Dems fake religion

This, is palpably unsurprising. The fact that Nancy Pelosi does not know her bible doesn’t surprise me in the least. The fact that she would use a fake bible verse over and over is merely evidence of sheer stupidity on her part. At the least it shows a lack of respect for those she is trying to dupe.

(CNSNews.com) - House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) is fond of quoting a particular passage of Scripture. The quote, however, does not appear in the Bible and is “fictional,” according to biblical scholars.

In her April 22 Earth Day news release, Pelosi said, “The Bible tells us in the Old Testament, ‘To minister to the needs of God’s creation is an act of worship. To ignore those needs is to dishonor the God who made us.’ On this Earth Day, and every day, let us pledge to our children, and our children’s children, that they will have clean air to breathe, clean water to drink, and the opportunity to experience the wonders of nature.” ~cnsnews.com

No doubt she likes using this quote because 1) it’s delicious to use the bitter Americans own religion against them, and 2) she probably thinks that it gives her added credibility to appear pious to all those bitter Americans. If it weren’t for the fact that the bible verse is not in the bible it would be a great strategy.

I do recall incidents of Pelosi using a modicum of ‘religion’ in quotes at photo ops and announcements, and I suspect this is purely a strategic move.

Pelosi prays “all the time” for Bush to change policies:

“First of all, I pray for President Bush all the time, and I pray especially hard that he would sign the children’s health bill because it’s so important for America’s children,” she said on Fox News Sunday. “I pray that he makes the right decisions for the American people.”
