May I please recycle my favorite Ian Paisley quote? Around 1978 the British

Prime Minister, a genial and easy-going fellow named Jim Callaghan

(variously nicknamed “Sunny Jim” and “Gentleman Jim”–you get the picture)

held one of those knocking-heads-together series of meetings with Ulster

leaders that British Prime Ministers have to arrange every so often. At his

meeting with Paisley, the P.M. had to undure a long rant about the

wickedness of Catholics. Gentleman Jim put up with this for a while, then

remarked in his most soothing manner: “Come, come, Mr. Paisley. Are we not

all the children of God?” Paisley: “No, Sir! We are the children of

WRATH!”
