As a Christian minister, I believe in God and the devil — and I know whose side today’s pious Republicans are on

Where is that devil and what is he up to? First of all, like in any good horror movie, the devil is always right here in the house. In the case of the current evangelical political machine, the devil is all too often wearing pastoral robes and expensive tailored suits. For many years, the evangelical church has pointed to the devil outside in the world, but the devil is the one doing the pointing. Secondly, the devil is always up to the same thing: creating division through fear.

    And then tells Jews that he’s gonna drown the Egyptians in the Red Sea, does it, and then yells at the Jews for celebrating.

    Celebrating their freedom… From the Egyptians… Who God manipulated… Did… Did God enslave the Jews??? Oh man, my people were chosen by God, but God’s a bitchy bully!

    Also, show me one non-biblical piece of evidence that my kind were ever enslaved in Egypt.
