Local businessman slanderedMelynda,

You write,

Still waiting for the Christian bakery which provides its customers with
moral reflections on gluttony (one of the Seven Deadlies, no less),


I assume a "Christian bakery" is one owned by Christians or associated with
a Christian institution.  Do I understand that you would prefer they hector,
er, "reflect", their values regarding gluttony rather than NOT "reflect"
their values regarding the other six "deadly sins"? (well actually seven,
seeing as how they don't moralize on gluttony, either).  Isn't it enough
that they provide food?  Should Bucer's preach temperance lectures as it
serves beer?  If you have had, do have, or ever will have a business of your
own, what moral reflections would you provide?

Is this what you really want?  If not, it would seems to be a non-sequitor.
Cheers,
-
David Douglas
