listen, if they can highlight the parts of the bible they like (stoning gays, women's servitude to men, slavery, many others, take your pick) and yank out the parts they don't (95% of the rest of the book) for the purpose of dividing this country into bullshit culture wars; then so can any reasonably well-versed and so-inclined preacher do the same with the verses that tell you to love your neighbor, not to fuck around on your partner, or those about Jesus visiting the temple and chasing the money-changers and merchants out with a whip. All it takes is someone that can quote their own book back at them that isn't also a giant piece of shit, and Talarico nominally seems to believe in the nicer parts of the Bible and not the batshit insane ones.

I can't read the man's mind, he might be a more sociopathic duplicitous piece of shit than Fetterman turned out to be -- but I'd certainly be surprised if that turned out to be the case, at least Fetterman gave off signs. I'm sure we can at least agree, that assuming he is what he seems to be, it would be better to have the aforementioned morons following Talarico -- and by extension, the nicer parts of the bible -- rather than hanging on President Shits-His-Pants every word, no?
