    Weird how they pull that shit out of the bible but never:

    “Blessed are you who are poor, for yours is the kingdom of God."

      They pull that all the time, when they’re talking about the excessive taxes that innocent small business owners are forced to dodge.

      Or this one:

      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 others. Truly I tell you, they have received their reward in full.
