No. The bible is complete horseshit, but most Republicans think otherwise and use it as a life guide, despite being 2000 years old and full of nonsense.
So is it good or bad to use 2000 year old intellectual concepts?
Or is it only good when you claim to use them?
The fact that most bible guided Jesus freaks are republican doesn't mean that most republicans are god squatters any more than the fact that most lazy cradle-to-grave government assistance leeches are democrat means that most democrats are lazy leeches.
