Nobody took God out of the schools, he was never there to begin with [View all]

Whenever we experience another of our now weekly mass shootings, some dickwad always chimes in about how this is because we've removed God from our schools.

When did we do that?

James Dickwad Dobson of course says that God actually 'allowed' this to happen.

What the fuck kind of a sick God actually 'ALLOWS' children to be slaughtered with a machine gun? And why the fuck didn't this all powerful God actually STOP the killer? Oh yeah, because he wasn't there that day, cause we'd removed him.

Every time there is a tornado, the survivors all say that a guardian angel must have been looking out for them, while the casualties apparently weren't godly enough to save I guess.

So this angry invisible God who has no name picks out 20 babies to have murdered because we dare to ignore him and because we aren't praying loud or fast enough.

What the fuck.
