| 703455 | 2008-09-08 19:32:00 | That's twice in 7 days I've been warned. Think it's time I started putting my views to the nutters I seem to attract see if they like it. If their prepared to peddle their drivle then they should be open to listen to other peoples views, it really winds me up | gary67 (56) | ||
| 703456 | 2008-09-08 20:28:00 | Hardly think it matters. They all feature a god that's every bit as petty, weak and delusional as mankind. Unless you would care to enlighten me. Does God actually show up that often in the bible? Sure, there's a whole bunch of people in there speaking about him, but apart from the beginning, he doesn't appear all that often. |

| 703457 | 2008-09-08 22:24:00 | After reading the bible I came to the conclusion that 2000 years ago people didn't know **** and would believe anything, Seems nothing has changed. The God as described in the the bible is a tiny ignorant man.......Which makes perfect sense as it is the word of tiny minded ignorant men. Replace, "After reading The Bible" with, "I became bored after reading, 'In the beginning God made Heaven and Earth,' and gave it away." You don't really expect anyone to believe that a confirmed agnostic and self confessed bastard such as yourself ever read past the first sentence? That is stretching credibility just a wee bit.:waughh: |

The point being that ants behave like ants,chickens behave like chickens, dogs like dogs, cats like cats....yet God, The supreme being and creator of the entire universe thinks and acts like a man? A petty vengeful insecure sadistic one at that. Worship that? No. |

| 703461 | 2008-09-09 01:56:00 | A Few of the Spiffy Tales in The Most Popular Book: 1. Because God liked Abel's animal sacrifice more than Cain's vegetables, Cain kills his brother Abel in a fit of religious jealousy. 4:8 2. God is angry. He decides to destroy all humans, beasts, creeping things, fowls, and " all flesh wherein there is breath of life. " He plans to drown them all. 6:7, 17 3. God repeats his intention to kill " every living substance ... from off the face of the earth. " But why does God kill all the innocent animals? What had they done to deserve his wrath? It seems God never gets his fill of tormenting animals. 7:4 4. God drowns everything that breathes air. From newborn babies to koala bears -- all creatures great and small, the Lord God drowned them all. 7:21-23 5. God sends a plague on the Pharaoh and his household because the Pharaoh believed Abram's lie. 12:17 6. God tells Abram to kill some animals for him. The needless slaughter makes God feel better. 15:9-10 7. Hagar conceives, making Sarai jealous. Abram tells Sarai to do to Hagar whatever she wants. " And when Sarai dealt hardly with her, she fled. " 16:6 8. " I will not destroy it for ten's sake. " I guess God couldn't find even ten good Sodomites because he decides to kill them all in Genesis 19. Too bad Abraham didn't ask God about the children. Why not save them? If Abraham could find 10 good children, toddlers, infants, or babies, would God spare the city? Apparently not. God doesn't give a damn about children. 18:32 9. Lot refuses to give up his angels to the perverted mob, offering his two " virgin daughters " instead. He tells the bunch of angel rapers to " do unto them [his daughters] as is good in your eyes. " This is the same man that is called " just " and " righteous " in 2 Peter 2:7-8. 19:7-8 10. Lot's nameless wife looks back, and God turns her into a pillar of salt. 19:26 11. Sarai tells Abraham to " cast out this bondwoman and her son. " God commands him to " hearken unto her voice. " So Abraham abandons Hagar and Ishmael, casting them out into the wilderness to die. 21:10-14 12. Dinah, the daughter of Jacob, is " defiled " by a man who seems to love her dearly. Her brothers trick all of the men of the town and kill them (after first having them all circumcised), and then take their wives and children captive. 34:1-31 13. After Judah pays Tamar for her services, he is told that she " played the harlot " and " is with child by whoredom. " When Judah hears this, he says, " Bring her forth, and let her be burnt. " 38:24 Exodus 14. Moses murders an Egyptian after making sure that no one is looking. 2:11-12 15. God decides to kill Moses because his son had not yet been circumcised. 4:24-26 16. God will kill the Egyptian children to show that he puts " a difference between the Egyptians and Israel. " 11:7 17. " The Lord is a man of war. " Indeed, judging from his acts in the Old Testament, he is a vicious warlike monster. 15:3 18. Joshua, with God's approval, kills the Amalekites " with the edge of the sword. " 17:13 19. Any person or animal that touches Mt. Sinai shall be stoned to death or " shot through. " 19:12-13 20. A child who hits or curses his parents must be executed. 21:15, 17 21. If an ox gores someone due to the negligence of its owner, then " the ox shall be stoned, and his owner shall be put to death. " . 21:29 22. If an ox gores a slave, the owner of the ox must pay the owner of the slave 30 shekels of silver, and " the ox shall be stoned. " 21:32 23. God promises to " send his fear before the Israelites " and to kill everyone that they encounter when they enter the promised land. 23:27 24. Those who break the Sabbath are to be executed. 31:14 25. God orders the sons of Levi (Moses, Aaron, and the other members of their tribe that were " on the Lord's side " ) to kill " every man his neighbor. " " And there fell of the people that day about 3000 men. " 32:27-28 Leviticus 26. God gives detailed instructions for performing ritualistic animal sacrifices. such bloody rituals must be important to God, judging from the number of times that he repeats their instructions. Indeed the entire first nine chapters of Leviticus can be summarized as follows: Get an animal, kill it, sprinkle the blood around, cut the dead animal into pieces, and burn it for a " sweet savor unto the Lord. " Chapters 1 - 9 27. " For every one that curseth his father or his mother shall surely be put to death. " Couldn't we try spanking first? 20:9 28. Both parties in adultery shall be executed. 20:10 29. If a man has sex with his father's wife, kill them both. 20:11 30. If a man " lies " with his daughter-in-law, then both must be killed. 20:12 31. If a man has sex with another man, kill them both. 20:13 32. If you " lie " with your wife and your mother-in-law (now that sounds fun!), then all three of you must be burned to death. 20:14 33. Anyone who blasphemes or curses shall be stoned to death by the entire community. 24:16 34. God tells the Israelites to make slaves out of their neighbors and their families. The " heathens " and " strangers " are to be their possessions forever. 25:44-46 Numbers 35. God tells the people to expel from camp " every leper, every one that hath an issue, and whoever is defiled by the dead. " So by God's instructions, the sick are abandoned and left to suffer and die alone. 5:1-4 36. " And when the people complained, it displeased the Lord: and the Lord heard it. " (He had his hearing aid on.) He then burned the complainers alive. That'll teach them. 11:1 37. Miriam and Aaron (Moses' brother and sister) criticize Moses for marrying an Ethiopian woman and thus breaking the law of God. But God makes it clear that his rules don't apply to his favorites, and he strikes Miriam with leprosy. Notice that only Miriam is punished, though both she and Aaron complained. 12:1, 9-10 38. The Israelites find a man picking up sticks on the sabbath. God commands them to kill him by throwing rocks at him. 15:32-36 39. Because of a dispute between Korah and Moses, God has the ground open up and swallow Korah, Dathan, and Abiram " and their wives, and their sons, and their little children. " Then, just for the hell of it, God has a fire burn to death 250 " men that offered incense. " 16:20-35 40. After God killed Korah, his family, and 250 innocent bystanders, the people complained saying, " ye have killed the people of the Lord. " So God, who doesn't take kindly to criticism, sends a plague on the people. And " they that died in the plague were 14,700. " 16:41-50 41. God shows us how to make new friends by saying : " The stranger that cometh nigh shall be put to death. " 18:7 42. God delivers the Amorites into Moses' hands. (You're in God hands with Moses.) So Moses does the usual thing, killing everyone " until their was none left alive. " 21:34-35 43. When one of the Israelite men brings home a foreign woman, " Phinehas (Aaron's grandson) sees them and throws a spear " through the man .. and the woman through her belly. " This act pleases God so much that " the plague was stayed from the children of Israel. " But not before 24,000 had died. 25:6-9 44. For impaling the interracial couple, God rewards Phinehas and his sons with the everlasting priesthood. 25:10-13 Deuteronomy 45. The Israelites, with God's help, kill all the men, women, and children of every city. 3:3-6 46. God instructs the Israelites to kill, without mercy, all the inhabitants (strangers) of the land that they conquer. 7:2 47. Anyone who will not listen to a priest or a judge must be executed. 17:12-13 48. " But of the cities ... which the Lord thy God doth give thee for an inheritance, thou shalt save alive nothing that breatheth. " Kill the old men and women, the sick and the dying, the blind and the lame, pregnant mothers, nursing mothers, infants, toddlers, and babies. 20:16 49. If a man marries, then decides that he hates his wife, he can claim she wasn't a virgin when they were married. If her father can't produce the " tokens of her virginity " (bloody sheets), then the woman is to be stoned to death at her father's doorstep. 22:13-21 50. If two men fight and the wife of one grabs the " secrets " of the other, " then thou shalt cut off her hand " and " thine eye shall not pity her. " 25:11-12 Joshua 51. God " magnifies " Joshua and promises to " without fail " drive out all the inhabitants of the lands through which they passed. 3:7 52. Joshua says that those who try to rebuild Jericho will be accursed by God, and will have to sacrifice both their oldest and their youngest sons in its construction. Well, Jericho still exists today, and is often considered to be the world's oldest, continuously occupied city. 6:26 53. Joshua and his army, per God's instructions, slaughter " all the inhabitants of Ai. " 8:22-26 54. Joshua hangs the king of Ai on a tree until evening. 8:29 55. God curses the Gibeonites to be slaves of the Jews forever. 9:21-27 56. God slaughters the Amorites and chases them " along the way " as they try to escape. Then he sends down huge hailstones and kills even more of them. 10:10-11 57. In a divine type of daylight savings time, God makes the sun stand still so that Joshua can get all his killing done before dark. 10:12-13 Judges 58. God appoints Judah to succeed Joshua. The Lord delivers his foes into his hands and another 10,000 are slain. In the process, they capture Adonibezek and " cut off his thumbs and great toes. " Nice guys. 1:2-6 59. " God " delivers " more folks into the hands of his chosen people. " And they slew of Moab ... about 10,000 men ... and their escaped not a man. " 3:28-29 60. Jael (our heroine) offers food and shelter to a traveler (Sisera, Jabin's captain), saying " turn in my Lord ... fear not. " Then after giving him a glass of milk and tucking him in, she drives a tent stake through his head. " So God subdued on that day Jabin. " 4:17-23 61. For murdering her guest while he slept, Jael is " blessed above women. " 5:24-26 62. 42,000 men are killed because someone mispronounces " shibboleth. " 12:6 63. After taking in a traveling Levite, the host offers his virgin daughter and his guest's concubine to a mob of perverts (who want to have sex with his guest). The mob refuses the daughter, but accepts the concubine and they " abuse her all night. " The next morning she crawls back to the doorstep and dies. The Levite puts her dead body on an ass and takes her home. Then he chops her body up into twelve pieces and sends them to each of the twelve tribes of Israel 19:22-30 1 Samuel 64. Under God's influence, the Philistines killed each other. 14:20 65. But later, Saul and his army kill all of those who had not already been killed. 14:36 66. Because Saul didn't kill everyone as God commanded, God changes his mind about him being king. 15:23-26 67. David and Saul have a contest to see who can kill the most people for God, and the women act as cheerleaders saying, " Saul has killed his thousands, and David his tens of thousands. " 18:6-7, 21:11, 29:5 68. David kills 200 Philistines and brings their foreskins to Saul to buy his first wife (Saul's daughter Michal). Saul had only asked for 100 foreskins, but David was feeling generous. 18:25-27 69. David spends the day killing more of those pesky Amalekites. They are completely wiped out again. (See 1 Sam.15:7-8, 20 and 27:8-9 for the last two times that they were exterminated.) 30:17 2 Samuel 70. Whoever kills the lame and the blind will be David's " chief and captain. " 5:8 71. David asks God if he should kill some more Philistines. God says yes, and he'll even help. So David and God " smote the Philistines " again. 5:19, 25 72. " David smote them there, and said, The LORD hath broken forth upon mine enemies before me. " God helps David slaughter his enemies. 5:20 73. " Uzzah tries to keep the ark from falling off the cart, and God kills him for it. I guess it was God's way of saying Thanks. 6:6-7 74. David kills two thirds of the Moabites and makes the rest slaves. He also cripples the captured horses. 8:2-4 75. " David slew of the Syrians two and twenty thousand men ... and the Lord preserved David withersoever he went. " 8:5-6, 14 76. David tells Joab (his captain) to send Bathsheba's husband (Uriah) to " the forefront of the hottest battle ... that he may be smitten and die. " In this way, David gets another wife. 11:15, 11:17, 11:27 77. To punish David for having Uriah killed, God kills Bathsheba's baby boy. 12:14-18 78. David saws, hacks, and burns to death all the inhabitants of several cities. Maybe this is what is meant by " the tender mercies of David " (Acts 13:34). 12:31 79. Absalom has his servants kill his brother for raping his sister. (This chapter, which includes incest, rape, murder, should be rated NC-17.) 13:28-29 80. Poor Absalom gets his head caught in an oak tree, and before he can get free, Joab thrusts three darts through his heart. 18:14 81. Amasa is viciously slaughtered by Joab, who " shed out his bowels to the ground ... And Amasa wallowed in blood in the midst of the highway. " 20:10, 12 82. " And they cut off the head of Sheba ... and cast it out to Joab. " 20:21-22 83. A famine is sent on David's kingdom for three years. When David asks God why, God answers: " It is for Saul, and his bloody house, because he slew the Gibeonites. " So God sent a famine to punish a kingdom for something that a former king had done. 21:1 84. To appease God and end the famine that was caused by his predecessor (Saul), David agrees to have seven of Saul's sons killed and hung up " unto the Lord. " 21:6-9 85. " He teacheth my hands to war. " Might as well learn from an expert. 22:35 86. " And the LORD wrought a great victory that day; and the people returned after him only to spoil. " 23:10-12 87. " Thou hast also given me the necks of mine enemies. " 22:41 88. The chief of David's captains killed with his own spear 800 guys at one time. 23:8 89. God offers David a choice of punishments for having conducted the census: 1) seven years of famine ( 1 Chr.21:1 says three years), 2) three months fleeing from enemies, or 3) three days of pestilence. David can't decide, so God chooses for him and sends a pestilence, killing 70,000 men (and probably around 200,000 women and children). 24:13 1 Kings 90. In David's last words, he commands his son Solomon to murder Joab and Shimei. 2:1-9 91. Solomon has his brother (Adonijah) murdered. 2:24-25 92. Solomon carries out the deathbed instructions of his father David by having Joab murdered. 2:29-34 93. Solomon justifies the murder of Joab by saying that Joab also was a murderer, and that the blood of Joab's victims " shall therefore return upon the head of Joab, and upon the head of his seed for ever. " 2:33 94. But Solomon is not done murdering yet. He has Shimei murdered -- or as Solomon put it, " The Lord shall return thy wickedness upon thine own head. " 2:44, 46 95. When the ark of the covenant was brought into the temple, Solomon killed more animals than could be numbered. 8:5 96. When dedicating the temple, Solomon kills 22,000 oxen and 120,000 sheep. All this blood and gore must have made God very happy. 8:63 97. Joab (David's captain) spent six months killing every male in Edom. 11:16 98. King Josiah is prophesied to sacrifice the priests of the " high places " on their altars. And he does so in 2 Kg.23:20. Note that this is a guy who " did what was right in the eyes of the Lord " (2 Kg.22:2). 13:2 99. Ever the playful spirit, God withers, and then restores, the hand of king Jeroboam. 13:4 100. There were these two prophets. The first prophet lied to the second. To the punish the second for believing the first's lie, God sends a lion to kill him. Get it? 13:11-24 101. To punish Jeroboam, God killed his son. 14:8-17 102. God promises to " bring evil upon the house of Jerobaom, " saying he will " cut off " anyone " that pisseth against the wall. " Then, after he is done with them, their dead bodies will be eaten by dogs (if they are city dwellers) or fowls (if they are country folk). 14:10-12 103. Baasha kills " all of the house of Jeroboam " leaving none " to breath. " This slaughter was done " according to the word of the Lord. " 15:29 104. God says that " him that dieth of Baasha in the city shall the dogs eat; and him that dieth of his in the fields shall the fowls of the air eat. " 16:4 105. Zimri kills everyone " that pisseth against a wall ... according to the word of the Lord. " 16:11-12 106. When Hiel rebuilds Jericho, he lays the foundation with the body of his oldest son and sets up the gates with his youngest son's body " according to the word of the Lord. " 16:34 107. Elijah kills 450 prophets of Baal. 18:22, 40 108. God delivers the Syrians into the Israelites hands, and 100,000 were killed in one day. Of those that escaped, 27,000 were crushed by a falling wall. 20:28-30 109. There was this son of a prophet that said to his neighbor, " kill me. " But the neighbor refused. So God sent a lion to devour him. 20:35 110. The prophet tells king Ahab that he, and his people, shall be punished for releasing Ben-hadad: " Your life shall go for his life, and your people for his people. " 20:42 111. Although Naboth was set up here by Jezebel to steal his land, the text assumes that the proper punishment for " blaspheming God and the king " is death by stoning. 21:10-13 112. " Thus saith the Lord, in the place where dogs licked the blood of Naboth shall dogs lick thy blood, even thine. " 21:19 113. God will " bring evil upon " Ahab and " cut off " all those " that pisseth against the wall. " 21:21 114. Jezebel (Ahab's " strange " wife) " stirred up " Ahab to " work wickedness in the sight of the Lord. " To punish her, God will feed her dead body to the dogs. (He also plans to feed the city folk to the dogs and country folks to the birds.) 21:23-25 115. Jehoshaphat " did that which was right in the eyes of the Lord " and " took " the homosexuals (sodomites) " out of the land, " or as the RSV says, " he exterminated " them. 22:43, 46 2 Kings 116. Ahaziah was sick and sent messengers to Baalzebub to ask if he would recover. God was jealous of the attention given to his competitor and tells Ahaziah that he will die for asking the wrong god. 1:4, 17 117. Elijah shows that he is " a man of God " by burning 102 men to death. 1:9-12 118. God sends two bears to rip up 42 little children for making fun of Elisha's bald head. 2:23-24 119. God instructs the Israelites, through the prophet Elisha, to implement a scorched earth policy on the Moabites. " Strike every fortified city and every choice city, and fell every good tree and stop all springs of water, and mar every good piece of land with stones. " 3:19-25 120. In a desperate attempt to halt the slaughter of his people by the Israelites, the king of Moab sacrifices his oldest son as a burnt offering. And it seems to have worked! 3:27 121. Elisha not only can cure leprosy, he can also dish it out. Here he makes his servant (Gehazi) and all his descendants lepers forever. 5:27 122. " So we boiled my son, and did eat him. " Women killed, boiled and ate their own children because of a plague that God sent, or as the Bible puts it: " Behold, this evil is of the Lord. " 6:28-29, 33 123. A man is trampled to death for disbelieving Elisha. 7:17-20 124. God sends a famine on the people that lasts for seven years. 8:1 125.

" And the dogs shall eat Jezebel ... and there shall be none to bury her. " 9:10 127. Jehu shoots an arrow right through poor old Jehoram's heart. 9:24 128. God has Jezebel thrown off a wall. Her blood is sprinkled on the wall and on the horses, by which she is trampled. Her body is eaten by dogs and all that remains of it is her hands, feet, and skull. God says that she " shall be as dung upon the face of the field. " 9:33-37 129. All seventy of king Ahab's sons are killed, their heads put in baskets, and sent to Jezreel.

Jehu, when he finishes his animal sacrifices, orders his men to " Go in, and slay them, let none come forth. And they smote them with the edge of the sword. " 10:25 136.

God strikes king Azariah with leprosy " unto the day of his death " for not removing the high places. 15:5 143. King Menahem rips up all the pregnant women in Tizzah " because they opened not to him. " Does God approve of such acts? It's impossible to tell from this passage; the mass murder is simply reported without editorial comment. 15:16 144. God sent lions to devour the foreigners in Samaria because " they feared not the Lord, " and even worse " they knew not the manner of the God of the land. " Well that'll teach them about God's manners. 17:25-26 145. An " angel of the Lord " kills 185,000 men while they sleep. " And when they arose early in the morning, behold, they were all dead corpses. " I guess they all woke up and said, " Shucks, I'm dead. " 19:35 146. Josiah, apparently with God's approval, kills " all the priests of the high places " and sacrifices them to God on their altars.
