Ah, nostalgia humor from 15 years ago.
teachings of the Bible are so muddled and self-contradictory that it was possible for Christians to happily burn heretics alive for five long centuries. It was even possible for the most venerated patriarchs of the Church, like St. Augustine and St. Thomas Aquinas, to conclude that heretics should be tortured (Augustine) or killed outright (Aquinas). Martin Luther and John Calvin advocated the wholesale murder of heretics, apostates, Jews, and witches. - Sam Harris, "Letter To A Christian Nation"

I'd say that quote from Miss SC was not one of my state's proudest moments, but I'm not sure it stands out enough to count.
I'm not anti-Christian. I'm anti-stupid.

Our local church had a sign outside: ‘No Mucky Wellies, Please’, next to a basin and a hose pipe for rinsing them off. Not everyone complied - a faint odor of dung is still one of my memories of attending Mass as a child.

That brings back a memory for me. Grandpa had his work bib overalls and his going to town bib overalls. The going to town ones hung on a hook in the kitchen, always at the ready for a trip to the feed store and maybe stopping for a shot and a beer at Grawe's Tavern.
