Mathew 5:5 Blessed are the meek:
for they shall inherit the earth.

Everyone knows a whimp could kick a meeks ass!

One for the kids at Sunday school ?:

Ezekiel 23:20 (NIV) There she lusted after her lovers, whose genitals were like those of donkeys and whose emission was like that of horses.

serious? have to quote that one.

Mark 4:25
"For whoever has, to him more shall be given; and whoever does not have, even what he has shall be taken away from him."

This is Trumponomics 101. Completely fucked up.

"In the beginning...". Then the rest of the buybull goes downhill right after that!!!

Now that is funny!

I actually don't hate the bible. It's the people who use it I can't stand. For a ridiculous old book, it does have some good advice and moving verses, just like all books. My favorite would be

"Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil: for thou art with me" I just take lord and replace it with loved ones, or self belief, or whatever helps me get through it

Great comment Alyx !

@GrumpyCatDad I really like the Christian rock band Skillet. I do the same with their music, changing it to inner strength

"But if this thing be true, and the tokens of virginity be not found for the damsel: Then they shall bring out the damsel to the door of her father's house, and the men of her city shall stone her with stones that she die: because she hath wrought folly in Israel, to play the whore in her father's house: so shalt thou put evil away from among you." (Deuteronomy 22: 20-21)

Written by a cuckold obviously.

Solomon 8:8...."We have a little sister who hath no breasts. What shall we do for our sister on the day she shall be spoken for?"

Song of Solomon 8:9
If she is a wall, we will build a tower of silver to protect her. If she is a door, we will enclose her with panels of cedar.

I think I prefer Dr Zeus as a sacred book.

Ezekiel 23:19 I believe it was. “There she lusted after her lovers whose flesh was like the flesh of asses and whose emission was like that of horses.” ...dear penthouse... ? Apparently Egyptians are hung like donkeys and the lord in all his turgid wisdom wanted to divinely inspire the world to know it. Good stuff.

Here’s the whole thing verse 19-23

19 Yet she became more and more promiscuous as she recalled the days of her youth, when she was a prostitute in Egypt. 20 There she lusted after her lovers, whose genitals were like those of donkeys and whose emission was like that of horses. 21 So you longed for the lewdness of your youth, when in Egypt your bosom was caressed and your young breasts fondled.[a]

...still a better love story than twilight.

Ezekiel 23:20. Something we should read to the children.

Basically leviticus.

Psalm 137:9 "Blessed is he who seizes your infants and dashes them against the rocks."

Matthew 18:8-9
"Wherefore if thy hand or thy foot offend thee, cut them off, and cast them from thee: it is better for thee to enter into life halt or maimed, rather than having two hands or two feet to be cast into everlasting fire. And if thine eye offend thee, pluck it out, and cast it from thee: it is better for thee to enter into life with one eye, rather than having two eyes to be cast into hell fire."

This doesn't seem to be followed by any of the churches today.

None, I do not study or read the bible. I prefer Frederick Forsythe for fiction, and history or certain sports for non-fiction 🙂

I like the one that says "Jesus wept." It must be the shortest verse in the bible. There maybe is a cagillian sermons on just those 2 words. I've hear many of them.

If there really was a Jesus and he saw the world today I can imagine that he would weep and make that verse a reality.

Any verse that frowns on the gay community.

"I am the Lord thy god."

Jesus withering a fig tree for not bearing fruit out of season...as history it makes Jesus look like a total idiot. As metaphor/allegory/Parable you realize it's Greek educated authors creating a literary construct....so in other words, complete Fiction

There's that ruling that a guy can't enter the temple if he's suffered a mischief to his goolies. That does make me chuckle.

Gospel of John, Chapter 11, Verse 35.

And it’s the easiest verse in the Bible to remember.

am guessing it is only 2 words.

@Rugglesby indeed.

Genesis 9:17
Then God said to Noah, "Yes, this rainbow is the sign of the covenant I am confirming with all the creatures on earth."

They’re all ridiculous. How could you have a favorite? It’s mindless nonsense. I read every page and left Christianity.

Church:

“I do not permit a woman to teach or to have authority over a man; she must be silent.” (1 Timothy 2:12)

Actually I kind of like that one 🙂
