'Black and white', as in:

Trump is good, he can do no wrong.

The Bible is right, and every word needs to be taken literally.

They need to simplify and reduce everything down to simple absolutes, in circumstances where rational people know that just isn't possible.

No shades of grey there, no . . . 'some interpretation is needed', or 'some intellectual deliberation is needed to sort the good from the bad'.

And you DO get a bad feeling about people like that. Best avoided. Permanent social distancing advised, at least a few miles.

All the words except:
Many of Ten Commandments
and all the quotes supposedly made by Jesus.

I don't post anything, just trying to find old classmates. Decided to put her name in and found it. I was dumbfounded when it popped up. I've known her for almost 30 years.
