Best Political Cartoons

That's a highly religious message, but understandable as well. I've heard stories like this when I was in catholic school. But it's a good message, essentially trying to say you have to take care of the least of us.

Then the king will say to those at his right hand, ‘Come, you that are blessed by my Father, inherit the kingdom prepared for you from the foundation of the world; for I was hungry and you gave me food, I was thirsty and you gave me something to drink, I was a stranger and you welcomed me, I was naked and you gave me clothing, I was sick and you took care of me, I was in prison and you visited me.’ Then the righteous will answer him, ‘Lord, when was it that we saw you hungry and gave you food, or thirsty and gave you something to drink? And when was it that we saw you a stranger and welcomed you, or naked and gave you clothing? And when was it that we saw you sick or in prison and visited you?’ And the king will answer them, ‘Truly I tell you, just as you did it to one of the least of these who are members of my family, you did it to me.’ Then he will say to those at his left hand, ‘You that are accursed, depart from me into the eternal fire prepared for the devil and his angels; for I was hungry and you gave me no food, I was thirsty and you gave me nothing to drink, I was a stranger and you did not welcome me, naked and you did not give me clothing, sick and in prison and you did not visit me.’ Then they also will answer, ‘Lord, when was it that we saw you hungry or thirsty or a stranger or naked or sick or in prison, and did not take care of you?’ Then he will answer them, ‘Truly I tell you, just as you did not do it to one of the least of these, you did not do it to me.’

It is verses like these that make me wonder how many fundies have ever read the Gospels?

Only the cherry-picked bits their pastors tell them to.

It may be worth noting that that passage is one of the ones in the Jefferson Bible.

A fundie is just a stubborn, bull nosed individual with little regard for view points separate from their own. Religion is simply the most common justification for their tightly held viewpoint and modify anything that disagrees with that viewpoint, either from within or without the viewpoints position.

[nickiknack]

Silly, fundies just cherry pick and follow the ones that go against a decent human being. And being a decent human being knows no religion in the end, it's a universal goal

No kidding!  You know all that talk about Sodom and Gamorah being the root of all our troubles?  Turns out they might be right;

Ezekiel 16:49

New International Version (NIV)

 49 “‘Now this was the sin of your sister Sodom: She and her daughters were arrogant, overfed and unconcerned; they did not help the poor and needy.

But thats not the king james version so it doesn't count for them.

[Vypernight]

Okay, here's the King James version:

16:49 Behold, this was the iniquity of thy sister Sodom, pride, fulness of bread, and abundance of idleness was in her and in her daughters, neither did she strengthen the hand of the poor and needy.

I found a site where someone addresses this.  The blog itself isn't bad, but read the comments to see some pick-and-choose Christianity:
