Dolphin returns to my blog, today (I’ve recently started reading his feed), with a particularly interesting mention of that church under attack from the IRS.

Essentially, Dolphin wants to know (and for that matter, so do I), where the right-wing outrage is over this little occurence. See, during the lead-up to the election(s), especially the 2004 election, churches were outright endorsing President Bush, and quoting freedom of religion (and in some cases, of the press) against anyone who tried to tell them they could not legall remain a non-profit religious organization and support a candidate. The hubub died down. Now, when a church makes a sermon against the war, then get their charter revoked. Speaking out against war is a heck of a lot less politically charged than directly endorsing a specific candidate, and yet… yet it’s somehow worse.

…You’ve all seen the “WWJD” (What Would Jesus Do) bracelets, and the “WWJDD” (What Would Jack Daniels Do) bracelets. Well, I think we need a new one.. “WWJDIHHAFOJD” (What Would Jesus Do If He Had A Fifth Of Jack Daniels). Personally, I think he’d grab the bottle, take a good long swig, and then go start beating people over the head with it until they start to realize just how idiotic all of this is.

But then again, I think Jesus was the most under-stated bad-ass-kicker of our time, but that’s just me.
