Sounds like a sermon Pastor Jeffrey Dahmer would deliver to his flock.
Oh, and don’t forget to send your daughter out on the streets turning tricks to raise money for Pastor Creflo Dollar’s Gulfstream Jet fund.
Wonder what ol’ Lev would have said about mother-in-laws?
Leviticus is just full of excellent commandments. Next time someone tells me teh gay is an abomination, I’m going to ask how many sons they’ve eaten today.
Every Sunday they practice ritual cannibalism. It’s a religion rich in eating human flesh. I’m just surprised the LORD! doesn’t include recipes.

Leviticus 26:29
And ye shall eat the flesh of your sons, and the flesh of your daughters shall ye eat.
Happy Father’s Day. Discuss.
Of course the rest of the pied piper troupe doesn’t remember! 24 hour moronic moonbattic memory malady!
This was a prophecy of the Roman destruction of Jerusalem and the temple in 70 AD. Before the attack, the Romans cut off the outside food and water supply and many starved. Those Jews inside the city walls ate each others dead bodies for food.
History… always missing to HA DUMMOCRETINS!
History tells us Christians escaped!
Seems the fuller passage is a warning of punishment if you don’t do what god tells you
“27 And if ye will not for all this hearken unto me, but walk contrary unto me;
28 Then I will walk contrary unto you also in fury; and I, even I, will chastise you seven times for your sins.
29 And ye shall eat the flesh of your sons, and the flesh of your daughters shall ye eat.”
There is a whole lot of God’s commands in the bible conservatives don’t follow, should they be punished?
@7 Um, I’ve been doing repeats for years. And you only just noticed?
History? History tells me you escaped from the insane asylum.
@8 I thought you weren’t Christian. You’ve denounced being a Christian before, and that you don’t follow the teachings of the Pope, the head of the Christian organization.
Like you don’t agree upon the ones he believes are angels!
“History tells us Christians escaped!”
What history? Nobody who was inside those walls at the time escaped, the whole city was butchered. Thats what the Romans did in warfare.
Christianity didn’t even exist as an independent religion until well into the 4th or 5th century. Up until that point, it was just a subcult offshoot of Judaism. It didn’t become a thing until Roman central influence on the Mediterranean cultures had collapsed.
There is a greater span of time between the destruction of Jerusalem and the rise of Christianity, than there is between Christopher Columbus’ first voyage and the present.
That has significance in the fact that it wasn’t until maybe 100 years ago, that 95% of the entirety of the worlds population was totally illiterate. Word of mouth is not a good way to transmit historical data, especially in the context of who it is that controls the language and the content. Without actual written contemporary account, it’s just a giant game of “telephone” that happens to span several thousands of years. There is no written account at all, anywhere, of the existence of Jeshua the prophet, except in the Christian Bible and the Qu’ran. The motivations for the creation of those documents are certainly and demonstrably self-serving, in the context of certain people seeking to maintain a ideological power base.
@7 As a child, I was subjected to constant repetition. I was forced to repeat oaths of allegiance to foreign dictators. I was forced to repeat “prayers” that were a fraud. Over and over. That’s the point. Create a rut in the brain that you can’t free yourself from.
@8 I thought you weren’t Christian. You’ve denounced being a Christian before, and that you don’t follow the teachings of the Pope, the head of the Christian organization.
PROVE IT!
Puddy has only said Puddy doesn’t ascribe to the man sitting in the Vatican.
The college attending vomit producer claimed
Apparently this vomit producer is very ignorant of many things. Today its ignorance is displayed regarding Christian History. So………… Puddy will use the Mormon site today! Why? Because how much y’all hate Mitt Romney! https://www.lds.org/ensign/1989/06/be-ye-also-ready-the-amazing-christian-escape-from-the-ad-70-destruction-of-jerusalem?lang=eng
The Christians paid attention to the signs Jesus gave before He was crucified by the crazed Pharisaical Sanhedrin. Crack open the Bible and read Jesus’ words for yourself vomit producer! It’s so sad that the vomit producer has no clue about Christian historical activities! Stay stoooooooooooooopid vomit producer… It’s your latest claim to fame here on HA DUMMOCRETINS. So easily proven wrong for sooooooooooooo long!
Next smelly fart from the vomit producer…
Oh really moronic one? Do you understand the Seven Churches in Revelation? What each church represents? Of course not because you are a Biblical idiot!
The rest is the usual esophageal diarrhea from the vomit producer. Much ado about nuthin!
@7 You have too much time on your hands.
@15 et al. – So here’s a guy who’s never proved anything in his life going around shouting at others ‘PROVE IT!” …
@13
The Nicean Council was in 324 CE, and Christianity was well established as a religion by that time.
It’s just a nit.
The Roman church was trying to take control and had started declaring various doctrines to be heresies in the 3rd century, so I think you could say that Christianity was independent of Judaism by that point.
Judaism cast the Christians out when Gentiles converted to Christianity and didn’t get circumcised, but showed up at the synagogue to worship. That happened pretty early. I don’t have a reference for it. But when Jews threw Christian Gentiles out of the synagogue, it became clear to the Romans that this was a new and distinct religion.
The Romans didn’t allow new religions. Christianity was not the only religion worshipped in secret in Rome. For example, Mithra was also worshipped there and in the same ways as Christianity. But the Jews shipping the Christians out led directly to the Roman persecution of Christians. That was happening already in the first century CE.
Also, I don’t know literacy rates of the rest of the world, but literacy in Northern US states was high for the last two centuries. Protestants, going back to Cromwell, were high on getting the Bible into the hands of commoners so that they could have a personal relationship with God, ie, without an intercessory. The Northern colonies were predominantly Protestant and those Europeans moved westward into new territories. In “Battle Cry of Freedom”, McPherson says that the average Union soldier could read and write, while the average Rebel soldier could not.
On a slightly related note, our sense of civil and legal rights goes back almost directly to the Diggers and Levellers, who were too radical for even Oliver Cromwell. Slightly related because they were at the forefront of pushing widespread literacy. Things didn’t end well for the leaders, but I love those people.
During the Reformation, there were groups who had as a motto, “Sola scriptura”, meaning “solely scriptures”. They were those who wanted to get back to first principles of Christianity, a Christianity stripped of all its popery.
Yes, much of organized religion has been about using the ignorance of the people themselves to keep the people enchained. But there have been bright spots in that night time.
In the end it all comes down to dream interpretation. That’s a great way to build a set of values. I dreamed a few weeks back that Billy Connoly was serving me a plate of enchiladas. Billy Connoly clearly represents Christ and my consumption of the enchiladas is my taking in of the spirit. It makes total sense if you eat enough ergot moldy bread.
@8 Cool claim only the city of Jerusalem nor the temple existed at the claimed time Leviticus was written.
It was well known in the ancient world that desperate hungry people who are starving sometimes eat other people including those in their family. In WWII children and others who survived the German siege of Leningrad sometimes ate mysterious meat. Most likely in some cases they were eating human flesh. It has happened in other sieges and the story of “Moby Dick” is in part based on actual events which included the crew members engaging in cannibalism. In this case the individuals who ate their crewmates probably were suffering a mental illness brought on by starvation.
@15 et al. – So here’s a guy who’s never proved anything in his life going around shouting at others ‘PROVE IT!”
See the Friday Night Comix Thread for the answer… Puddy isn’t allowed to thread pollute your your stinky pellets!
@16 Doesn’t the book of Acts say the apostles went in different directions to teach the teachings of Jesus? Not one went back to Jerusalem. They were busy establishing the seven churches in Asia: Epheusus Smyrna, Pergamos, Thyatitra, Philadelphia, Laodecia. Others went to Rome. Others to Egypt. Others to India. Maybe to France if you believe in the stories of Mary Magdelene.
Of course we are all atheists. You don’t believe in Zeus or Thor or Neptune or Augustus Caesar or Mars or Venus or Sun Ra. You reject a thousand gods yet you are bothered by someone rejecting a thousand and one.
So are you one of the folks shipping cattle a little more auburn to the Holy Land hoping for a red calf?
Are you one of those wishing just itching for a major war in the Middle East to start Armageddon? Rather sick if you ask me.
All based on the Revelation of St John the Devine. Most of the original is lost. Maybe written in ancient Hebrew or Aramaic. Coied by hand hundred of times. Translated into Koine Greek and then Latin and copied by hand many times and finally translated into Elizabethan English. All kinds of opportunities for error and confusion and comes out reading like a bad acid trip. The translations and copying may actually have improved the original. You can read a lot into what is there. Maybe it’s just about Rome…or it hasn’t happened and is always imminent. Big yawn!
@8 Cool claim only the city of Jerusalem nor the temple existed at the claimed time Leviticus was written.
You never heard of prophecy Mark Adams? Things to happen in the future if you disobey the Creator of the Universe?
Of course we are all atheists. You don’t believe in Zeus or Thor or Neptune or Augustus Caesar or Mars or Venus or Sun Ra. You reject a thousand gods yet you are bothered by someone rejecting a thousand and one.
Puddy now understands how you’d not understand God’s word, the Bible…
-3 “You shall have no other gods before Me.
-4 “You shall not make for yourself a carved image—any likeness of anything that is in heaven above, or that is in the earth beneath, or that is in the water under the earth; 5 you shall not bow down to them nor serve them. For I, the Lord your God, am a jealous God, visiting the iniquity of the fathers upon the children to the third and fourth generations of those who hate Me, 6 but showing mercy to thousands, to those who love Me and keep My commandments.
-7 “You shall not take the name of the Lord your God in vain, for the Lord will not hold him guiltless who takes His name in vain.
-8 “Remember the Sabbath day, to keep it holy. 9 Six days you shall labor and do all your work, 10 but the seventh day is the Sabbath of the Lord your God. In it you shall do no work: you, nor your son, nor your daughter, nor your male servant, nor your female servant, nor your cattle, nor your stranger who is within your gates. 11 For in six days the Lord made the heavens and the earth, the sea, and all that is in them, and rested the seventh day. Therefore the Lord blessed the Sabbath day and hallowed it.
-12 “Honor your father and your mother, that your days may be long upon the land which the Lord your God is giving you.
-13 “You shall not murder.
-14 “You shall not commit adultery.
-15 “You shall not steal.
-16 “You shall not bear false witness against your neighbor.
-17 “You shall not covet your neighbor’s house; you shall not covet your neighbor’s wife, nor his male servant, nor his female servant, nor his ox, nor his donkey, nor anything that is your neighbor’s.”
Acts 8:13-15
13 Even Simon himself believed; and after being baptized, he continued on with Philip, and as he observed signs and great miracles taking place, he was constantly amazed.
14 Now when the apostles in Jerusalem heard that Samaria had received the word of God, they sent them Peter and John, 15 who came down and prayed for them that they might receive the Holy Spirit.…
Acts 11:1-2
1 Now the apostles and the brethren who were throughout Judea heard that the Gentiles also had received the word of God. 2 And when Peter came up to Jerusalem, those who were circumcised took issue with him, 3 saying, “You went to uncircumcised men and ate with them.”
@25
ISIS has it right. All the statues must be hammered out of existence in accordence with prophesy. The Taliban had a good point in Bamyan too. It’s biblical. It says right there that they should never have been created. The Bible is the literal word of God as Piddles has argued so….get out your sledgehammer folks.
@24 Whether I believe in prophecy or not a thing has to exist at the time the prophecy is written for it to apply if the thing is destroyed.
I prophesize that Mt. Baker will erupt!
I prophesize there will be a 7 plus or even a 8 plus earthquake that will rock the Puget Sound region. It will ring the Space Needle like a bell! There shall be death and mass destruction. It could cut all the north south highways and even I-90.
The star Beetlequese will supernova and it will be very bright in the sky.
The sun will rise and the sun will go down.
Do you doubt my prophecies? Am I not a prophet?
@25 And would such a god allow man to split the atom. Devise E+MC(2). Why keep it a secret? Why would a jealous god share the chemical table. Share that soup and water would save more human lives that all those ever lost in war. What of zero. How about negative numbers. How about the world is round. How about electricity is caused by the difference between negative and positive charges. Why didn’t god bother to tell man that if you place atmosphere under pressure you can break nitrogen chemical bonds and use it to fertilize or to blow things up. Where is that in your good book? You enjoy the good stuff of modernity yet you live by an outdated book that if you tried to live by it as the people lived when it was written most the human beings on the planet would die. Most would slowly starve to death.
Your god has no power in this world or no more than RA. Who you don’t believe in making you and other Christians atheists. If there is a god you and I will find out soon enough. Whatever god is neither you nor I know and whatever God is not in the bible. The most truthful book is Job, but doesn’t that god make you uncomfortable? It doesn’t fit the rest of the bible. Of course to you it’s the literal word of god or the inspired word of god. To me it’s a beautifully written book on why good things happen to evil people. It’s the story of a man who is a rebel. To me it’s a book written by a man or men trying to touch whatever Yehwah is. Getting a much broader and meaningful view of existence as it is and the wonder of life. That it’s we human beings that make it meaningful and we can make choices to make our existence better or worse. The rain shall fall upon the good and the evil. The just and the unjust. Remember Job was a gentile and not under the ten commandments or the law yet he was gods favorite.
@27 Seems ISIS is making more than a few shiny shekels on all that hammering and all.
The Bible seems to indicate the Jewish tribes of that era were “Living Dead” and “Walking Dead” style zombies rather than the transitional brain eating zombies. Because of gaps in the fossil record the intermediate form, “Homo Zombus Celebrum”‘and the current “Homo Zombus Rrraur” is not well understood.
