How do evangelicals justify their abhorrent, nasty, viscious, crude, fanatical, ugly, bizzare, criminal behavior? It's easy. Do-it-yourself-interpretation-of-scriptures! It's the simple way to justify any behavior, including behaviors that fall way, way outside the scope of acceptable Ten Commandment behavior.
Do-it-yourself-interpretation allows drunken evangelical Baptists to condemn those who imbibe.
Do-it-yourself-interpretation allows right-wing bible-thumpers to condone murder of doctors who perform abortions...and the murder of anyone else who is outside the mainstream of evangelical dogma.
Do-it-yourself-interpretation allows perverted God-loving super-patriots to watch videos of paraplegic, drug-dependent war veterans engage in forced sex with children and farm animals.
Do-it-yourself-interpretation permits death penalty zealots to passionately argue that killing an obviously deranged mother who drowned her children is not state-sanctioned murder but, instead, execution of God's orders to purify mankind.
Do-it-yourself-interpretation permits people like me to butcher evangelical Christians and drink their blood. Oh, I guess not...I'm not an evangelical Christian. And I have better taste, anyway.
OK, I'll admit this post is odd and not worthy of publication...but it's my blog and I'll rant if I want to, rant if I want to, rant is I want to, you would rant, too, if your blog were true....
