I had to share; I'm sure you'll know why. Even in the Bible itself it warns not to use the Bible as a Salad Bar, nor even as a Holy Weapon. How conveniently the vast majority of religious nutballs and their families want to forget that.

And the funniest part is right here:
But this is the covenant that I will make with the house of Israel after those days, says the LORD: I will put my law within them, and I will write it on their hearts; and I will be their God, and they shall be my people. No longer shall they teach one another, or say to each other, "Know the LORD," for they shall all know me, from the least of them to the greatest, says the LORD; for I will forgive their iniquity, and remember their sin no more.
-Jeremiah 31:33-34 (NRSV)
