33. "Gods Plan"

Reply to Grassy Knoll (Original post)

Jul 2012

fill in the blank______________ is an evangelical dog whistle. It allows one to do horrible things and then claim to have been merely His instrument. A not atypical evangelical response to this would be something like: This happened because God has a plan for George Zimmerman's life (to make him a better man), and that for reasons known only to God, he used Zimmerman to end Trayvon Martin's life. I think the plan is to make Zimmerman an evangelical martyr and get at least one person who thinks so on his jury.
