The White House has a weekly Bible Support Group meeting. So the cabinet can get nearer to Christ. They won’t address the gun-laws which result in the death of hundreds of children each year, but they want to be next to Christ. So they can have Jesus and Donald, kind’a ‘together’. Wow. One turning the other cheek whilst the other puts his hand up skirts to find the other cheek. That’s a kind of symbiosis in itself. Its the first time such weekly meetings have been held there for over 100 years.

And with good reason. Mainly that you really don’t want bible-bashers having any influence on the running of a country. Ever. In any circumstances. Whatever fucking version of the ‘bible’ they choose. Because then you end up with Iran. Or the Taleban. Or to a lesser but more common degree, with Ireland (both Northern and the Republic) and even parts of America itself.

Because the bible imposes restrictions that have no modern right to be there. Its regressive. Its a story-book of allegorical, fictional tales and once you start treating it with any kind of literalism then you’re fucked. And its also, in case you missed it, the most easily manipulated rule-book ever. It can justify almost any atrocity, from burning gays to Apartheid, from Female Genital Mutilation to ISIS, with anti-contraception, banning abortion and female repression all thrown in for free.

There is no mention in any bible of ‘Tottenham Hotspur’. And they’re God’s own team! So how valid can it be?

The dude who runs the White House bible classes offers great insights. He says that ‘homosexuality is not supported by the scriptures’. Like ‘flash player is not supported by Windows 7’. His groups are run by various ministers, but never by women. Again, incompatible, will not compute. Women are in charge of the children but NOT anything churchish or prayish. Its in the scriptures, so it must be obeyed.

As if the White House wasn’t fucked up enough.

Meanwhile, Manchester, last night, OMG. Amazing game, wrong result only because it gave Morinho the right to be even smugger than normal. If that’s possible. But the BIG GAME was at Stoke. And a brilliant and totally deserved result for my boys. Whatever anyone else says.

Tennis rained off agaiaiaiain! Terrible. I’m going to find a bible class instead.

Happy Sunday
