Re: Hey Everyone.

Welcome Greasy!

Do you love discussing the Bible?

Re: Hey Everyone.

'Cause I love Grace so much and people say greasy grace a lot I kind took that term as a name here. Kind like a weird term of endearment I suppose.

SG Norris was said to have coined the term "greasy grace." It may have, indeed most likely was already in use in some way, but he seems to have been the source for our use of the term.

I've actually come to respect Norris' use as I think I hear some irony being expressed by him, even humor. It is unfortunate that a later generation spun the whole thing into the pejorative that most of us associate with the term.

I'm glad that you've taken it up with some humor.

Re: Hey Everyone.

I agree with Pel. Greasy, it is good that you can laugh it off. But still use it.
