Perhaps you should, I didn't say a thing about Jehovah. Why would
I? I believe in God, I'm a Catholic, and Silverman's free to say
what she wants, and Gibson's turned into a drunken old slug. You're
making this more than it should be.....nothing to do, eh? Must be
nice. These are celebrities, absolutely nothing to do with you, or
me. Let them rant, but don't put it out there like its important, it
doesn't matter in real life. Or, it shouldn't.
