No flips for you!
YAY! Unofficial "mentor" for candidate used in hit piece against candidate. News at eleven.
Seriously, Carson makes enough mistakes that papers shouldn't be needing to go out and find crackpots to fill in the hit pieces.

The circus keeps getting smaller. Honestly though, I thought he had quit weeks ago.
The issue...errr...one issue with Carson is that his followers don't give a damn what mistakes he makes.
Nah. But I think he finally figured out the election campaign wasn't working after he didn't get a boost in the polls after he, Huckabee & Cruz went to that "death sentence for gays" conference.

Well, in there defense, Christian texts do mention a lot of killings and say that all sort of people should be killed in the name of their divinity. They also feature their divinity doing a lot of killing, cause it rolls that way. We shouldn't be surprised that at a Christian rally people call for the killing of people. What is surprising is that it doesn't happen more often.

Well there exists a certain sort of Christian who is all Old Testament when it comes to the things that they don't agree with but when it comes to the things that they might do (adultery, sex outside of wedlock, eating shellfish, improper treatment of their slaves) it's all the sweetness and light of the New Testament.

And even then they select what they want from the new testament. Romans 1:18-32 is all about death worthy behaviors like sleeping with men, whispering and disobeying you parents.

The whole book is outmoded concepts from a time long since past. While I think there are parts yet in the Bible that should be held onto, there is a great deal that need to be looked at with a more modern eye. A reason I have furthered myself from my Church is that tendency to place the book on an unassailable pedestal.
Christianity is hardly the only organized religion which has followers and sects cherry-picking beliefs and interpretations from holy texts. It seems to be more human nature than anything.

They needed more guns at that hate rally to really get GOP voter attention. If they'd had a PowerPoint presentation going over the best guns to kill gays with, Jindal, Cruz, and Huckabee would be trending at 200% each.
