"Moore says, 'Down here, we all believe in God, guts and guns.' "
Which reminds me why I am an atheist. OK, so I suspect that I am not reallly an atheist. For instance: I had a nice chat with Jesus this morning. He said "Blessed are the meek" and mentionned a bit about peace and sacrifice. Silly me, but I used to always sort of associate my friend Jesus with God. But over the past few years it seems when people talk about God they are talking about some WarLordGuy I am not acquainted with. So I have to admit to people with BibleBeltTheology, when they ask "do you believe in God" that I am completely unknowing of their God, let alone believe in Him. I have learned to admit "No Sir! Not on your life Sir! I am an atheist Sir! ".
I believe in the teachings of Jesus of Nazareth :) ________________________________________________________________________________________________ 1 hour, 54 minutes ago By The Associated Press

They are offering a free handgun with every purchase. Through the end of the month, car buyers at Max Motors in Butler will have a choice - $250 toward either a gun purchase or gasoline. General manager Walter Moore says that so far, most buyers have chosen the gun, adding that he suggests they opt for a semiautomatic model "because it holds more rounds."
In the fine print, the ad on the website explains, "Check written toward purchase price" and also mentions, "Approved Background Check REQUIRED. " Moore says he suspects his "Free Handgun" ad will draw protests in some places. But not in Butler, about 100 kilometres south of Kansas City.
Moore says, "Down here, we all believe in God, guts and guns."
