Bible thumpers, old and newuaker, Catholic,

[robinlandseadel at comcast.net]

         Lapsed Quaker, Southern Baptist, Catholic, 
         Atheist, and now absorbed into the kind of 
         Hodge-Podge of assimilated multiple 
         spiritual systems . . . .

And still can't figure out how to make links work:

  . . . .Attacking the foolish, a component of ancient or 
         modern satire, is found in Athenian Old Comedy 
         whose sole extant representative is Aristophanes. 
         The Romans also borrowed attention-grabbing 
         techniques from the Cynic and Skeptic preachers. 
         Their extemporaneous sermons called diatribes 
         could be embellished with anecdotes, character 
         sketches, fables, obscene jokes, parodies of 
         serious poetry, and other elements also found in 
         Roman satire. . . .
