If Bush told his followers to tattoo "666" on their foreheads, would they? |
|
I think, to a man or woman, they would.
I think they would run to get Swiss Army knives, candles, and ballpoint pens and do it themselves. And they would cry and shout "Hallelujah!" at the exquisite pain, and have religious orgasms the likes of which no one on Earth has ever experienced before.
Not one of Bush's fundamentalist core of fanatics would ever, even for a second, see a problem with any of this. None of them would have a clue that it conflicts with major warnings provided by their own Bible. Hell, they read the warnings in the Bible now, and they absolutely don't seem to care or make any connections whatsoever. They so, so want to believe.

These people would be the first to scream "crucify him!"
They aren't Christians, they are cult members.

12. My brother and SIL would be right behind them |
|
They believe all that they are told by their church.
I guess religion really is the opiate of the masses.

5. Fundies are 'special'. |
|
A couple years ago, a fundie suggested we liberals were going to start cannabalizing them. I let her know, no thanks, I was a vegetarian. If projection means anything, dear god...I think we should start dieting.

6. In a way, they already have. If you take Revelations seriously -- I |

don't, but some fundie relatives of mine do -- then Bush comes closer than any other recent candidate to matching the description of the Antichrist.

I bet they'd tatoo a cross on their foreheads in about 2 seconds.
