Sarah Palin: God Wrote on His Hand Too! (Yeah, She said it.)

[thedeityofthemind93]

The fact that people cheered her is sad...

[zeldaofarel]

All that she needs to say is that if English was good enough for Jesus...

[truffyt]

Ehm, making up bogus verses for the Bible? I think you can go to hell for doing those dumb things...

[ProudAthiest2]

And she was running for Vice President of the USA.

Palm 666: "And God did taketh thine Bic Click, and he did click upon it, and it was satisfying and good, and he did scrawn upon his most holy of outstretched digits, and spoketh that if it is good and noble enough for that which is Palin, then,yeah, for God sake don't you judgeth mine holy buttox." (put to the beat of the Beastie Boys "Sabotage")

So when I failed that test on Greek lore my freshman year of high school for writing a term on my hand, that was wrong of the teacher, because God did it too?

Well, I can't wait to bring this to the attention of the SAT board.

[Sean1Sullivan]

Can I use this excuse to cheat in school?

[SocialistCatgirl]

Oh, who cares? Dopey won't ever make the Presidency (hell, she didn't even make it through a gubernatorial term), so let her run around saying and doing whatever she pleases. She's only taken seriously by a very small portion of the Conservative base these days anyway.

That quotation is in the Bible, at Isaiah 49:16; it's genuine. If people couldn't find it, maybe it was quoted in a way that combined different translations. Here it is in the Authorised (AKA King James) Version: "Behold, I have graven thee [= Jerusalem] upon the palms of [my] hands; thy walls [are] continually before me."

SP appears to be quoting the 1984 New International Version almost word for word; it has "hands", where she says "hand". STM she wins that one, hands down, as it were.

@5355vbxjbj76rvn "hands" here is figurative. God (I'm an atheist but i will indulge you) has no form therefore has no hands. Sometimes you should consider rereading the Bible with a not-so-literal approach.

@drvowel

## Of course it's figurative LOL. The OT is full of figurative language for God - all I'm concerned to do is to point out that, at least on this occasion, SP was correct, in referring to a verse that does exist; even if her listeners did not recognise it. Since she comes in for a lot of criticism, it seemed only fair to point out that, at least on this occasion, she knew she what she was talking about. Even a stopped clock is right twice a day.

You can't cure stupid. Befitting a flaming idiot to represent a stupid America.

[discgolfer123]

@WinterHaven If you think Sarah Palin actually represents the majority of americans than you belong in the demographic no child left behind caters to.

[scitzz]

Proof of DE evolution!
