How ridiculous! I too think that the Bible, along with some otehr religious texts, are required reading for understanding our culture and our place in the world. I have read the whole thing and I actually do refer to passages when they are thrown out to make a point. I like to know what people are referring to. Usually I find, like you, that they are unaware of the comlee context. I liked this post. Made me think. Thanks! I have not seen the bumper sticker but this makes me so sad and angry. How ridiculous!

Yes indeed the excuse of being ignorant is weak in this information age. But we also know that people are lazy. And in this age of social media, being cloaked in anonymity, people have also learned to speak hurtful things with no accountability. It's a double-edged sword really. Thanks for commenting.

It irks me to NO END when people take one single verse from the Bible and twist it around to make it mean what THEY want it to mean... doing what you said about completely using the verse out of context, with no regard to the entire passage as a whole. Ok, not just ignorant, but lazy as well!! Because Google is right there at thier fingertips, can ingorance about the following verses really be used as an excuse? -Jen .-= Jen @ NathanRising´s last blog...<a href="http://nathanrising.com/2009/11/the-curious-case-of-malfuntioning-body-wash/" rel="nofollow">The Curious Case of the Malfuntioning Body Wash</a> =-.
