Excellent post.
You’re better than me who has no patience with these rabid snake handlers, Bible thumpers, Harold Campings, Paul Crouches, Jim Joneses, the Bakkers, don’t forget the second ‘k’, Billy Grahams, who claim they saw freedom of religion in the Soviet Union, all those parents who will rather see their child die than to give him an aspirin, the 7th Day Witnesses knocking on our doors day in, day out, did I miss anyone? Oh yes, I missed the 30,000+ different hateful heresies.
Hey look! Obama has a FR account!
Well, if you don’t like bible thumpers perhaps you should find a different forum. This forum stands for GOD and country. Lots of us “bible thumpers” enjoy our freedom to post here in this more or less atheist-free island of conservative sanity.
INDEED!
Sure glad that NONE of these are the head of a very big church!!
