The 53-year-old man told police that "God said she wasn't driving right, and she needed to be taken off the road," so the guy rear-ended the woman's sedan. Investigators determined the female driver "had done nothing wrong." (San Antonio Express-News)

Could someone please define for me what "driving like a Christian" constitutes, and how it correlates to what this loon did--that was quite "Christian" indeed.

I hope he gets charged with a hate crime. That would be great.

I know God works in mysterious ways but this one is not one of His, nor Hers either.,

SINCE WHEN HAS RELIGION CAME INTO ACCOUNT IN DRIVING A CAR?
Posted by: MONKEY JERK | Tuesday, December 02, 2008 at 05:48 AM
Did God say anything about a Palin run in 2012? I'm curious ...

Not another one god told me to story.
But I know where he is coming from.. I hear voices in my head that say, "Go ahead, have another beer." all the time.Does anyone else have that problem?
I betcha it's those damn lawn gnomes speaking to me in voices only I can hear.

Christian Driving From Example:
"Schwab told deputies he was driving faster than 100 mph at the time, Coleman said.
The impact caused both vehicles to spin across a median before they came to a stop along a barrier in the southbound lanes."

Rumor has it that Carrie Underwood's "Jesus Take the Wheel" was on the radio at that very moment.

When the voices tell me to kill them all, I try and ignore them.

Walk like an Egyptian
or
If God is your copilot, who the hell is driving?
or
When the Rapture comes, can I have your car?

Whole E. Cow, there is so much about this story that is great that I am simply in awe. For large swaths of the country this story could probably encapsulate modern life in America better than any novel or Frontline special. Bravo, Michael E. Schwab, 52, of Blooming Grove. Bravo.

I didn't know God still talked to people! Why doesn't he talk to me?

I have always maintained that if you are ever going to claim you hear voices, you need to claim the voice is that of God.
If you give the voice any other name, you are loony; but if you call him God, you are devout.

it is easy to tell if someone is not driving like a christian... they are not having sex with a child while merging

Lets see... Hearing voices in his head that told him to ram a woman? Crazy indeed. Take away his license.
Posted by: Joe | Tuesday, December 02, 2008 at 07:03 AM
LOL @ Cipher!
So...God told this guy its ok to be a Road Rage Assh*le??
Posted by: cherie | Tuesday, December 02, 2008 at 07:07 AM
Buddy, that's hilarious. I think the "run this woman off the road" revelation came after the "Those Jewish sons of bitches nailed me to a cross. Persecute them for thousands of years."

ASM,
I have that same voice about the beer...LOL. I realize I have road rage, but mine is more like yelling and cussing, I would so never run someone off the road...not even if the Beer God tells me too. WOW, what a psycho!

“God must have been with them, 'cause any other time, the severity of this crash, it would have been a fatal,” Coleman said.
Of course God was with them, telling Mr. Schwab what constitutes Christian-like driving.

Hahaha!!! Lou... "watch this Jesus left turn!!"
I remember that one.....

Jesus should have told this asskook to take his meds already.

I suspect that the woman's car simply had a bumper sticker that Mr. Bumpercar did not like.

Religion is a form of insanity - this story just proves my point.
Posted by: Rusty | Tuesday, December 02, 2008 at 07:56 AM
Wow, Bill, I've never heard it explained so succinctly before. Right on the head.
Posted by: Drake Timbershaft | Tuesday, December 02, 2008 at 08:00 AM
This story reminds me of the e-mail that makes the rounds every so often, pointing out things to say/do to keep work interesting. One of them is the end every sentence with, "according to the Prophecy". Apparently, this douche took it seriously.

Blooming Grove is a cute little town on the western edge of Navarro County in north central Texas. What I want to know is why he went to San Antonio to run people off the road? Waco is just down the highway about 30 minutes.
Posted by: jj2 | Tuesday, December 02, 2008 at 08:39 AM
Mook! I was thinking the same thing. She probably had a sticker that reflected another religion or maybe a pro Obama or pro Abortion sticker and he just went off the deep end and tried to rid the planet of one more Anti-Christian.
What happened to thou shalt not judge and love one another?
Posted by: cherie | Tuesday, December 02, 2008 at 08:48 AM
Schwab is a Blooming(grove) idiot.
Does cousin Charles know about him?
Posted by: A.V. | Tuesday, December 02, 2008 at 10:06 AM
I think this man should go to church and find out if God drives a car(what kind) and would God harm somebody or give them a divine ticket or a warning(your going to hell if you don't drive right. WOW. what a nut.
