Smite is a funny word though, it sounds funny and it can mean completely oppsite things. (For those of you who only see it as a negative)

Quibbles about definitions mean little when you're the smitee.


Yeah I'm sure it is a lot more satisfying when you imagine the smiter to be your secret friend whose ear you constantly have.

Who just happens to want to smite all of the people that disagree with you.

I'm starting to get this whole "religion" thing now.

Plus direct access to God is a big plus especially in answering you 'good' people.

Nice. (not sarcasm)

Sure showed us! (sarcasm)

Do you really actually consider your response to commentary here to be divinely inspired?

I like the way I always know someone is watching me, even when I'm wanking or burying children alive.
