    Right, so there aren't that many of you around, is there? Of course it's a matter of opinion if even you fit the description.

      I'm not even sure where I could get sorghum. Sounds interesting, though.

        Very popular in the south - often mixed with butter in place of honey.

          Once inspiration hits it doesn't leave for a while. For me it's like those huge domino setups, knock one over and they all start to go.

            Well, in the U.S. its main use is to feed pigs and other livestock.

                Now I'm going to have to 1) find sorghum and b) make cornbread. I don't think I've ever made it before, though I'm sure I have a recipe or three for it.

                  The plant/grain, or the syrup?

                    Huffpo actually has a decent article about it...

                          I agree that not ALL evangelicals are "leaders." But there are evangelical leaders that are the contemporary versions of the Pharisees and Sadducees, and evangelical followers which are the equivalent of the people who followed and fell in line with the Pharisees and Sadducees. I'd consider the comparison quite apt.

                            I can pretty much assure you that I have not "found religion." I am, however, pointing out a fairly blatant level of hypocrisy...

                              Well- there are exceptions.

                              But they are the exceptions. Not the norm.
