lol- Bible vandalism.

Well, now that the general populace has received this information, I can only conclude the practice will minimized or stop completely.

MplsMedic: lol- Bible vandalism.



/Oblig

Go ahead and try that with the Qur'an, I dare ya!

Now how will sinners know what kind of disgusting, abhorrent behaviors to avoid? I mean, eating pork or shrimp is absolutely disgusting, as is the wearing of clothing with mixed fibers.

Also, the bible is the perfect word of God! It says it RIGHT THERE IN THE BIBLE!

////trolling, incase someone thinks I'm serious

It's obvious that some portions of the bible were altered. For example, the "let he who is without sin cast the first stone" part wasn't found in early copies of the bible - it was only found in later copies. So, I won't say the bible is flawless.

However, you don't get to pick and choose what to keep just because you don't agree with it.

BURN.

Yeah! If you wanna do that you gotta be Mormon.

You HAVE to, the darn thing contradicts itself.

I assuume you're an Orthodox Jew, keep the Sabbath and kosher, etc?

Hmm, I had no idea Ian McKellen did that. I've been ripping Leviticus out of hotel bibles for years. I smoked a few blunts with Leviticus from my home bible.

And if your hotel room's Gideon Bible has checked out, you're sleeping in Rocky Raccoon's bed.

Says who? I'm an adult, excuse me if I make my own choices about my religious beliefs. I don't recall the passage where God says you have to follow the bible word for word.

Is the ink ok for you? I wouldn't just go putting any old thing in my body. I remember hearing once that some people have died from smoking certain tree barks. Urban legend and all...

The Levites were a bunch of sick farks, smearing animal blood around during their rituals because it "pleased the LORD", but then decreed that women were unclean because they "bled" one a month, even though their wonderful yahh-way supposedly created 'em that way.

They practically invented Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder.

Some all-powerful and all-wise deity you have there, theists.

It's probably in Leviticus.

I doubt it's any worse for you than the carbon in the paper. In any case, I'm still alive 4 years later.

Unfortunately, due to my non-religious upbringing, I don't think I could find anything in a bible, much less a specific passage I want to remove.

I had an epiphany this morning, while looking through my GF's copy of Ayaan Hirsi Ali's book. I read about how angry men used the Koran to justify treating women like bipedal livestock with no human rights, and then used the same Koran to justify threatening the life of someone who challenged that practice (including stalking Ali and murdering a Dutch filmmaker she worked with).

I'm an atheist, and I see no solid proof of god's existence anywhere in the universe. But if "god" did exist, knowledge of its will/wishes would be far too dangerous a thing for humans to have access to. It'd be like the philosophical equivalent of an atomic bomb - the ultimate weapon against other people. Because as we see around us, believing you are working god's will justifies doing anything, no matter how horrific. And if god was truly omniscient and omnipotent, it should know this. I'm not saying this is a logical argument that all holy scriptures are lies, but it made me think.

Just as long as they don't touch the Paralipomenon.

Tell that to King James...

I only have a few questions:

When I burn a bull on the altar as a sacrifice, I know it creates a pleasing odor for the Lord (Lev. 1:9). The problem is my neighbors. They claim the odor is not pleasing to them. How should I deal with this?

I would like to sell my daughter into slavery, as it suggests in Exodus 21:7. In this day and age, what do you think would be a fair price for her?

I know that I am allowed no contact with a woman while she is in her period of menstrual uncleanliness (Lev. 15:19-24). The problem is, how do I tell? I have tried asking, but most women take offense.

Lev. 25:44 states that I may buy slaves from the nations that are around us. A friend of mine claims that this applies to Mexicans but not Canadians. Can you clarify?

I have a neighbor who insists on working on the Sabbath. Exodus 35:2 clearly states he should be put to death. Am I morally obligated to kill him myself?

A friend of mine feels that even though eating shellfish is an abomination (Lev. 10:10), it is a lesser abomination than homosexuality. I don't agree. Can you settle this?

Lev. 20:20 states that I may not approach the altar of God if I have a defect in my sight. I have to admit that I wear prescription glasses. Does my vision have to be 20/20, or is there some wiggle room here?

I know you have studied these things extensively, so I am confident that you can help. Thank you again for reminding us that God's word is eternal and unchanging.

We should just burn these books if we don't agree with them.

This deed makes the Gideon Fairy angry!
