The Face of a Bigot

cal_thomas.jpgCal Thomas: On Faith at washingtonpost.com
Marriage was instituted by God (see Matthew 19:56 and Genesis 2:24, the verse quoted by Jesus from Genesis).

Astonishing, then, that people have been marrying since before Christianity even came about. Since before Judaism, for that matter. So… whose God? Cal Thomas is guilty of the same ethno-centric thinking we see among bigots everywhere. He’s incapable of believing in a reality where his own personal ideas about God and morality aren’t central.

What does this make him, brothers and sisters?

That’s right. He’s an idiot.

Say amen.

  1. It’s nice to see that most of the comments also agree that Cal Thomas is an IDIOT!

  3. It is, indeed.

    By the way, Matt, I’ve been meaning to tell you how much I enjoyed reading your blog about the Medieval Conference in Kalamazoo. (I’m still amazed that Kalamazoo is such a hot spot for medievalists!) I was amused by your observations about the differences between my country and yours.

  5. Thanks!

    I thoroughly enjoyed the whole experience! It is a little odd that Kalamazoo is a Medieval Mecca, but it’s certainly wetted my appetite for trips in the future! I re-read my posts a week ago and thought – they’re so bitchy, I’m such a stereotype ha-ha – but I’m glad you enjoyed them.

  7. Amen.

    I’ve heard Bush has no problem with gay marriage. He said if a gay and a lesbian want to marry together that’s perfectly OK ;-)
