Scripture on Saturday

Submitted October 11, 2008 - 9:55 am by Catherine Cain

@Pam, I do love your enthusiasm for this election but with all due respect, what the hell does that Scripture mean? It drives me CRAZY when people read into something written a thousand or whatever years ago to interpret that the person who spoke those words then would KNOW that Sarah Palin would be winking during a presidential campaign in 2008. I mean seriously. The scripture is trying to say winks are bad? Generally they're not - they're pretty neat. I stopped going to church decades ago to avoid this rubbish and I don't know why people feel the need to preach on blogs that clearly have nothing to do with religion.

(p.s. my questions are rhetorical - I'm not really looking for a modern day interpretation of old religious books)
