Venicilian: wow. Jesus hung around with everyone. boys, girls, rich, poor(mostly), sick, healthy, etc. in fact, i bet he even went up to gay people and tried to heal them so they would be straight.

New Kereptica: Since power is changed energy over time, an increase in power would mean, in this case, an increase in energy. As energy is equivalent to mass and the density of the government is static, the volume of the government must increase.

I personally find nothing wrong with the term, but wondered what others think, as I am willing to be sensitive to such feelings, to a point. I personally use my palm for better things . . . :eyebrow:
