There is no greater joy that can be recognized in this or the next life, than knowing and accepting Jesus as one's Lord and Savior of sin, condemnation, and eternal suffering and damnation.

(Where else but San Francisco – where The Boy Scouts are all but outlawed, and "his" and "hers" school restrooms are being eliminated because they offend (or confuse) two percent of the school population.)
