I have a dumb question...

[Pelata]

I understand calling Neal "Fro"...why do we call Cain "Friga"?

That used to be his last name.......

[Lula]

It's his given name, he changed it to Cain.

[Pelata]

Ah...Jon Friga.

[Carlitto H@kk]

It's his given name, he changed it to Cain.

How fitting...

Grew up in a strict Catholic upbringing,
I was an AlterBoy and went to a Catholic school until 7th grade...

How fitting that Friga changed his name to "Cain"...

In the book of Genesis, Cain murders his brother able, mankinds FIRST
act of murder, because God accepted Abel's sacrifice and not Cain's...

"In the course of time Cain brought some of the fruits of the soil as an offering to the Lord. But Abel brought the fat, fatlings, or milk as Josephus has it (the possible renderings of the consonantal Hebrew) from the firstborn of his flock. The Lord looked with favor on Abel and his offering, but on Cain and his offering he did not look with favor. So Cain was very angry, and his face was downcast. Then the Lord said to Cain, "Why are you angry? Why is your face downcast? If you do what is right, will you not be accepted? But if you do not do what is right, sin is crouching at your door; it desires to have you, but you must master it." Now Cain said to his brother Abel, "Let's go out to the field." And while they were in the field, Cain attacked his brother Abel and killed him." - Genesis 4:3-8

Like I said, how fitting...
The name 'Cain' is synonomous with "Greedy, Scheming, Sniveling, Back-Stabbing Bastard"

Well biblical scholar, tell the next part. According to something I just read, Cain then denied killing his brother saying "Am I my brother's keeper?" when asked where Abel was. Then he was banished to the land of Nod.

Now that sounds like a plan.

Following along quite nicely
Our present-day Cain will play along and act dumfounded by all this anger
and act like all is well, things were amicable and that he had nothing
to do with the terrible treatment of "his brother"...

Then will be banished to the land Of Nod...
Or in this case, The Land Of State Fairs and WalMart Conventions

MS Palata- There is no such thing as a dumb ? at MR. I do think that some days dumb answers may be found in just about any thread.

This is why in perry fandom they have been referred to as Cain and UnAble for years.

And while they were in the field, Cain attacked his brother Abel and killed him.

What a prick.
