OMG! The Bible has some raunchy stories in it man!

2,709 230 April 20, 2009 at 07:01 PM in Humor
So I'm resting and relaxing today... Come home, take a relaxing shower (not a great day today) and decided to have the house nice and quiet and just read the Bible today...

So I just start out with Genesis - I figure, hey, its been a while since I made a quest to read the Bible front to back, so why not now.

I get to Genesis 19: 4-8 and holy crap... there is some taboo stuff in there I had completely forgotten about.

Gen 19: 4-8
Quote :
Before they had gone to bed, all the men from every part of the city of Sodomboth young and oldsurrounded the house. 5 They called to Lot, "Where are the men who came to you tonight? Bring them out to us so that we can have sex with them."
6 Lot went outside to meet them and shut the door behind him 7 and said, "No, my friends. Don't do this wicked thing. 8 Look, I have two daughters who have never slept with a man. Let me bring them out to you, and you can do what you like with them. But don't do anything to these men, for they have come under the protection of my roof."
EEK! (They were talking about the men in Sodom wanting to have sex with the very angels that came there to see if they were going to destroy Sodom).

edit: btw, this is NOT a gay bashing thread or meant to offend or ridicule gay people. I just thought the above was "taboo" - or at least taboo for me...

And then a little bit later...

Gen. 19: 31-38

Quote :
One day the older daughter said to the younger, "Our father is old, and there is no man around here to lie with us, as is the custom all over the earth. 32 Let's get our father to drink wine and then lie with him and preserve our family line through our father."

33 That night they got their father to drink wine, and the older daughter went in and lay with him. He was not aware of it when she lay down or when she got up.
34 The next day the older daughter said to the younger, "Last night I lay with my father. Let's get him to drink wine again tonight, and you go in and lie with him so we can preserve our family line through our father." 35 So they got their father to drink wine that night also, and the younger daughter went and lay with him. Again he was not aware of it when she lay down or when she got up. 36 So both of Lot's daughters became pregnant by their father. 37 The older daughter had a son, and she named him Moab; he is the father of the Moabites of today. 38 The younger daughter also had a son, and she named him Ben-Ammi; he is the father of the Ammonites of today.
I completely dont remember reading anything like this when I read through Genesis. Holy carp! The Bible is truly an interesting read at some points.

It's just so much fun to rile up the emotions of the people who are hardcore bible thumpers.
I will pray for your soul.

I also give you permission to use my boat during the Rapture

Quote from BayArea :
When i say the earth was created by God, i say it because i believe fully in it.

If you want to say it was scientifically created, than you have to have hard evidence, and every question has to be answered. Both of which are not available.

o wait..you do have your theory's tho...Scratchhead
laugh out loud



Just like his theory's,that number is made up
This is one of my main issues with 'hard core' zealots of any persuasion. You laugh at other's views and refuse to acknowledge that there is just an outside chance they are right, no matter what you believe. You expect anyone that doesn't follow the same god as you to automatically accept that because you 'just know' then it must be fact.

I understand what you are saying, that it can not be proven that it is God that created the world according to our finite knowledge. So at the same time, it can not be proven with our finite knowledge that it was not God. So what do some people rely on? Their personal experiences. I can legitimately and sincerely say that I have had a personal experience with God (specifically the God of the Bible), therefore I believe in Him. I know based off of different things that He is real. If I am correct in assuming, you have not had a personal experience, so at best you can say that you don't really know because you have not personally experienced God to know whether He is real or not. Or if you have had a personal experience with Him, perhaps there is some hurt that other people or situations have cause you to equate that pain with God, therefore it is easier to say that He is not real in order to find justification for your pain (if God was real, or if God was loving, He would not have allowed this, so I don't believe in Him because this person hurt me or this particular thing happened).

So all in all, I don't think its very fair that the people on this board make fun of those who have had personal experience with God. At best, if you were to be respectful, you could say that you don't know or you don't understand, but to purposefully belittle someone or make fun of them for their beliefs is not very tolerant or respectful.

PG, you and I had this conversation earlier, so you know my true opinions on this.

I'm just bashing on the people who as TS eloquently put are "'hard core' zealots of any persuasion". If someone came in here and started saying that for 100000% there is no god and it must be science, I'd be riding him like a rented mule.

I respect people like you and Jenni (though I do not believe in the same things), who came in said their piece and are not pushing their opinions onto others.

I'm sorry this convo started in CC's thread, because we completely took it off topic.

You seem to be sincere and do not want to take any one side. That is admirable but when it comes to the evolutionists theories, their proof is created by man and since man is fallible it is difficult to lend any credence to those theories. Since god is infallible we have a very good basis for us to go in his direction.

That could not be true because proving God fallible would negate all existence and we would not be here.

Maybe TS isn't one of God's creations Dontknow

Written by man but with God's words.

My secretary writes what I tell her to write but it wasn't written by her.

Jesus walks into the inn, hands the innkeeper three nails and says "hey can you put me up for the night?"



Jesus and Moses were sitting on a bench in heaven, remembering the good old days. They talked about what they used to be able to do and wondered if they still had their old tricks in them.
So, they decided to go see if they still had extra-wordly powers like they had so many years before. The pair went to the Red Sea and Moses raised his hands and parted the sea just like he had when he was much much younger.
Jesus, clearly amazed, asked Moses, "There's so much that I did, but what could I do now to see if I still have the power?"
"Walk on water like the good old days," replied Moses.
So Jesus kicked off his sandals and stepped into the water. He took three steps on the surface and then sank under the murky waters of the Red Sea. Dumbfounded, he looked at Moses and wondered what was the matter.
"Must be those damn holes in your feet," Moses responded.
