Bachmann To America's Youth: We Serve God, Give Your Life Over To Jesus
http://thenewcivilrightsmovement.com/bachmann-to-americas-youth-we-serve-god-give-your-life-over-to-jesus/politics/2011/08/28/25983

Michele Bachmann, speaking in Iowa earlier this month, said, “We serve a mighty God,” as she “testified” about her Evangelical Christian faith to a small crowd on that rainy West Des Moines weekend. Bachmann also said, “Jesus is powerful,” and urged young people to “give your life over to him.”

Bachmann appeared on stage at a Christian music rally, the Spirit Midwest Music Festival, saying, “God is not partial,” and added that “what he will do for one he will do for all.” Just, not, you know, for gays, in Bachmann’s worldview.

Bachmann spoke for about eight minutes, and the entire speech was about how she came to Jesus. Most of those on the Right find this perfectly acceptable campaign talk, while most of those on the Left are offended with such blatant disregard of the Constitution. In other parts of the civilized world, like the U.K., this speech would be reviled.

2. When you talk to God it's called "prayer"..
When God talks to you it's called "schizophrenia".

I'm always very suspicious of anyone who thinks they know what God wants.

6. love the schizophrenia quote

'the bible, isn't that the written down hearsay of what happened?'

anyone ever play the game of whisper a message across multiple persons and compare message at beginning and end?
