The holy highway

What is wrong with these people?

The woman who came up with the concept of "Light the Highway" is a Texas minister named Cindy Jacobs. Holy highway?

She says she can't be sure Interstate 35 really is what is mentioned in the Bible but says she received a revelation to start this campaign after "once again reading Isaiah, Chapter 35."

Jacobs also points out that perhaps there is a link between the area near this highway and tragedies that have happened in history, such as the bridge collapse on I-35 in Minneapolis last August and the assassination of JFK 44 years ago near I-35 in Dallas. That's why prayer certainly can't hurt, she adds...


Well, as Rick Perlstein implies, if members of the religious right don't believe in paying taxes, how else do you conduct highway maintenance?
