Funny Bible Quote #53

Thou shalt not lie with mankind, as with womankind: it is abomination.

Neither shalt thou lie with any beast to defile thyself therewith: neither shall any woman stand before a beast to lie down thereto: it is confusion.


~ Leviticus 18:22-23, KJV

  1. Actually I don't think women can 'lie' with a beast. Well maybe Rush Limbaugh.

  2. I love how homosexuality is an "abomination," but beastiality is just "confusion."

  3. When you read English translations of things, this is what happens.

  4. I'm sure if I had the original Hebrew in front of me, it would be cleared right up...

  5. I'm sure if you had the original Hebrew, with the extensive connections between each word and words that share the same root, as well as all commentary from the Oral Torah, in addition to all words related to all of the words in gematria (numerology), then yes, you would see it more clearly.

  6. So homosexuality is okay, beastiality is not okay, and it's just horribly juxtaposed and mistranslated? Phew, load off my mind.

  7. I am not sure why Xians translated the second verse to end with "confusion", as this is absolutely not what the Hebrew word used there means. The actual word (tevel) means perversion or depravity, and shouldn't be translated as confusion. The word used for abomination is also rendered through poor translation, as "to'eivah" is explained in the gemara to mean "you are making a mistake through this act," and only applies to actual male/male anal intercourse, not homosexuality.

  8. So, confusing for me to lie with a beast... Confusing in the way that there are too many "beast" options available at my disposal- Dog, cat, beaver, bear?... Too much grey area. I get how that could be confusing.

    But, another woman with the same reproductive organs, DNA structure, and ability to tap into the higher cortexes of the brain not good. Wow. The world is my oyster.

  9. Actually... as far as I know there is not a single word about a woman lying with another woman in the Bible. It just says a man can't lie with another man. Lesbians seem to have a free-pass.

  10. Well, that would explain the Porno Industry pretty good. Interesting.

  11. Yeah, the whole "money shot" is clearly also a religious nod to not spilling your seed on the ground...

  12. And, there is that too.... How do you explain Scat then?

  13. But Rabshakeh said, Hath my master sent me to thy master and to thee to speak these words? hath he not sent me to the men that sit upon the wall, that they may eat their own dung, and drink their own piss with you?

    ~ Isaiah 36:12 (KJV)

    Behold, I will corrupt your seed, and spread dung upon your faces, even the dung of your solemn feasts; and one shall take you away with it.

    ~Malachi 2:3 (KJV)

  14. And, there it is.... Even scat has a biblical trace. Really, I do not understand why Christians are so fucked up sexually. Seems to me that the Bible provides them with a wide array of options.
