  • @nooyawker You must live a very boring life.  I am surrounded by those kinds of people.

  • Were Christians still under Moses' Law, this would be a valid critique. It's depressing that the scriptwriters for this show have such little knowledge of Paul's letter to the Galatians or the Jerusalem council described in Acts 15; both of which deal with why these things are not part of the Christian covenant.

  • @andrebiggy

    Out of context? These were laws supposedly handed down by god in the same sections in many cases as the claims about gays. The bible is merely an old book written by ancient savages, with a few good ideas and a lot of bad ones. The only reason why some religions are as peaceful as they are now is because society in general has moved on in spite of said books.

  • Sorkin. Damned auto correct

  • This speech came from a viral email that was circulated in response to Dr. Laura Schlessinger. I'm not sure if the original author is known, but I doubt it was Aaron Working.

  • @andrebiggy i have a question have you read the bible? do you even know how many books of the bible that have been wrote? because all of these that he brings up are the real quotes and there are worse yet read your bible some time, you'll learn some fucked up shit

  • @andrebiggy -- You missed the point ENTIRELY--President Bartlet is simply telling us we shouldn't take the Bible literally.

    Now go post on Fox's Youtube channel.

  • I remember when this episode aired--I practically yelled 'HUZZAH!' at this scene.

  • This is the most absurd thing I have ever seen....taking bible versus completely out of context and turning them into malicious lies. Well I hope the writers of that show were so happy they were able to freely express their opinions...so much hate in this speech, it is so obvious of the little knowledge of the bible that it took to write this uncalled for and harsh scene haha.

  • @apophis08 I'm just saying I don't get thrilled seeing a TV character that always has well-rehearsed, crushing two minute speech and sharp comebacks ready to fire at anytime.
