Since when did love and self-sacrifice become a biblical virtue? Are you saying that unless you "believe in the bible" you cannot love or be a selfless individual? It was a good article the last paragraph...which was a bunch of crock.

I don't analize JERICHO too much, I just ENJOY it!
LOVE the excitement and that it's different than any other TV show on the air.
I'm wondering...who's going to die next week?
Anyone guess?
And who was that who called Hawkins?
Anyone guess?
Someone said on another board that he and his wife knew right away that it was Gray on the phone to Hawkins.
I don't know about that. I think it may be the last remaining ally after Chevez. Remember there is still one man missing?
As for who dies....I HATE to say that I think it will be Bonnie.

You are absolutely right! I for one gravitate towards shows like Jericho and movies like The Stand, 28 Days Later, etc. I think that Jericho, in particular, really makes you think about what you would do in similar situations to survive. Would your integrity remain intact or would you become desperate or just plain greedy in that situation? I just love the food for thought! Thanks for a great article!
