Speaking of Hypocrisy...

...and featuring just about my favorite Bible verse.

The Talent Show » Get Your Pray On: "...If some Fox News douche wants to insist on asking religious questions, tell him that your “relationship with the Lord” is a personal matter and bust out some chapter & verse :

“And when you pray, do not be like the hypocrites, for they love to pray standing in the synagogues and on the street corners to be seen by men. I tell you the truth, they have received their reward in full. But when you pray, go into your room, close the door and pray to your Father, who is unseen. Then your Father, who sees what is done in secret, will reward you.”

If you’re so religious, then heed the words of Jesus. The pundits and politicians who insist on mentioning their beliefs with every other breath, they’re the hypocrites. Are their embarrassing displays of zealotry really behavior that you want to emulate?"
