>>No, but which part of "preaching" is secular?

>Sure. Mums preach to their kids all the time. I do to mine, eg about not flushing the toilet, or leaving their room lights on wehn they're not there, or leaving my 'puter on and the broadband router when they're watching a movie (mind you. they're converted on consewrvation now and are pretty good at this)

Oh no, I don't/didn't do it unidirectionally. Preaching excludes dialogue.

>>Anyway, I'd need to believe that my voice was uplifted to bearable levels. I know I don't like it when I try to sing. I went to about four or five rehearsals while in high school, and was sent out for good (as a comfort, I wasn't the only one).

>You look like you could do a Joe Cocker.

Specially the epileptic-looking hand movements ;). Maybe I should have sandpaper for breakfast for a few years to achieve Tom Waits voice?
