When will the Pukes Rewrite the bible???
I have to sit back and laugh a little regarding the way the pukes are remolding their environment to suite themselves

- pack the courts
- make evolution the standard
- don't focus or allow focus on misdeeds etc...
- defunding PBS
- redoing SS so that their supports on Wall Street are happy...

If i didn't laugh, I would probably hurt someone.....but I wonder there is actually so much for them to do...so when will they go back to where it all comes fom and just rewrite the bible to "back them up" and better support their causes.....

How would you rewrite the republican Bible....let's just call it the King Kkkkarl Version.....here are some ideas:

The 10 Commandments:

ONE: 'You shall have no other party before the Republican party.'

TWO: 'You shall not make for yourself a carved image--any likeness of anything that is in heaven above, or that is in the earth beneath, or that is in the water under the earth.'

THREE: 'You shall not take the name of the LORD your God in vain, unless you get so frustrated with liberals that you just can't contain yourself.'

FOUR: 'Remember the Sabbath day, to keep it holy.....with NASCAR, Football, and drinking beer around the barbeque.'

FIVE: 'Honor your father and your mother; even if have of them are divorced. Do not honor them if they speak ill of the true light shining from the republican party'

SIX: 'You shall not murder, unless it is advantagious to our corporate supporters, and makes our leader look like a "war president".'

SEVEN: 'You shall not commit adultery, but since statistically you will, make sure it is a good one and that you have plausable deniability when the accusations start to fly.'

EIGHT: 'You shall not steal......yeah....whatever....it makes a good press release.'

NINE: 'You shall not bear false witness against your neighbor, unless it allows for pre-emptive invasion, and generally allows us to "get His good work done".'

TEN: 'You shall not covet your neighbour's house; you shall not covet your neighbour's wife, nor his male servant, nor his female servant, nor his ox, nor his donkey, nor anything that is your neighbour's. Again a good example of the difference between theory and practise....See Item Number Eight'


So anyone care to help rewrite the republican bible...verses, stories, etc????

1. They interpret it differently every day...
to serve their ends. Which is as good as re-writing it.

2. They already have rewritten it with their interpretations on end-times

Read Steven Wohlberg's book End Time Delusions or Grace Halsell's Forcing God's Hand. They've concocted this Third Temple eschatology that requires that the Dome of the Rock be destroyed so that a Third Temple can be built. This insanity is viewed as prophetically necessary so that the anti-christ can come and sit in ... that Temple. They see themselves as 'speeding the plough' so to speak.

See PBS's story on this:

http://www.pbs.org/wnet/religionandethics/week319/cover.html

Also, George Monbiot's excellent article:

'Their beliefs are bonkers, but they are at the heart of power
US Christian fundamentalists are driving Bush's Middle East policy'

http://www.guardian.co.uk/comment/story/0,3604,1195568,00.html

Someone needs to guide them to the 'historicist' eschatological view that prevailed up to the end of WWII. After that point, things began to be played for political purposes rather than scriptural purposes. Just google: origins futurism historicism . Begin reading for yourself and start asking 'why' these viewpoints have become so politicized.
