Pittman's biography on the legislative website lists his profession as "pastor, shipping worker, company chaplain."

So another fine example of someone who supposedly follows Jesus Christ and doesn't follow the teachings of him. I really wish that JC were real and would come back and biatch slap all the idiots that supposedly follow him and espouse his teachings, but don't actually follow through with it.

north carolina really needs to stop allowing state representatives to unilaterally pass legislation via email replies.

dickfreckle: Of course. This is, after all, the United States of What I Think Jesus Stands For But Never Got Around To Saying.

Dickfreckle, I'm just sending you this personal message because I don't want to make a big scene on Fark. I have nothing against you, understand that, but this statement is completely ignorant. Jesus never got around to saying those things because he was killed, struck down in the prime of his life by a pack of Jews, and it offends me to the core that you would belittle all the words he was about to write but didn't because he died for Your Sins. The real tragedy is that if he'd had a pen while he'd been locked in that tomb for those three days after he rose from the dead, he would have written them down. Those would have been the Unrecorded Scriptures -- that's what they are now because they weren't recorded but they would have been recorded if he'd had a quill, so it's sort of a big irony sort of thing -- and they would have explained in crystal clear daylight imagery that nobody could ignore all the important points that really defined his life but he never had time to say before he died. You know, stuff about abortion and gays and unions and corporations and those sort of things. And it just really bothers me that people like you belittle those words he was about to write for the purposes of some stupid "witty" fark post.

I hope you feel at some level like you're better than that. I really do. Just reply to this email if you want to respond; I'm not looking to argue but if you want to be saved I'm here for you.

Ha! Give some people enough rope and they hang themselves.

dickfreckle: Of course. This is, after all, the United States of What I Think Jesus Stands For But Never Got Around To Saying.

Jesus Christ is rapidly becoming an extremely controversial and polarizing figure to Christians (you know, the people whose religion was named after him.) I would be willing to bet large sums of money that major denominations in certain parts of America will soon be banning the use of certain Biblical passages (e.g., the Beatitudes) for political reasons. Anybody who thinks this sounds silly hasn't really been paying attention to recent history.

Name a price, my brother in Christ. I've been shopping around for deals on being born again, but they always try to nickel and dime me with undercarriage rustproofing and speedholes for a higher performing rapture. But you? You seem like a straight shooter. You just have a seat there while I get my checkbook.

Pocketninja and dickfreckle,

Can I offer you both a handsome deal on atheism? You get to movk all other foolish people who hang onto the primitive ideas of an invisible sky wizard. Then, at the appointed time, we will take over the united states and force all of the "religious" people to gay marriage. Only separating the young maidens out as our personal servants. (slavery is illegal). We will then place the religious in the concentration camps where their own enlighten children will gleefully execute them with rabbid snails.

Not bloody likely. They're much more likely to suspend their reason just... that... little... bit... more... and start to believe that the Beatitudes are about the rich going to Heaven and killing any people who don't agree with them. Hell - I've heard vengeance and hate preached on "God is Love".

My co-worker today was speaking about the sanctity of marriage because of its holy place in the church and I bet her $50 I could become an ordained minister in 15 minutes and legally marry any two unmarried legal adults. (We're in DC) then I got to the Universal Life Church Web sit and she said that doesn't count because it is not a real church visited by people of God.

You can also pick numerous titles on the certificate. I went with Wizard, myself.

Gee, another retarded Republican. Imagine that.

why do these people complain about other people finding out what they really think?
he stands by what he said, right?? LOL

and, excuse me, but why is he singling out the doctors?
he is going to execute them women who get abortions too, right?
RIGHT?

if the doctor is a murderer, so is the woman who paid the doctor to kill her baby.
and can we make that law retro-active, pretty please??

why not?
LOLOLOLOL

cowards

/and no, I think abortion should be legal in all states and free to anyone who wants one

namatad: he is going to execute them women who get abortions too, right?

And also the women who have miscarriages. They need to be put on trial to prove it wasn't their fault.

Gwendolyn: You can also pick numerous titles on the certificate. I went with Wizard, myself.

Sounds kind of Klanish.

Did you get a white robe and pointy hat too?

To take liberties with an old adage: you've never truly seen a man until you've seen him drunk, or you've seen him hit "reply all" accidentally.

wheatpennyandaglock: what if jesus would have had as many appeals as a current death row inmate? He might have never been executed. think about that dude.

And have God's will thwarted? Nah. If need be, God would have simply smashed Jesus like a bug with His skyborne fist to make the sacrifice happen; it wouldn't have been the most revolting thing He'd done. Besides, it'd just be God hitting himself anyway, which isn't too far from what the Bible "records" as happening. If it all goes according to God's plan, then I assume God has the right to cut out the middlemen.

If there was any real sanctity of marriage, divorce would be illegal.

DubyaHater: He's an elected official in NASCAR country. He'll be reelected in a landslide.

Actually, the article says he was appointed. I'm curious what that's all about. Any research will have to wait until I have more coffee though.

And the numbers of murdered spouses, or those who met with unfortunate "accidents" would skyrocket.
