Or to take it further, how many are completely innocent of the crime for which they were charged and convicted? Quite a few, actually.

Are these bibles considered to be the property of the correctional institute, or the prisoner? If it were mine I would make a point of using it for asswipe.

Oh no; don't do that! Bible pages are quite thin and light, and make excellent cigarette papers. And a little tobacco helps to neutralize the poisons in the text.

I'll just say that this yahoo running the jail needs a swift kick. Even in jail, there are some rights that they have.

I'll even go so far as to say that this is a blatant attack on the seperation of church and state.

As for the victims in NC, I've donated blood.

I told them I prayed for them but I didn't. I'm expecting similar results.

Thanks Val. I'm going down to the church in Oxford this morning to give what cash I can.
