Piers Morgan: ‘It's Time For an Amendment to the Bible’ By Elizabeth Harrington December 27, 2012

(CNSNews.com) – After his gun-control views landed him on a petition to be deported from the United States, CNN host Piers Morgan is now contending “it’s time for an amendment to the Bible” because, like the Constitution, it is “inherently flawed.”

In an interview that was broadcast on Christmas Eve, Morgan told evangelical Pastor Rick Warren that due to changing cultural views on gay marriage the Bible, too, must be changed.

The British television host explained that a passage that states adultery is punishable by death proves the Bible is “flawed.” (Read the full interview here.)

“The Bible and the Constitution were well-intentioned, but they are basically inherently flawed,” Morgan said. “Hence the need to amend it.”

“My point to you about gay rights, for example, it's time for an amendment to the Bible,” he said.

Warren said, "No," there is “not a chance” of that happening.

“What I believe is flawed is human opinion because it constantly changes,” said Warren. “In fact, we do it every eight years in America. We have a -- we have a change in opinion; what was -- what was hot is now not.”

“And I willingly admit that I base my worldview on the Bible, which I believe is true, and truth,” Warren said. “My definition of truth is if it's new, it's not true. If it was true 1,000 years ago, it'll be true 1,000 years from today.”

“Opinion changes, but truth doesn't,” he said.

"We're going to agree to disagree on that," said Morgan.

Piers is real brave because he knows Christians won't behead him or blow him up, but he would NEVER suggest amending the Holy Queeran.

This is the basic outlook of “progressives”, which is based on chronological snobbery. Things which come later than others are not better by definition. People a hundred or more years ago would look at wonder at our technology, but would also often be aghast at our morals and behavior. Progressivism and Christianity are fundamentally at odds on many beliefs, but the core is that progressives have a religious belief in the perfectibility of human nature, and Christianity specifically excludes that belief.

Piers Morgan: ‘It's Time For an Amendment to the Bible.

Also Piers Morgan declares that from now on the value of pi is 3.14, and killer in the play The Mousetrap will be determined by vote of the audience at each performance.

Deuteronomy 4:2 “Do not add to what I command you and do not subtract from it, but keep the commands of the LORD your God that I give you.”

Rev 22:19 also has a little on that. Duck and cover.

We play right in to his hand by getting in a froth over every "over the top" thing he says. He's irrelevant, his shows irrelevant and they both should be treated as such."""".....

Right, and this NEEDS to be the LAST thread on Piers. IGNORE him.

“Drop him busk naked with no supplies, food, or survival essentials into the deepest part of that Amazon jungle.”

Yes, do that but give him a gun to protect himself. When he finally gets the nerve to shoot at the jaguar he discovers it is full of blanks.

Like we just “vote” on it and change it? Riiight. Piers has been partaking in Colorado’s new reefer laws, methinks.

What a fag. It is simple as that. He is a sorry excuse of man.

He should be on CNN 24/7. Americans know better.

Tell you what, Piers . . . you create the heavens and the earth and then YOU can make the rules . . . .

There is no good reason not to deport this stain on our soil. Tolerating his foul presence is the same as allowing visas to Muslim suicide bombers.

Piers is lacking credibility until he goes to Iran and lectures them on the need to amend the highly defective Quran.

Piers Morgan has officially proven with this drivel that he's an ignoramus, a moral coward, a hypocrite and an execrable human being in general.

This is not even possible. How exactly could you even do this? “Amend” history and scripture?

Liberalism is a mental disorder.

“Tell it to God and see if He’s interested, you mocking, scoffing, arrogant, atheistic piece of crap.”

I was out of town yesterday, glad to see you posted what I would have posted.
