Pa Pierre,
 
Thank you for expressing your your concern at my seeming irreverence toward  
Jesus. I present the full sentence here for you again: [I ask him to declare a 
 day of mourning for the fires in California and he gives us a day of what  
for baby Yahya????Jesus friggin Christ. I'm calling state house on monday and  
somebody  better pick-up. Holiday my foot."

Indeed I express similar awe and confoundment (not irreverence) by  saying 
Muhammad friggin Muhammad, Jesus friggin Muhammad, etc. I deliberately DO  NOT 
SAY Freaking, not that the word freak is necessarily irreverent, but  
association of freak with anyone (not just jesus or Muhammad) would tantamount  to 
qualification of their person. I haven't met either. And because my  disposition 
usually is expression of utter surprise and awe, in REVERENCE.
 
I am terribly sorry you found irreverence in Friggin I presume. It is a  term 
of endearment for me. Sort of like saying Pa Friggin Pierre. or Haruna  
Friggin Darbo. I imagine if friggin would rally the CHristian Ummah and the  Muslim 
Ummah to carnage and pillory, they will have started in the churches  and 
mosques. I hope you don't get so excited as to start a religious crusade on  
friggin. It is good to hear you however for I haven't heard you for quite some  
time, since Posten. I remembered you more sober then. I hope your new year is  
starting out well. Best wishes to the family and your Christian bretheren. May  
the lord keep and guide you.
 
Haruna Friggin Jesus. Where are you writing from anyway? You are a good  
soul. I think you'll enjoy the recounting of the passover. The prophets do  have a 
sense of humor afterall. Easy breezy bro. Check you later aligator.  Ifanang 
ibe bantanbilly la friggin lela??? Kori  hera??

'Yahya????Jesus friggin Christ'

Dear  Haruna,

The fact that christianity won't police itself does not justify  this 
irreverent use of the name of Jesus Christ
The fact that christians  won't go on the rampage to in honour of Jesus 
Christ does not justify  this
The fact that Christians themselves bring dishonour to the name of  their 
Lord does not justify your phrase
The fact that Americans use the  name of Jesus in a disrespectful way cannot 
excuse this phrase

Anyway,  Haruna, i am not a religious watch dog. I raised this matter out of  
curiousity. Cus the same remark directed at some other religions may result 
in  untold catastrophie and loss of life. We should not celebrate IRREVERENCE.  
Others view irreverence as a catalyst for a bloody showdown.  As i  conclude, 
i want to remind everyone that peace is not only susatined by what  we did 
not say, but it is largely sustained by how much we are prepared to  tolerate 
from each other. My message in short is  TOLERANCE.

Pa-Pierre
HAPPY 2008

This is over the top. Men.  Do these people have anything better to do? I  
guess not. Yahya  should save us these circuses. Men. I ask him to declare a 
day  
of  mourning for the fires in California and he gives us a day of what for 
baby  
Yahya????Jesus friggin Christ. I'm calling state house on monday and  
somebody  better pick-up. Holiday my  foot.
