Strangely, the Bible has never sprung to action to stop a school shooting.

Maybe every Bible needs a bullet-proof cover? What a collection of idiots these gop meetings are. Huckerbee will not appear without a fee of $15,000. Guess he left his God behind for the almighty $$$. Doesn't it say somewhere in their bible "Cleanliness is next to Godliness"? The dynasty guys, and $arah Payme always look like they slept in their clothes.

What did he attribute his son torturing and killing a dog to? He managed to hush that up, so maybe he should clean his own yard before telling the rest of us how to live.

Huckerbee's son was camping with a group of boy scouts. A stray dog had the misfortune to wander in to their sight. They strung it up, skinned it, tortured it. Huck's son was protected by his Daddy the preacher, of course. I don't know if it was the same son, or the other obese one who tried to board a plane with a loaded gun!! Strong christian, family values in the Huckerbee family. If they would fast for one day a month, they could feed a family of 4.

Unless they're planning to issue Teflon bibles, they ain't gonna stop shit.

Teflon is non-stick.

You might be on to something. Pretty sure there's a market for that somewhere. The domain name kevlarbibles.com is available. Just so you know.

Even a George W. Bush Version (it ends when the smiting does) would be thicker than a copy of Atlas Shrugged.

"This is your brain on religion."

I wondered what they were planning on making them out of ...

Ignorant.

I'm horrified that this guy is given a national platform to amplify his total ignorance.

A 7.62X39 (regular ammo for an AK47 clone rifle) will blast a hole through 1" steel diamond pattern deck plate at 100 yards. No matter how powerful you might think the word of god is, a book, is just different layers of paper.



I am beginning to truly believe GOP means goofy old pricks.

Tikki

No amount of stupid statements or stunts is going to get people interested in your show again. There is only so much one can do with a show about duck hunting.

Your show is about to go the way of Kid Nation and the Surreal Life.

Buh Bye Now.

When your 15 minutes is up, cozy up to Jeebus and the GOP clown car of fools, knaves and charlatans who have a willing and stupid audience built in at Fox...

The fact that people hear this can of beans speak and then nod their heads gravely and agree with him is pathetic.

Base on a complete misunderstanding of American history...

From a redneck TV Celebrity...

Yeah - that's gonna solve the problem.

They probably think it might help to stop that kind of fucking thing from going on

Of course.

Did the GOP book the wrong batshit crazy Robertson again?

...recalling when conference organizers asked him to come.
“I guess the GOP may be more desperate than I thought to call somebody like me," he said.

the gun nuts from pushing the gun issue and place pressure on the NRA to back off.

Those Duck Dynasty guys are delusional if the Bible is going to solve anything.

duck shootings?


rocktivity

All kidding aside, did anyone expect any other kind of speechifyin' from the Mullah Omar Appreciation Society?

is just delivering another scripted dialogue... it's what gets him the big bucks because it flusters up the progressives.

posing as rednecks?


The shit America laps up is amazing.

If they can prevent earthquakes.....

Religious folk never resort to violence...except when it suits their whimsy.

Regardless of security precautions, church-related violence has been on the rise for the past decade. According to Carl Chinn, a former Focus on the Family building engineer who tracks church crime and violence statistics, 115 attacks–63 of which resulted in at least one fatality–have occurred so far in 2012, up from 108 attacks last year and just 10 such attacks a decade ago.

Look at his numbers

year-fatalities-incidents
2009 54 108
2010 52 102
2011 49 107
2012 76 139
2013 45 132

the numbers explode in 2009

date back to one room school houses. Bibles didn't stop them.

who knew a book of mythical fairy tales would be so useful? Gotta get me some.

He doesn't actually expect me to read the damn thing, does he? That's what made me lose my religion in the first place.

He's just a sharp businessman who found a way get rich pandering to Bible thumping camo clowns with guns. They're his kinda folks.

"Blazing Saddles" they shot right through a Bible.

are probably smarter.

whole dynasty 'desthpicable.'!!

Bath, Michigan

From Wiki:The Bath School disaster refers to the series of violent attacks perpetrated by Andrew Kehoe on May 18, 1927, in Bath Township, Michigan, that killed 38 elementary school children and six adults in total, and injured at least 58 other people...

These duck fucks are the face of stupid!

Edited.

what a read - too many parallels to today's madness.

To hear MSM tell it, the school shootings only started in the past couple decades. But, he did use explosives, irrc. Still, it was a mass killing at a school. Hideous. I'm not longer shocked by much of anything. The violence is so prevalent in American society now. We are all horrified when it happens, but not shocked any more. I hope we never become numb to it and instead try to do something to stop as much of it as we can, but I fear a lot of people are becoming numb/desensitized to it.

but when is he going to "Love thy neighbor"? I guess he doesn't have a bible in his house.

Even before Robertson's comments, I found this show to be unwatchable

The only thing I can glean is 'They're so f*king stupid they make you feel better about yourself'

We've all seen the pictures of young students, their faces contorted with hatred, shouting abuse at African-American students entering previously segregated schools. I find it really hard to believe none of those white students ever attended church or heard the Gospel.

"Duck Commander Bulletproof Bibles" should fly off the shelves at campus book stores everywhere.

Hezbollah.

I also think we should have small altars in every classroom. We should begin every class, every day, with a pledge of allegiance, followed by an All Father, followed by the sacrifice of at least two goats. The first class every day, in every school, should be based on the teachings of wonderful and brilliant creationists. When we are finished with these basic necessities for overall righteousness and real American education, we should proceed to holding hands (but no boys and boys or girls and girls - that's bad, God says no) and chanting hymns - for at least a good hour, every day. Who needs recess when you have prayer?

Also, we should then make absolutely mandatory two hour classes in target practice using the most modern fire arms available. We've got to get our guns right to get our God right, you know what I mean? Jesus loved guns, so we should love guns too. If Jesus were alive today, I bet he'd have heat seeking missiles, bazookas, machine guns, grenades. He'd be the ultimate warrior. He'd blast the fuck out of those silly democrats and we could all have liberty, freedom, guns, and school under God.

Also, we gotta love our neighbors - but not if they're liberals or non-christians. If they are those then we need to kick them out of our Country and send them to Mexico or something.

Also, in honor of Duck Dynasty and good Christians everywhere, I hereby propose that we forget this silly notion of Separation of Church and State - and put Mike Huckabee in charge of education. He's a real smart man. That's the way to fix education, I tell you. Get it right with God. Get it right with guns. Get it right with goats. Goats. Get it right with goats. Well, time to get back to the farm. Scuse me.

(If I need the sarcasm smiley, you didn't read this)

insanity, the way he put it gives pause. "Love you neighbor." If Rodger weren't so focused on himself and competition. But we have a First Amendment and there can't be religion in schools. But teaching kids to love their neighbor rather than compete with them could have some value.

Do we have a :snark: smilie?

So that one, for me, is even funnier than it is for most people. I could tell you stories.

We have the occasional meetings of the Gideons (I might be spelling that wrong) - the people who are responsible for the bibles in pretty much every hotel room. For the most part, they are older folks and seem eager to get the meetings over with as quickly as possible. It often seems to me that it's a group of people that really can't stand each other. If you watch the eyes, they look at each other askance, even when they're smiling and talking about God.

I've never seen a more quiet, more stern, more unhappy group. Perhaps it's because deep down they know that, in the same drawer where they leave the bible, people leave condoms, guns and knives - I even found a porn tape in one once, someone was being funny and put it inside the bible.

Particularly since we see evidence all around us that so-called Christians cannot reconcile the murder and mayhem of the Old Testament with Jesus' peaceful New Testament messages, but thanks for playing (not!)

It is much harder to beat 60 people to death with a bible. As much as I hate to say it, he may be on to something. Na not really!

of people bullying kids who don't join in with their religious zealotry. In that case, a mob can tear a person literally to pieces. I would not put it past some zealots down here in the Bible Belt.

He should pay closer attention to the teachings of Pope Francis but with his closed mind that is not about to happen.

go in for Robertson's kind of knuckle dragging, bible thumping, snake handling, talking in tongues, the bible is the literal word from god, kind of southern religion. He would never hear the Pope, I doubt he even knows who the Pope is. His appeal is to the ignorant unwashed masses who have nothing but fear and hatred to hang on to.

President Lincoln told an Indiana Regiment passing through Washington less than a month before his murder

If he had met this bearded piece of swamp moss he would have had another quote - "What an ass".

You know, this sort of stuff:

"Then the righteous will answer him and say, 'Lord, when did we see you hungry and feed you, or thirsty and give you drink?
When did we see you a stranger and welcome you, or naked and clothe you?
When did we see you ill or in prison, and visit you?'
And the king will say to them in reply, 'Amen, I say to you, whatever you did for one of these least brothers of mine, you did for me.'

I guess when you're taught to "love your neighbor" a lot still depends on how you personally define "neighbor."

==========================

but expect the full round of stonings to commence in short order. Those homosexual children need to be stoned to death, it says so right there in Leviticus! And also them adulterators, and idolators, who have a god a little different than us, we need to stone them too!

Mosaic law, much like Sharia law, good for what ails ya!

If we just put in enough that each student is isolated from the others by a 2foot thick parapet of bibles, within a bible wall maze. Each Student only gets the map to their own bible hut within the maze, so none knows where the others are. This way any potential intruders are harmlessly trapped in the bible maze until police can arrive. Then Build a 4 foot thick bible wall around the exterior. If you are ambitious, add some bible traps, where if intruders chose the wrong verse, they are buried by a two ton pallet of bibles falling from the ceiling.

Bam. Bibled! School shooting problem solved!

-- George Carlin

Didn't work so well for victims of pedophiles in the Catholic Church, did it?

If the lack of state-sponsored school prayer is responsible for all the ills of the world since 1962, does that mean it was responsible for pre-1962 problems?

I've never seen anyone hide a Bible in a hollowed out gun, though.

What is it with bible thumpers named Robertson anyway?

But there is an extreme amount of violence in the Bible. Of course, they didn't have a Second Amendment right to carry guns, but they sure managed to kill a lot of people and then blame it on God.

That some people relate everything under the sun BUTguns to gun related crimes. As far as I can tell all these sprees only have ONE element in common.

Seems like a no-brainer to me.

our candidate to win 49 states

What does that say about the Republican Party?

If you took the name off the stories in there and didn't let people know that those stories came from the Bible, a lot of those stories might be banned for being so violent in some cases and having too much sex in other cases. Either way, without the name Bible on that book, it would probably get banned. And there is some of the most brutal violence in the Bible. No two ways about that. It would not stop school shootings. There would probably be more school shootings and other types of violence too.

Because everybody knows that Bibles are not going to be allowed back in school outside of an individual's right to carry one themselves. The Bible is not going to be used as some kind of textbook in the public schools.

So by making his asinine statement, the Dick Dynasty asshole can rest easy in the fact that the RW nuts and Xian zealots will not only agree with his unConstitutional blather, they will continue to be irate as nothing changes and the Bible isn't forced into the classroom. And that keeps them primed and pumped to be good little angry robots in the always-seething RW echo chamber.

One may as well complain that the sun rises every day.

I am so sick of Christians giving Christianity a bad name. Most of the Christians I know are tolerant, loving, caring people who really try to emulate real Christian values and are just as disgusted with the vangies as the rest of us.

The thing that bothers me most is America is the home of religious tolerance and the radical right dismisses every other religion. They pretend to like Jews only because it is bad form to say anything against them but, they still think we killed Christ and secretly hate us.

I love this...

Socially and, politically.

A Jindal-Robertson ticket.

Jindal & Robertson can be in sideboard...er...cabinet, I mean.

According to this reporter,

The last time I checked, Bibles are made of paper, and paper doesn't exactly provide the best protection from a lead projectile traveling several hundred feet per second.

These religious freaks are so odious it's unbelievable.

Oh, wait. That stops the radiation from the spacemen's blasters. Never mind.

Of course to do that they will need enough bibles to have about 3 to 6 inches worth of thickness as they need to be wrapped around each child.
Oh and they might wanna borrow the duct tape that should be used on Phils mouth to hold said bibles in place.

...when people lived in fear of G-d like they should.

- And everybody else too, if they knew what was good for them. Obviously some didn't.....

it would probably have the exact opposite effect.

Follow the money.

Yes, the kids will be so busy "fornicating" their guns will be forgotten!!

There have been reported cases of bibles stopping bullets on the battlefield - but body armor is probably a bit more reliable.

He dropped his camo trousers and took a big, stinky runny dump on it, and the crowd did rush to the stage and did taste thereof, and behold! It was revealed that it was verily not the uncleanness of voiding the bowels, but rather the purest honey and fruit of the wisdom of God.

I guess this dipstick would be in favor of every kid haveing a semiautomatic pistol and a Bible in school. Where does teh media find these idiots and why do the give them a speakers platform?

* paying taxes
* owning slaves
* rich people don't get into heaven
* marry your rapist
* mandatory beards for all men

Would give people something to throw at the shooters.

agree . Amen and Amen .

Yes, at least it is in whatever schools he attended.
