Well, sure. The Bible isn't as important to them as it is to other Christian sects, and they consider most of it metaphorical or allegorical, rather than... uh... "Gospel truth".
Yes, seeking refuge in Egypt was kind of a thing in those days. I've thought that a biblically inclined person could make a superficial case that the US is like the Egypt of the modern world.
So crucifixion is the next logical step! Suppose they'll build and carry their own crosses... lets hold the crucicircus at the capitol where their holiness first manifested. Flynn can pound in the nails. Ill even go to Washington to watch!
The ADL will go after anyone who criticizes Israel in any way. This business with the prayer shawl and shofar is really antisemitic in that it refers to (I think) the time when Christians all get sucked up into heaven and all the Jews die. I hope the ADL goes after these guys with the same determination.
IIRC Mohammed took his inspiration for his misogynistic monotheistic religion directly from Jewish merchants rather than Christians, but it's been a while so I may be mistaken.
This prat is possibly thinking of the claim in ... I forget which gospel ... that Jesus went into the temple at age twelve and confounded all the priests and scholars with his knowledge. A thing it is a sure bet did not actually happen.

Willful ignorance is the entirety of what they're selling.

I could have gone into exhaustive detail - this is one of my hobbies - but I know my audience.
Even in the undeclared wars the only one we can definitively say we "won" was Grenada.
oy gevalt!
Several of the atheists that I've met were the only people in their Christian family to actually read the bible.

and no "Christian" in the audience called out to correct Flynn? Bunch of weenies.
Little known bible fact: Jesus was a Jew.
If you have any Stephen Amells to spare, may I borrow one?
