    Though you might have fun talking with someone, I promise you won’t change minds with these verses.

    I learned long ago that people don’t care what the Bible says. They only care what their spirituals leaders say.

    “I git what yer sayin’ but I just thank it is wrong to keeuhl a bay bee. If god didn’t want tat bay bee the mom wouldn’t uh gawt pregnant. Brother Dave is a great man and he reads uh Bible ever day. He said life begins at conception.”

    That’s what you’re going to get every single time. I promise.

      If only they were intelligent enough to recognize the protestant reformation literally happened because a bunch of people went “Hey! I don’t think we should just accept whatever some dude behind a pulpit has to say about our religion! We should just read the bible for ourselves and figure out what it says!”

      Fast forward and here we are, with a bunch of people who can’t even get their act together long enough to read their holy book just swallowing whatever some dude on stage tells them to believe and how to vote based on it.
