I'd like to dedicate tonight's tune (from Porgy and Bess, but sung by Cher [!] on a tribute album from the early nineties) to those who suffer from what I call "selective scripture syndrome" ...
... to those who miss the overall message in the NEW testament (emphasis on the qualifying word) about love in order to pick and choose whatever one of the thirty-one thousand, one hundred and three verses in the Bible fits their argument for hate ...
... to those who maybe should heed the advice contained in the words of the tune ...
To get into heaven ...
Live clean and don't have no fault.
Take that gospel
Whenever it's possible
But with a little grain of salt
WITH A LITTLE GRAIN OF SALT:
