Chris Matthews, Millstone Tied Around Neck, Dropped in Sea |
|
Edited on Mon May-04-09 05:55 AM by Stingo
The Philadelphia Inquirer published a column by an alum of St. Joseph’s University — the whine is about Chris Matthews as a commencement speaker when he also holds pro-choice views. The column’s author, Chris Majewski, finds biblical justification for Matthews’ punishment. He showed those Notre Dame alums a thing or two, eh? http://allspinzone.com/wp/2009/05/04/chris-matthews-millstone-tied-around-neck-dropped-in-sea/

1. I love it when they pick and choose which bible verse "supports" their view |
|
I can do it too Matthew 7-5 Thou hypocrite, first cast out the beam out of thine own eye; and then shalt thou see clearly to cast out the mote out of thy brother's eye.

From first through third grades, I attended Catholic school. We had our catechisms for religious instruction; that was all. During the fourth grade, I transferred to a public school. In honor of my first day, the teacher selected me to read the morning psalm (Psalm 23?). It was the first time I had ever seen a bible, let alone read one!

My god, if someone had tried to do that at my school. Mere Christmas carols caused the students to dub my high school "St. Francis on the Expressway."

9. A bible verse we all like |
|
Ezekiel 23:20 (New International Version)
There she lusted after her lovers, whose genitals were like those of donkeys and whose emission was like that of horses.

2. Lots of DUers complained when Bush would speak somewhere. Or Cheney. |
|
Or Hannity. Or Coulter.
Let them bitch. I hope this guy attends Matthews's talk -- he might learn something. At a University. What a shocking concept.
