As I like to point out once in awhile, I don’t call people stupid without a good sense of justification. For instance, just because I don’t like Bill O’Reilly doesn’t mean I think he’s stupid (though he does say stupid things from time to time), so I’m not going to lob that accusation at him. Sean Hannity or Sarah Palin on the other hand…well, it’s proverbial candy from a baby, but it is accurate to describe those two as unintelligent (and Hannity is an outright liar quite frequently). But sometimes “stupid” just isn’t a strong enough term. At least, it isn’t for Ray Comfort:
It’s one thing to have a poor grasp on the English language, but then to have the overt insult go over his head is just monumental.

I’m disappointed that Leonie felt the need to apologise for Ray’s sheer ignorance of English. I’m damned if I would have.
Then again, the Big Guy Upstairs must have my number anyway, because of me not feeling the need to drop to my knees and tell Him how fantastic He is every moment of the day.
And as we all know, the all-merciful Lord of Creation only has a single punishment for all transgressions, from the trivial to the heinous. So I’m damned anyway for not being a hypocrite.
And no, Ray, that doesn’t mean someone who upbraids mainlining junkies.
“… I never meant to cast that aspersion upon you.”
Classic! I can still hear the “whoof!” as that went over Ray’s head.
