In what they described as scriptural evidence of the right to bear arms, leading figures among the religious right gathered Wednesday to issue a statement arguing that Adam and Eve would never have been banished from the Garden of Eden if they had owned guns.
“Just imagine: If Adam and Eve had carried firearms and stood their ground against God, they would have been able to eat the fruit from the Tree of Knowledge in peace, and He could never have forced them to leave paradise,” said Pastor Hugh Peters of Houston’s Second Baptist Church, explaining how the entire course of human history would have been altered for the better if the first man and woman had taken the simple precaution of keeping a semiautomatic weapon at the ready for use during emergencies.
“God was trespassing on their property, pure and simple. He had absolutely no right to force them from their home. Had Eve been able to open-carry a handgun, maybe tying it to her hip with a vine or something, God would have known to back off.
This is one of the Bible’s most important lessons.”
Peters later issued an appeal to Jewish conservatives, insisting the Israelites would never have had to flee Egypt if Moses had simply been issued a sidearm with which to kill the pharaoh.
1. Israelites were enslaved in Egypt. Their being unarmed was indeed the fundamental enabler of their enslavement.
2. In Eden, God was supposed to be all-knowing (Omniscient) and all-powerful (Omnipotent), quite unlike any human ruler of any earthly place.
The two analogies do succinctly convey the reality that the gun-banning fascists (under the misnomer "Liberals") are trying to play gods and want to enslave the rest of the population. In reality, they are just too stupid to realize that pseudo-omnipotent State-worship (just like the ancient Egyptians had under Pharaoh) would enslave everyone, including the Pharaoh, his family and all the bureaucrats in the system, depriving everyone of the right to life, liberty and pursuit of happiness.
