My God (I shall use upper case for Him from now on because that somehow makes Him seem more imposing) says all I have to do is find something in the scriptures that I can somehow reinterpret to mean exactly what I need to justify any of my arguments.
So, I hereby declare that I can certainly do that, because it says in the holy scriptures: “At least it’s good to be on the winning side.” (Mother Goose & Grimm, April 29, 2001, Panel 4)
Which I interpret to mean that I am right, therefore I have no further obligation to give proper reasons and any arguments against my opinion are completely invalid.
