    Lots off bible thumping but not sure what that has to do with the flooding. Perhaps a new thread needs to be created

    First of all, in my experience, most threads that go long enough are going to have at least a couple of tangential discussions going on. Secondly, the point I've been trying to make, here, is that you can't just read the parable of the Lost Sheep and then extrapolate, from that, how Jesus would handle the flooding in Texas. Admittedly, that's not the same as linking a press conference but it's not totally off topic either, imo.

    A new guy arrives in prison, and on his first night in the cell block, he hears something strange during lights out.

    One prisoner yells, “47!” and the whole cell block bursts out laughing.

    Another yells, “19!” — again, everyone laughs.

    The new guy is confused and asks his cellmate what's going on.

    His cellmate explains, “We’ve all been here so long, we’ve heard all the jokes a million times. So to save time, we just numbered them. Someone shouts a number, and we all remember the joke and laugh.”

    The new guy thinks that’s clever and decides to try it.

    The next night, he stands up and shouts, “22!
    Dead silence.

    He tries again: “37!
    Still silence. A cough or two, but no laughter.

    Embarrassed, he sits back down and whispers to his cellmate, “What happened? Why didn’t anyone laugh?”

    His cellmate shrugs and says, “Some people can tell 'em and some people can't”

    I listed many examples. Not just the lost sheep one.
