You remember the United States, don't you? That's the nation of laws, not men. Ring a bell? Not to Rev Gomer:
"We really don’t need a lot of law if we’re people of morality," Huckabee said at the Thomas Road Baptist Church in Lynchburg, Virginia, according to a report in the Lynchburg News Advance. "There are only 10 basic laws that we need … the reason that the law is more complicated is because we try to find clever ways around those 10."
Bill Maher would disagree.
Additional reports at CBS News showed Huckabee taking his statement a step farther.
"I hope you know Jesus Christ personally…because the level to which he rules you and governs you, you need less and less of man’s law to tell you how to live and that is what our Founding Fathers understood and we must understand," he preached.
Rev Hick's comments come as no surprise. And I'm sure Jesus Christ will be right there to stop all those scofflaws who run red lights, hold up banks, harm children, torture people, interfere with our election process, and start illegal wars. I feel a lot safer knowing that.
