    Default Evangelicals: You Need to Stop Believing In Stupid Things



    Hearing it from someone who was deeply embedded in the Evangelical culture makes the condemnation of it even more powerful. He's also brilliant which is likely why he cut the phony bible thumpers loose. Everything he says is what we all already know.

    A Modest Proposal For Separating Blue States From Red

    Dear Red-State Trump Voter,
    Let’s face it, guys: We’re done.


    It is a tragedy that so much of the work that so many men and women toiled at for so long to make this a better country, and a better world, has been thrown away, leaving us all in such needless peril.

    This is why our separation in all but name is necessary.

    They enjoy living in their Make-Believe world. I doubt they will change.

    There is more evidence of God than both of those two things. Combined

    Will you lead the coalition to ban the Bible, Jackass?
    Common sense is not a gift, it's a punishment because you have to deal with everyone who doesn't have it.

    Banning the perverted right wing Bible, and reestablishing the real Bible, which is based on humanity and not right wing ideology, would be very beneficial to mankind, you Turkey.

    You mean using the government to force one group to support another, something that isn't taught anywhere in the Bible?

    That was great stuff, and I'm sure he's right. He mentions C.S. Lewis, who was a fellow of my College in his old age - I always thought the bloke had got a bit thick, and I'm delighted to have it confirmed by so bright an American. The key point about the Evangelicals in America is that they are bitterly anti-Christian: it's the spirit that giveth Life, and all they care about is the bloody Letter.
