Hym "And then what they do is believe the narrative that is constructed around the text... In spite of the FACT that it is a manifestation of their own mind. So, it doesn't matter WHAT YOU SAY... As long as the conclusion is that the religion is both true and good. And it looks something like this:
Dr. JeepJorp "Flabbity florbity flip flop! Everyone KNOWS that flabbity florbity flip flop and that = the Bible true and good!"
Sheeple "Hey! I'm everyone! You're right! I know that, I mean, come on. Do you think I don't know that flabbity florbity flip flop? Everyone know it!"
Hym "And that's how Christians read the Bible."

Cranky child: "Are we there yet?!"
Parent driving (cheerfully): "Oh, no worries --- we'll be there in two shakes of a lamb's tail!"
Cranky child: "But how often does the lamb shake its tail?! Oh, sure --- a NORMAL AND ALERT lamb probably "flutters its little stumpy thing" quite regularly, but if the lamb is asleep or not feeling chipper, its behind-flipper might not move much at all, and so it might take HOURS for it to jiggle even ONCE, let alone TWICE!"

Shit-libs "NO ONE should be able to get a gun."
Hym "Yeah, there it is. Well, they can. They have a right to have them. He didn't do anything wrong UNTIL HE PULLED THE TRIGGER so there is no way to stop him from getting the gun. The only thing you can do to stop that from happening is by stopping yourselves from being a piece of shit. And you can't. It's so deeply embedded within you it's impossible. You're not EVER going to take the right to own a gun. Ever. It isn't ever going to happen. We all have a firm grasp of the causal chain leading up to the shooting. It isn't phantom craziness. It's your own cognitive dissonance that is the problem here. So... You know... Eat shit. Get shot by the people you bully and die."
