By Kevin Parry I am not an expert on the Bible, but there are some things in that book that I find incredibly disconcerting, especially when it comes to God’s moral conduct. It is often said that a leader who is worthy of respect is a leader who sets an example. When I read through the pages of the Bible, I become more convinced that if the God of the Bible exists, he is the type of leader I will not follow, simply because he sets an example that at times I find morally objectionable.

I WILL BE AT THE DEMONSTATIONS COUNTERING WITH SIGNS OF MY OWN. CLEANING THE STREETS AFTER THEY LEFT.
THEY ARE NOT THE WESTBORO BAPTISTS. THEY ARE THE WESTBORO MOTHERFUCKERS AS I CALL THEM
