This is, in fact, referred to as the 'most important' commandment, above all others. But, you all half-ass that, at best, because you're too concerned about the utterly selfish concerns of being rewarded with mansions in heaven and life everlasting. God doesn't come across as someone who is impressed with the mere lip service virtually every one of his followers offer, and that's one reason why none of you are going to heaven any more than I am.
Damn straight! And this has been argument about a lot of Catholics and Christians (not John V.) for years!!
We need people like you to get the word out Ryan! I could probably get a slot for you for next Sunday's sermon!
