A little-known Commandment

"Thou shalt not bear false witness"

Okay, so Roberts is a great guy if your a Christian Jihadist. But you have to ignore that rule. Because he's already a liar.

That's one commandment I try to live by. I don't want to live in an alternate universe while interacting with y'all, so I try to make sure the things I claim are true in my imagination AND on the ground on the planet.

This is a problem I have with the Political Christianics: They don't act like Jesus, and they pick, choose, parse and apologize their way through the Ten Commandments. And they say "They're Commandments, not suggestions," relying on the Power of Suggestion to insinuate by repetition their participation in a community of Faith.

But if they have faith, if they have trust in the Lawd (can't pronounce it respectfully, can't write it in English. Put a name on it, you gain control over it. It.) they'll wait for the WILL to be realized and stop voting. And I really hope the give back some of the extended life expectancy they've gotten from Science.

And I hope they give back the tens of Billions of DOLLARS Halliburton et al have swindled while recouping profits lost during Dick Cheney's tenure as boss over there.
