifies his intention at the end of 18:8 AND 18:9

from mathew 18:

6 “Whoever causes one of these little ones who believe in Me to sin, it would be better for him if a millstone were hung around his neck, and he were drowned in the depth of the sea. 7 Woe to the world because of offenses! For offenses must come, but woe to that man by whom the offense comes!
8 “If your hand or foot causes you to sin, cut it off and cast it from you. It is better for you to enter into life lame or maimed, rather than having two hands or two feet, to be cast into the everlasting fire. 9 And if your eye causes you to sin, pluck it out and cast it from you. It is better for you to enter into life with one eye, rather than having two eyes, to be cast into hell fire.


:focus:
however, i don't think that is what the crazy guy was doing. i think he was just crazy.
