Something To Be Moved?
a: Homosexuality ~
b: mountain
What: "Christ said, "If you have faith as a mustard seed, you shall say to this mountain, 'Move from here to there,' and it shall move" (Matthew 17:20). Homosexuality is like a mountain.

a: Ocean circulation ~
b: a jigsaw puzzle
What:
"Ocean circulation is like a jigsaw puzzle. In the ocean a myriad of physical processes with small scales contribute to the global flow, just as many small puzzle pieces must be assembled properly to produce the picture on the box. Improvements in ocean observing techniques and numerical models are just now allowing oceanographers to study ocean circulation at the ``puzzle piece'' level."

a: Bad recordkeeping ~
b: a gateway drug
What:
" Bad recordkeeping is like a gateway drug in the securities world. It almost certainly portends other bad activity, and cutting off access to irresponsible gatekeepers by suing them for non-scienter-based violations is an intelligent way for the SEC to save resources for bigger issues. "
