One House Republican decided his colleagues needed a little inspiration, so he sent every one of them a new Bible.

Rep. Steven Palazzo (R-MS) sent a letter as well, telling each of his House and Senate colleagues that the “best advice comes through meditating on God’s Word” and that the Holy Bible could “help guide you in your decision-making.” …

True if they’re Christian. I see little evidence of that.

The Word of God is nonsense to those who are perishing and lack the Holy Spirit to discern and interpret it.

Let’s hope that that at least one of them actually opens up their new Bible and starts to read.It could make all the difference in their lives.

Do you people see the crap that happens when one tries to impress their religion on others.

I am not saying it’s bad to be a Christian or Jew or whatever. I am saying let that be YOUR guide to living. Raise YOUR children with those values. Talk about YOUR relationship with an almighty.

Keep it out of OUR government.

Otherwise, when taken to the extreme, you end up with Islam.

In the hands of the devils followers the Word of God, is a most useful tool, “Yea, hath God said”...

Free stuff for all who follow the Demoncrats, implied of course.

Indeed, this intolerant bigot has offended all Muslims, Jews, Hindus and especially all atheists. He needs to be drawn and quartered, not to mention severely censured and silenced. How dare he think his book is better than Darwin's. How date he push this old tome. We are all outraged, injured, and must sue this degenerate infidel. 😢 😣 😥. 😉. Sarcasm tag!

The Bible isn’t just religion. It’s literature and philosophy with some history in its stories.

We are not the USSR, or at least were not founded as such. Abandoning Christian morality at the government level is one of the primary sources of our problems.

Did you ever hear of the Inquisition or the Salem witch trials? Two real quick examples of what happens when the “priests” run the show.

I am a Christian. But I see danger when you mix religion and government. You can use your religious values as a base for your laws. But the bible should never be secular law.
