Seriously, Sarah??

Sarah Palin was recently on the Bill O'reilly show asking why Americans are so afraid to go back to their Christian roots. She said, "Go back to what our founders and our founding documents meant -- they're quite clear -- that we would create law based on the God of the Bible and the ten commandments."

Too bad the Constitution doesn't mention God. The founders created a secular nation. The Declaration of Independence does make mention of the Creator, but if I'm not mistaken The DoI isn't the law of the land. Not only is the Constitution clearly secular, but I think Ms. Palin needs to take another look at the laws laid out in the Bible. Has she even read Deuteronomy or any of the Old Testament? Sorry, lady, but the Christian god is full of wrath and vengeance and would kill or maim people (even those that were his closest followers) at the drop of a hat.

I know that I shouldn't need to say any of this. This is all common sense. I challenge anyone who feels the same way as Ms. Palin to do what one of my favorite authors A.J. Jacobs did: just try to follow the Old Testament to the letter. I challenge Ms. Palin to try it. I also hope that she wants to part with all the money she's making now because the Bible is pretty clear on the rich and their entry to heaven. They can't get in.

And with all the extramarital sex and other damning behaviors the founders so enjoyed, I doubt they would agree with Ms. Palin. I'm sure they are rolling in their graves at even the thought of this woman having influence in America.
