The Phony Miracle of the Oily Bible

A strange case has emerged from Dalton, Georgia. One Johnny Taylor claimed that on 1/20/2017, the day Trump was inaugurated, oil stains began to appear on his bible. The oil continued to increase until he started collecting them in vials. Taylor's oil soon became the center of a cult, with people claiming it could cure everything up to and including cancer.

Then on January 10, it turns out that the bible has stopped producing oil. Then it emerged that Taylor himself was buying a type of oil from a tractor supply store. Anybody with a brain should see that Taylor was pulling a scam.

This shows how religious fundamentalism is connected with Trumpism. It is all about pandering to stupid, ignorant people who are ready to believe anything.
