[QUOTE="pickup, post: 553494"] add to this list 23) because as a religious christian fundamentalist who believes that the bible (my translation) is the literal word of god, I want the make the laws (as I perceive them and the ones I like) of this book into the laws of the land. Of course, this might mean selective reading of the bible (i.e. reading every other page of the bible) in order to get the restrictive laws on the book, like stores being closed on sunday and mandatory church attendance, stoning of witches(those of other religions) etc. But,other laws on the other pages like tithing and leaving my fields fallow on every jubilee year and kindness towards strangers, the poor and oppressed will be selectively overlooked in my zealous pursuit of knocking down the walls between church and state and making the church(mine, which happens to be the correct one, unless I switch like I have 5 times in the last 10 years.) master over the state. I am particularly against abortion and would like the government to outlaw it but I don't want the government involved with lead paint rules in public housing(for which funds should be cut) where many of these children being born ,as a result of abortion , would be forced to live . Although if I had my druthers, public housing and welfare would be eliminated so that there can be more room for walmarts(now the Waltons are great christians) In other words, I care about the child in the womb, but once he is born and I or my friends don't deem him worthy enough to be adopted then by me or others like me, then I would simply point him towards Jesus(with a few well placed bible tracts) as the one to look towards if he needs anything.
