If you turn to the Bible — Isaiah Chapter 35, Verse 8 — you will see a passage that in part says, “A highway shall be there, and a road, and it shall be called the Highway of Holiness.”
Now, is it possible that this “highway” mentioned in Chapter 35 is actually Interstate 35 that runs through six U.S. states, from southern Texas to northern Minnesota? Some Christians have faith that is indeed the case.
Really? The Highway of Holiness?! More like the Highway to Hell, especially during rush hour. Pardon me while I fall on the floor and laugh my butt off.
An IQ test measures the extent to which an individual can think in the abstract. These bible-literalists are merely the protestant equivalent of the catholic virgin-in-the-burned-tortilla believers. In either case, they rarely fail to entertain.
Well, they may be right! I know every time I am forced to drive on that godforsaken highway, I find myself praying I make it to my destination in one piece.
I shouldn’t have read that story right before bed. It gave me a huge case of the giggles. :lol:
