God Told Me To Do It! I Must OBEY! [View all]
This whole Kim Davis thing was a tipping point for me.
I don't mind when people express themselves religiously. It's a free country.
But, when people start telling the rest of us that they "Know" what "God" wants, claiming to obeying a "higher authority", that does it. These arrogant people don't "know" what "God" wants. "God" has never talked to any human being on this planet, and "God" never talked to people hundred or thousands of years ago who wrote these "holy" books, either. "God" doesn't give special instructions to priests or ministers, either, and it doesn't matter how many degrees they might have from seminaries, or how many millions or billions of people they represent. They don't "know" anything more about what "God" wants than the guy who picks up the trash around here every week - and he doesn't know anything about it, either!
It's all bull. Kim Davis and her kooky attorney are full of crap! "God" did not tell them they can be exempt from any laws they disagree with, and that they need to obey a "higher authority". They're frauds, all of them. They're hucksters trying to excuse the bigotry, and their anarchy, by claiming to have been inspired by "God"!
It's a fraud! They're stupid, and they're liars! And they invoke "God" because they are trying to establish their authority over the rest of us.
