A: Because obviously what Jesus would do is shoot them
Q: Why did the Arkansas house pass this bill?
There have been a number of articles on the book, the rallies, and the fact that evangelicals may no longer be a lock for either major party. As a long time independent (I switched from Republican to independent before the 1984 election after having been a Reagan activist in 1980), I am following the change…
I was going to write about his, but Laura has already done a good job. Like my dad the doctor taught me, there’s no need to make it either/or; it’s both/and.
The “which” is a list of bibliobloggers compiled by John Hobbins. Through it I discover that I am on the extended (not the top 50) list at Biblioblogs Top 50. Thanks to all of the above, and to Biblioblogs.com which provides a valuable service to the Bibliblogosphere.

Read some of the comments from other, not anonymous McCain staffers here.
. . . according to a letter on NRO reported in this MSNBC story. He gets worse as he runs. Too bad. In 2000 I supported him.
On the other hand, you had the case in Colorado a while back where an arm security guard shot and killed a murder who had already killed several people at a Christian dorm, and had come to the church to kill more Christians. The fact that someone at the church had a gun saved a lot of lives. I am not necessarily for taking guns to church, but I dont want killers to think of churches as a place they can go to knowing that no one else there will have a gun.
I’m afraid I’m into trusting God on what happens in church. I am aware of the case in Colorado, but personally I choose “no.”
On the other hand, the headline thing was too much fun to resist!
There have been numerous cases of shootings by intruders at churches, notably in Texas a few years back. Even Columbine had an element of anti-faith bias in the shootings as the shooters sought out “jocks and Christians”. Attacks against Christians, Muslim and Jewish places of worship are fairly common.
In a “right to carry” state, the prohibition against state-sanctioned permit holders having their guns when they attend church is nonsense. Is it more permissible for them to have a concealed weapon in a grocery store than in a church?
You know if you have cops among your church membership there’s a definite chance they’re armed even in services. Same with some military.
When you carry concealed, a lot of folk think it’s an all the time thing or useless.
Well, I see my commenters seem to be in support of such a law. Let me just say that neither your comments, nor the fact (which I already knew) that people do carry concealed weapons in church makes me feel more secure.
But the reasons for that would take more time than a comment, and my whole post was a snarky one liner!
