Shut the F*** Up

Normally a comment such as my title would only be used by me in the most close of relationship with friends and almost always in jest.

Today my Friday lunch group was walking around Westwood and as we often talk crassly to one another, one of my friends said Shut the F*** Up while we were in Starbucks. I work with kids and so I shushed the friend.

But as I walked outside I came to a conclusion. If Pat Robertson can say that Sharon's stroke was caused because of the splitting of God's Land, then we can say STFU on the street. I am positive one expletive is not nearly as inflammatory and inappropriate as saying Rabin was assassinated and Sharon was afflicted because God is pissed off.

In fact, is it such a stretch to think that God from the heavens is yelling at Pat Robertson, "Shut The Fuck Up! You do not speak for Me. I am a loving and compassionate God and you are speaking the nonsense of evil."

Everyone, please take heed. It seems the Religious Right may have sold their souls to the devil. I wonder if they got more than a golden violin for their part.
