Besides, if it is a "sin" to talk politics, then we would be defining an aspect of sin and it would all be applicable to the original post.

I don't know about you but I could sure go for some politics right now. Some tasty politics smothered in sweet and sour. Mmmm.

I like the fact that he's subversive and speaks his mind and has a sense of humour. I know he's a labour MP, but I don't know his views in detail except that he's left of the left.

Here's a good one. I've just googled him.

Perhaps that's the answer - using a food metaphor to discuss it under the guise of gluttony.

I honestly believe that we could devour some General Tso over some rice with less contention than feasting over burnt sacrifices.

Given that he's so disagreeable, it's surprising that he gets called as often as he does, but it's funny to watch how his tirades are treated with amused contempt by his opponents.
Here's Cameron showing another less bitter side of PM's questions.

Ok, I'll have to admit that British politics are quite more fun than US politics.

Sin does not have a fixed meaning. It is quite relative and something that is thought of as a complete taboo in one culture could be counted as a positive thing in another area.

Agree. Therefore to postulate its meaning is an attempt to murder mystery.:cheers2:
