The Steeple People are at it again.  And this time they have a Magic Man in the Sky.

Carl Gallups, Advanced Letter Scramble Champion

Gospel Grinder Carl Gallups, who wrote a book called The Magic Man in the Sky, is plenty tired of you folks making fun of him because he called President Obama the anti-Christ.  So he’s back, Baby, and this time he has proof!

Carl Gallups advanced the theory, based on Aramaic translations of biblical texts, that Jesus spoke the current president’s name when he prophesized in Luke 10:18 that he “saw Satan fall like lightning from heaven.”

According to the theory, which Gallups says he did not develop but promoted, the Aramaic translation of that passage would be: “I beheld Satan as baraq u-bama.”

Do you know what is sad?  It is sad when a full grown man does not recognize the word bar-be-que when he sees it in a letter scramble  game.  That is sad.

And, personally, I think the whole baraq-u-bama thing is a foretelling of the way Auburn cooked Alabama last weekend, but what do I know of the Anti-Christ and who he roots for in college football?  I confess that I know diddle squat about that.

Thanks to TexasTrailerParkTrash for the heads up.
