Sparks, congratulations on posting so much self-serving rhetoric without actually addressing any of the relevant facts. Actually, scratch that, you attempted to address the relevant fact of the rubber gloves, but as you merely managed to dress up wishful thinking as intellectual discussion there's little to be achieved in continuing that line of discussion. As I said earlier, your view of events that day requires you to see things in a certain light and inconvenient truths aren't about to sway you.

As regards your Bible quotes, yes I do consider myself to be a 'true' Christian, though I wonder what you think that means. And as a 'true' Christian who has delivered sermons on those very words, on more than a few occasions, I can assure you that their intent was not to undermine civil authority and their context was not a baying mob.
