I should probably drink the rest of the Christmas vodka. It's medicinal, right?

You got vodka for Christmas? All I got were socks and gift certificates!

Medicinal just means it's three times as strong.

There is nothing in the bible about hating gays or telling friends you hate them for any reason.

This guy must be some other crazy religion I've never heard of.

I thought you didn't drink? Things really must be bad.

This comes literally one line after the bit about how it's wrong to sacrifice your children to Moloch.

When Jesus came to earth he looked at the Hebrews and told them that what they had been following was no longer useful (The Old Testament, or what Hasidics call Tanakh).

This site has a few examples of people trying REALLY FUCKING HARD to catch Jesus saying to hate gays, and failing.

Jesus said that he is the Word, and that meant many things, but in this context he meant to follow his way. Jesus didn't hate fags, and neither should any real Christian.

yeah i edit that for jesus shoving things in asses, it was a bad analogy given the context

Hey, you said Bible, not New Testament.

Guild · « **Reply #72 on:** January 20, 2010, 09:19:01 PM »

the bible cannot be broken apart; it is a whole element, and jesus trumps all of the other content, even later books

but i see why you are saying that

The things in Leviticus are pretty fucking funny tbh

Friday I am sorry for your lots

It is my understanding that Jesus didn't come to say "hey forget all that other shit" but more to be like "you guys are doin it a bit wrong here let me help." I could be wrong, though. Haven't read The Brick Testament in a while.

"I am the Way, the Truth and the Life. No man comes to the Father, except through Me."

That's Jesus saying that even the bible is just a toy compared to his life and example.

I have a better quote, but I'm having a hard time finding it.

Acts 15:5 Then some of the believers who belonged to the party of the Pharisees stood up and said, "The Gentiles must be circumcised and required to obey the law of Moses."

6 The apostles and elders met to consider this question. 7 After much discussion, Peter got up and addressed them: "Brothers, you know that some time ago God made a choice among you that the Gentiles might hear from my lips the message of the gospel and believe. 8 God, who knows the heart, showed that he accepted them by giving the Holy Spirit to them, just as he did to us. 9 He made no distinction between us and them, for he purified their hearts by faith. 10 Now then, why do you try to test God by putting on the necks of the disciples a yoke that neither we nor our fathers have been able to bear? 11 No! We believe it is through the grace of our Lord Jesus that we are saved, just as they are."

Ironically, I've only ever heard of Christians (and Muslims, but I'm not going to go near that topic) being like this about gays. The Jewish people I know are much more sensible about it all, even though they're the ones that still believe in the "stoning homosexuals to death" Testament.

The jews save their stonings for the recalcitrant children. Ever wonder why Woody is so ugly?
