DMV license photo won't be required for religious group

[MountainLaurel]

And it's not the religious group you think it is. . .

A handful of people who believe digitized photos on state driver's licenses could be the beginning of the biblical "mark of the beast" will receive special licenses from the Division of Motor Vehicles today.

Phil Hudok, a Randolph County teacher who previously refused to enforce school rules requiring students to wear bar-coded identification badges because it violated his religious beliefs, will be one of the first.

"We're a Christian, nondenominational scripture-believing group," Hudok said.

Hudok, pastor Butch Paugh and 12 others met with DMV Commissioner Joseph Cicchirillo in 2006 about the perceived problem. At the time, state officials were getting ready to comply with the federal Real ID Act of 2005, which would have forced states to share information about licensed drivers with other states.

2. Driving isn't a right, it's a privelage

If they canot abide by the requirements, they don't deserve the privelage.

Just thought I'd get in exactly the same argument I've seen used by Freepers against Islamic women and their religious requirements.

3. It's right there in 2nd Acts...thou shalt not have a digitized photo on your chariot license

They have the extended director's cut special edition Bible with added bonus material.

That's sounds like something the chimp would say.

"we're beliverators..."

6. That's fairly typical

And pretty much code for "we're too crazy for any mainstream (even the Southern Baptists are too liberal) denomination."

5. ROFLMAO.....Pastor Butch Paugh?

Why do these twisted Xtians always have such odd, funny names? Sort of like adult male sports figures having ridiculous-sounding boy names like Bobby, Ricky, Kenny, Billy, etc.... :shrug:
