Fear and loathing in So. Ohio
Seen on a sign in my little corner of the world:



Guess they're starting to realize a new day is dawning in America!

They supported *, the worst president in American history. I have nothing but contempt for these people who have misrepresented the teachings of Christ and supported war crimes.

9. If God truly is omniscient and omnipotent, then if Obama wins, it must be His will.

15. If you're a Calvinist, everything might be "God's will"
But other denominations teach that man has free will. So, even if the majority supports a war of aggression, for example, it might be seen as going against "God's will". Personally, I don't see anything particularly objectionable about that sign.

16. Isn't it funny
how so many people think that they live in the most backward, conservative area of the country when, really, we have it locked up here.

17. Maybe their will is not the "will of God"
and God's smacking them upside the head and saying "WHEN I TALK TO YOU, ASSHOLES, WHY DON'T YOU LISTEN????"
