It seems Pope Francis needs to brush up on his Tertullian!

It has been reported (in The ChristLast Media, I must note) that the current Pope does not like the phrase "lead us not into temptation...

"Let no freedom be allowed to novelty, because it is not fitting that any addition should be made to antiquity. Let not the clear faith and belief of our forefathers be fouled by any muddy admixture." -- Pope Sixtus III

Kansas City Star: Driver’s blood alcohol level off the charts

Lithuanian police were so astonished by a breath test that registered 18 times the legal alcohol limit, they thought their device must be broken.

It wasn’t.

Police said Tuesday that Vidmantas Sungaila, 41, registered 7.27 grams per liter of alcohol in his blood repeatedly on different devices after he was pulled over Saturday for driving his truck down the center of a two-lane highway 60 miles from the capital, Vilnius.

Lithuania’s legal limit is 0.4 grams per liter.

“This guy should have been lying dead, but he was still driving,” said Saulius Skvernelis, director of the national police traffic control service.

“He was of high spirits and grinning the whole time he was questioned.”

Anything above 3.5 grams per liter of alcohol in the blood is lethal for most people, medical experts say.

Sungaila, who was slapped with a $1,110 fine and the loss of his license for up to three years, told police that he had been drinking the night before and tried to freshen up by downing a pint of beer for breakfast.

Last year, 760 persons died in traffic accidents in the country of 3.5 million residents. Most were alcohol-related.

I don't know if he's related to Darius Songaila. In Lithuania, it might be as common as Smith.

First of all, the word is SEX, not GENDER. If you are ever tempted to use the word GENDER, don't. The word is SEX! SEX! SEX! SEX! For example: "My sex is male." is correct. "My gender is male." means nothing. Look it up. What kind of sick neo-Puritan nonsense is this? Idiot left-fascists, get your blood-soaked paws off the English language. Hence I am choosing "male" under protest.
