News Flash: Curt Schilling is a fucking asshole. But in true Christian fundamentalist fashion, I guess you can be whatever you want as long as you apologize for it later.  From Curt’s pulpit/blog:

The only perfect human to walk the face of the earth died a few thousand years ago, that much I know. I am far from perfect and make more than my share of mistakes, which is something I have no problem with because that’s part of being human. However when my mistakes adversely affect other peoples lives, that’s a big deal. It was a callous, wreckless and irresponsible thing to say, and for that I apologize to Barry, Barry’s family, Barry’s friends and the Giants organization, my teammates and the Red Sox organization as well as anyone else that may have been offended by the comments I made.

Great, then. While you’re apologizing for stuff, why don’t you apologize to the entire world for campaigning for (and presumably voting for) George W. Bush? I mean, I realize Barry Bonds cheated at baseball, but is that really as bad as supporting the re-election of a traitorous, mouth-breathing war criminal to the presidency just because he says he digs Jesus? I’m gonna say no, and I’ll bet there’s a lot of innocent dead people who agree with me. How does your boy’s foreign policy fit in with your religious views, Schill?

Have fun walking Barry four times when he comes to Fenway looking for #756.
