What would Jesus do with Napalm? USE IT INDESCRIMINATELY!!!

[HamdenRice]

I found this nugget of insane stupidity on a board for Christian power lifters that another thread alerted me to. This guy says not only was the world crazy to ban napalm, but that Jesus would use it even though it kills indiscriminately:

And our young men have been doing a helluva job over there. And what was the world thinking when it banned napalm in 1980? Just because it's an excruciating, indiscriminate way to kill people doesn't mean it can't be effective against 'targets'. You know Jesus would have used it. He wasn't stupid!

Well, I never fought in a war and frankly I'd be scared to death. If they have to fry some kiddies or shoot unarmed, wounded prisoners to keep me safe, then so be it.


That people can think like this -- I don't know whether to laugh or cry.

3. Sounds tongue -in-cheek to me.

God, I hope so.

6. No, it's serious ...

It's part of a larger thread -- a petition to support the Marine who shot dead a wounded, captured Iraqi soldier. Although there are some surprising dissenting posts in the thread, this one is consistent with the overall tone of, Jesus would kill 'em.

4. Is it so difficult

To see Jesus through Freep/Fundie eyes as discovering the pleasures of Napalm cathartic as rising on the third day?

5. This forum has to be a satire by non-christians non-powerlifters.

It reminds me of www.realultimatepower.net

7. Of course we're not talking about the Jesus

I was taught about when I was a child, we're talking about the new 'Extreme Jesus'.

"Kill'em all and send'em my way. I'll sort'em out later".

9. Wait, wasn't Jesus supposed to sort 'em out?

Isn't that the old standby of the Abu Ghraib, er, Vietnam psycho-righties?

"Kill 'em all and let God sort 'em out . . ."

10. J would have turned Napalm into Jergens Lotion and y'all know it.
