Sorry I have to explain a visual cartoon

[kairos12]

Two pop-up stands with a man sitting behind each. One has a long line, the other no line.

One stand had an overhead sign that was titled, "Comforting Lies."

The other stand had a sign titled, "Unpleasant Truths."

Don't need a visual to see which stand had no one in it.

1. Explains a lot about Bible reading

2. Much of that is actually quite unpleasant

...but you can cherry-pick out the comforting bits.

3. I think that's how some of the religious people read the constitution as well

[Shermann]

4. There is an art form to that

Expect to be pettifogged with cherry-picked details from the Constitution when debating a conservative.

You know you have them against the ropes when they ditch the Constitution and start quoting the Federalist papers.

5. Whenever I get that I

ask if those are the ones recommended by Cheech and Chong.

8. It's missing a table for "inflammatory lies." Pretty sure these days

that one would give "comforting lies" some big competition.
