THOU SHALL NOT SUFFER A WITCH TO LIVE ( EXODUS 22:17).
OK, Right-wing-Bible-believin'-belters, get out your stones. Anti-masturbation activist O'Donnell, who has 'dabbled around in witchcraft' must be put to death. If God didn't make Adam and Steve, surely you must also follow the commandment put forth in The Holy Book about witches. Right? Right?

1. They only follow the rules they happen to agree with at the time.

2. I hope she will come along voluntarily - I hate those scenes with chains, etc....
You have to burn them at the stake, because the clergy is forbidden to shed blood...

3. No, one can repent or be healed
Jesus drove demons from Mary Magdelene's womb and they lived happily ever after... with a few bumps along the way.

(Offering to drive th demons from someone's womb is either the worst or best pick-up line ever)

4. "Dabbled" ? As in 'Double Dabble, Roil the Rabble"?

5. I get daily emails from a fundie, evangelical friend...
...and he has been noticeably silent on the subject of Ms. O'Donnell.

I believe this is how things will play out, because if she gains traction, and if the religious right starts Bible-thumping and lighting the bonfire for her ritual stake burning, you know what will happen next, don't you?

Don't you?



A DEMOCRAT will win!

:spray:

...and if they have a choice between a Republican witch or a Democratic church-goer, they'll turn their heads the other way on that witch thing. It's all about "Kingdom Building," the big picture.

This same friend used to repeat the far-right's mantra about Grampy McBush during the 2008 campaign: "Hold your nose and vote for McCain."

So a renegade pastor may stray from the flock here and there with some harsh words, but for the most part, I think the fundies are going to STFU on all matters McDonnell.

:patriot:

6. Well, friend, I ain't Adam. But I am a Steve.
And I don't believe in witches or the Bible much.

But I get really excited over Pristine O'Donnell, so much so that I can barely contain my glee.

If gifts from God ever happen, this surely must be one of them.

Well, naw, probably not. But I'm glad God and the Republicans sent her to us at this prescribed time nonetheless.

:rofl:

I pledge to touch myself throughout her campaign; I just won't be looking at her picture.

:)

7. You are right, Bluebear. The Bible is very clear on this issue. No picking and choosing.
It's clearly right there. Thanks for Word of the Lord.

8. No no no! You have it all wrong! It's OK to sin and then repent! In fact, that's even better than
not sinning in the first place! Because Jesus came and threw all that scary Exodus stuff out, and if she's saved through him, then it's all OK and she can tell us exactly how to run our own lives! GEDDIT?

11. I resemble that remark!
Don't forget that some of us here are Wiccans. Stoning or burning witches isn't funny when it's been done to your people.
