re: #240 Wendell Zurkowitz (slave to the waffle light)
This is what Dominionism is about: the notion that America enjoys God’s blessings because our laws reflect (their view of) His Divine Will. If we allow abominations like abortion, gay marriage, progressive taxation, subsidized health care, etc., then He will smite us with His Divine Wrath and it will be Our Own Stupid Fault.
We see how G-D smote the slave owners with His Terrible Swift Sword.
