This is an actual picture on the wall in Carson's house. It makes me shudder to ponder what they were doing before this, given their guilty grins and jesus' bathrobe. What is jesus offering to do with that outstretched palm?

Let us not forget that he was a 'gifted' brain surgeon; he claimed to "see" gliomas where no other could see them; and cut them out.

Similar to the doctrines of lobotomy and "Negroes" were immune to syphilis owing to their 'morals'. He also believes that leprosy--in the bible--is an affliction sent by his god to anybody he dislikes. .

I think Ben is even more disliked than TFG. His public service life has been a total embarrassment.
