The Bible Tells Me So

Here's a great blog post from Dailykos. It just goes to show you that you can find just about anything in the Bible. And you can use scripture to justify just about anything if you see it that way.

For our Christian overlords who preach values and death at the same time:

Deuteronomy 24:5:
"If a man has recently married, he must not be sent to war or have any other duty laid on him. For one year he is to be free to stay at home and bring happiness to the wife he has married."

Check out that verse in all the different versions of the Bible here.
