Sarah Palin promises that after she's done blowing up 3/4 of the world (it's God's will, don't ya know), and she's retreated to her Alaskan Redoubt awaiting The Rapture, she will ensure all 11,000 surviving Americans will each be given 2 dinosaurs. The dinosaurs will be produced by extraction from her magic hat, just like she did with Trig. Look, nothing up my sleeve - Dinosaur presto!
'Cause that's what Jesus would have wanted.
Why am I ridiculing her Religious beliefs? 'Cause she scares the crap out of me. No one who believes God wants them to bring about the end of the world should be one heartattack away from the Oval Office. This video does a good job of asking the questions we need to know about Palin's beliefs and motivations:
Speaking before the Pentecostal church, Palin painted the current war in Iraq as a messianic affair in which the United States could act out the will of the Lord.
...
Religion, however, was not strictly a thread in Palin's foreign policy. It was part of her energy proposals as well. Just prior to discussing Iraq, Alaska's governor asked the audience to pray for another matter -- a $30 billion national gas pipeline project that she wanted built in the state. "I think God's will has to be done in unifying people and companies to get that gas line built, so pray for that," she said.
...
But Pastor Kalnins has also preached that critics of President Bush will be banished to hell; questioned whether people who voted for Sen. John Kerry in 2004 would be accepted to heaven; charged that the 9/11 terrorist attacks and war in Iraq were part of a war "contending for your faith;" and said that Jesus "operated from that position of war mode."
As for the goofy dinosaur angle, according to the Los Angeles Times:
Palin told him that "dinosaurs and humans walked the Earth at the same time," Munger said. When he asked her about prehistoric fossils and tracks dating back millions of years, Palin said "she had seen pictures of human footprints inside the tracks,"
...
She combined her staff meetings with prayer sessions, Stein said, and upset the town's chief librarian by asking what the process would be for banning books. According to Stein, bans were never carried out only because "the library director was horrified and stood up to her."
