August 31, 2018 at 5:48 pm EDT By Taegan Goddard 143 Comments
Vice President Mike Pence turned to the Bible when asked recently what he makes of a new critical biography, The Shadow President, that calls him a Christian supremacist, USA Today reports.
Said Pence: The Bible says count it all joy when you endure trials of many kinds. Any time Im criticized for my belief in Jesus Christ, I just breath a prayer of praise.
Our recent podcast episode with the authors of the book is very good.

Seriously. What the fuck else do we still believe from the Iron Age?
Anyone want the same sort of health care, food, clothing, "science" from back then?
No? I thought not. Then stop asking me to believe in your Iron Age Gods.
