ESPECIALLY any second weddings, 'cause Jeebus was really pissed about divorce.

Pretty nearly the only thing he explicitly reviled, except that fig tree.

Sorry, I have to ask. If you can't see them, why do they annoy you?

(I just had my first double-double and chocolate shake in about a year and a half the other day. It was delicicicious.)

I think Editrix has already reserved that URI for the Wonkette Religion blog.

"Expressing freedom." Is the same type of freedom expression as beating crap out of someone because they are gay? This poor persecuted christian minority just doesn't have enough freedoms.

The appeal of hand-wringing like a persecuted victim is too seductive.

Actually, this isn't a bad idea if you dislike gays that much. Problem* is, even borderline anti-gay folks will look at that verse and think, "I don't get this gay orientation thing, but this is some really hateful shit. Maybe I'll go with the non-gay murdering photographer to take snaps of the most love filled day of my life". See, it's not the non-gay that bugs folks...it the hateful kill-the-gays shit that gets under reasonable folk's skin.

*By "problem" I mean godsend. I want these folks to spew their hate louder, stronger, and sanity-free. Why? Eventually it will drive more folks into the camp with the rest of use folks who don't give a fuck about who has sex with who. Seriously, the only way this would work better is if these homophobic shutterbugs put a swastika on the card.

<i>whip up some business cards that reflect our beliefs, but we’ve been unable to find the Bible verse that says that we specialize in exorcizing the stupid out of people.</i>

me personally, i would just go with some machiavelli. or nietzsche.

or john webster.

Exorcising the stupid? I think it starts: Eenie Meanie, chili beanie, the spirits are about to speak.
