Has anyone mentioned that "Cain" was a rather unpleasant character in the Bible? |
|
Why hasn't Pat Robertson or some other bigmouth mentioned this?

1. Unless his first name was Herman |
|
I don't see how it's relevant to the Bible

3. It isn't, but since Pat Robertson or whoever it was can pray and make a hurricane go out to sea, |
|
and if Nola was punished by God in 2005 for being "bad," then I figure it makes sense by such "reasoning" to make the Herman Cain-Cain son of Adam connection.

2. Cain was the Bible's first Republican, unless you count the serpent. |

4. Then we have to reflect how he got the last name. |
|
I doubt it's the true name of his ancestors shall we say.

5. If he were the President, I have no doubt that he would leave the Mark of Cain on the Nation. |

6. I like to refer to candidate Cain as "Un-Abel" myself... |
|
I suppose "mark of Cain" would do as well...

8. Cain's only problem was that God was not a vegetarian |
|
God approved of Abel's offering of dead animals, but not the produce of the land offered by Cain.
It's that old ranchers versus sodbusters thing.
