I mean, think if only MLK were more like Mel Gibson?

I can’t think of a better premise* than citing a quote that is attributed to Jesus (with no context to boot). That sounds like primary source to me. Forget the beatitudes, I guess it’s time to get all medieval on them heathen asses. Not to let reasoned thought or nuanced theology get in the way of book sales:

It declares: “A Battle to fight. An Adventure to live. A Beauty to rescue. This is what a man longs for. This is what makes him come alive. There is something fierce, passionate and wild in the heart of every man. That is how he bears the image of God.”

And Twiiiins!  Or more lucidly:

Rut Etheridge III, a member of the Reformed Presbyterian Church of North America, said: “He has made God the idol of his own psychological, emotional cravings. This is why Wild at Heart is so dangerous; it leads hurting people into idolatry.”

* Okay, I can.
