Blessed Are The Bigots

Sorry about the longish layoff, Faithful Reader(s). Sometimes one is lucky in having enough work that the luxuries of life, like blogging and sleep, have to take a back seat for a while. Silly me, I was afraid that by the time I had a moment to post, there might be nothing going on worth posting about.

Fortunately, the morons of the world just keep chugging along, doing the moronic things that they do. Down in North Carolina, ABC affiliate WLOS-TV is reporting that the Reverend Chan Chandler, pastor of the East Waynesville Baptist Church, has given nine members of his flock an ultimatum: support George W. Bush, or resign their church membership. To their credit, many of the church's congregation are disputing Chandler's right under Southern Baptist bylaws to cast members out for political disagreement with their preacher; more than forty members have left East Waynesville Baptist in protest, proving once again that most southerners, and most Christians, are not as stupid or intolerant as the idiots who claim to lead them. Rev. Chandler has had no comment, other than to assert that his "actions were not politically motivated."

Blessed are the bigots, for they shall make asses of themselves.
