Sad to think Salome is with Ayn Rand right now while Greg's little Cherubims pour hot oil on them in preparation for their eternal torment. They're in good company with the innocents slaughtered by Greg's buddies at PEOR because obviously they were not innocent either.

I honestly admire Salome's talent and ability in silencing a wild lice ridden desert mullah who affronted the good dignity of her and her mother.

St. Augustine said:

"Thus was done to death the greatest "amongst them that are born of women", the prize awarded to a dancing girl, the toll exacted for an oath rashly taken and criminally kept."

St. Augustine appears to contradict himself and says:

"For, were it not good that evil things should also exist, the omnipotent God would almost certainly not allow evil to be, since beyond doubt it is just as easy for Him not to allow what He does not will, as for Him to do what He will."

It is clear St. Augustine was not brilliant.
