feel like saying again;
bible has been heavily edited over the centuries by whoever for whatever reason (red pen of god?)
so to take literally something that was written two thousand years ago and fucked with ever scince is like taking every bit of advice youve been given as gospel.
ever said to yourself "did i really say that?"
progress and learning, one of mankinds core attributes is totally negated by getting literal with the bible, or koran, or mad magazine etc.

now bow down and worship at my sandalled toe little humans.
i (like a few others) am a very vengeful god and i demand homage
(or i will dissapear in a puff of logic from lack of beleivers)
