a near-miss to a great line


Terri Coulter: What would you do if you couldn't have children?

Felty Yoder: I would pray to God to send them to me.

Terri Coulter: What if you don't believe in God?

what Felty should have said


Then why would you want to have children?

Not that I'm trying to force anyone to believe, but I think that would have been a more natural, less confrontational & more Socratic line for him.

i feel yoders line was more in keeping with the actual attitude of amish i have known over the last nearly 40 years. At least the Lancaster County Amish

nah I like Weiners line better. yours makes no sense.

reply

Yeah I'm sorry, but your line makes no sense.

Typical armchair critic.

If you think you can do better, write your own script. Once you realize it doesn't make sense to anyone else but you, maybe then you'll see the truth.
