In our Sunday School we got a few stories from the Old Testimonial. Samson, little David, stuff like that. Wasn’t till later I read the parts about smiting hip and thigh, and what happened to the Amorites and the Cannanites and the Sodomites and the Gomorrahnians.
Shit load of smiting going on. But it was all OK because God said so. He had already sorted them out, so…
I consider myself to be very fortunate that my only exposure to this so-called news channel comes from links in this thread. Even P.T. Barnum didn’t see such blatant lying stupidity as a possibility.
Co-host Ainsley Earhardt said that Obama’s remarks were “completely inappropriate” because there were many evangelical Christians at the National Prayer Breakfast. “Know your audience,” she recommended. “No one expected the Inquisition to be mentioned at the National Prayer Breakfast.”
Well, yeah. Nobody expects the Spanish Inquisition.
I would hope that the audience of the President of the United States, at ANY public function, would be the people of the United States, not just a bunch of evangelical Christianists present in the room.
