I'm Not One Of Those 'Love Thy Neighbor' Christians
One of those moments when the Onion gets to the truth in ways no serious outlet could:
Now, granted, there are some Christians on the lunatic fringe who
take their beliefs a little too far. Take my coworker Karen, for
example. She's way off the deep end when it comes to religion: going
down to the homeless shelter to volunteer once a month, donating money
to the poor, visiting elderly shut-ins with the Meals on Wheels
program—you name it!
But believe me, we're not all that way. The people in my church, for
the most part, are perfectly ordinary Americans like you and me. They
believe in the simple old-fashioned traditions—Christmas, Easter, the
slow and deliberate takeover of more and more county school boards to
get the political power necessary to ban evolution from textbooks
statewide. That sort of thing.
We oppose gay marriage as an abomination against the laws of God and
America, we're against gun control, and we fervently and unwaveringly
believe that the Jews, Muslims, and all on earth who are not born-again
Pentecostalists are possessed by Satan and should be treated as such.
When it comes down to it, all we want is to see every single member
of the human race convert to our religion or else be condemned by a
jealous and wrathful God to suffer an eternity of agony and torture in
the Lake of Fire!
I hope I've helped set the record straight, and I wish you all a very nice day! God bless you!
