In "Prooftexting by David Bercot," the practice of selectively using Bible verses to support specific ideas, called 'prooftexting,' is compared to picking out chocolates from a Whitman's sampler—choosing only the ones that seem appealing and ignoring the rest. Bercot explains how this selective quoting changes the original meaning of the biblical texts. Just like sometimes getting a chocolate with an unexpected filling, using Bible quotes out of context can lead to surprising interpretations. He discusses how throughout history, people have used prooftexting to justify their own ideas and beliefs instead of following the true messages of the Bible. Bercot uses easy-to-understand metaphors to point out the risks of this approach in both understanding and teaching religious texts.
