From a goofball who actually believes the Nazis were "Fundamentalist Christians," your "joke" is pretty rich.
I see you're still dodging issues and taking things out of context. You're a Bible literalist. Tell me, do you take Luke 18:20-22 literally?
"Sell all that thou hast, and distribute unto the poor, and thou shalt have treasure in heaven: and come, follow me."
I'll believe Pat Robertson, and you, when he gives his diamond mine in Zaire to the poor.

"Tell me, do you take Luke 18:20-22 literally?"Yes. John 3:16 as well (For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.) But Christ didn't demand everyone give everything away as THE one and only way to His Kingdom, did he?
But then again, scripture is about context as well and chapters in the Old Testament are sometimes tied to the New Testament.
Challenge your heart. Or even your intellect. Take a bible class or two. At a Baptist Church. You may be surprised not only by what you've taken out of context, but what you've misunderstood. I've been there myself.
You're not the only one not to "get" the bible.
