Purloin that Nuclear Waste

A. Unabashed Pacifist:

Peace has never bothered me.

B. Unabashed Christian:

Holy One,

You are always emerging into view. Each day I feel as if I see and know a little more of you. Always in part, but always more. The best view I’ve seen is in the person of Jesus – his life and teachings, death and resurrection. He reveals you quite well, I think. What a grand idea, incarnation. We’re still trying to comprehend it.
Amen

C. Un-quoting Jesus:

“Well, yes, James. I suppose if Solomon did it, then it is biblically permissible. Um , just out of curiosity – how many wives do you have in mind?”

[His guys missed a lot, but He didn’t say this.]

D. Blog: Word of the Week – “purloin”

FreeDictionary.com tells us it means:

Verb
1.
purloin - make off with belongings of others
cabbage, filch, pilfer, snarf, swipe, abstract, nobble, pinch, sneak, hook, lift, steal - take without the owner's consent

[cabbage?, snarf?, abstract?, nobble? For real??]

The Online Etymology Dictionary says it comes from:

c.1440, "to put far away," from Anglo-Fr. purloigner "remove," from O.Fr. porloigner "put off, retard, delay," from por- (from L. pro- "forth") + O.Fr. loing "far," from L. longe, from longus. Sense of "to steal" (1548) is a development in Eng.

[What happened to put far away? I like that one. We have a lot of words that mean steal.]
