what the bible says about following your pastor
Nothing. There are no pastors or priests in the Bible. Only rabbis.
What the Bible says about following your rabbi is that you have to do basically everything he tells you and you’re not allowed to so much as eat or light a candle without his approval.
And just to remind you for those who have trouble with linear plot development, Jesus was a Jew.

10 questions to ask a priest
The Greatest Fish Story Ever Told
  1. Given that approximately 20,000 priests (2-‌4% of priests) have sexually abused church goers, especially male children, in the last 50 years: Have you ever molested or raped a parishioner?
  2. Have you ever known about another priest doing so and helped cover it up?
  3. Have you ever used church resources to give aid to a criminal? Or to commit a crime?
  4. How many violent crimes have been confessed to you? How many of the confessers were you able to convince to turn themselves in? How many times did you try?
  5. Who confirmed the Virgin remained one? Did Mary’s hymen somehow remain intact even after delivering the Christ? Why again does the Bible say Jesus had brothers and sisters?
  6. Given that Joseph spent his life married to a woman he never touched: Was Joseph maybe homosexual?
  7. Why aren’t Jews, Moslems, and pagans tortured to death by the Church anymore?
  8. Given the heavy-‌handed stance against condoms: How responsible is the Church for the AIDS epidemic in Africa? Millions of the dead? Hundreds of thousands? None?
  9. How could there have been 40 Popes who were never Pope?
  10. Have you got answers for any of these: Ten Questions to Ask Your Pastor, Reverend, Minister, or Priest?

bible belt
The martial arts rank below white belt. Whereas the white belt is indicative of a complete lack of knowledge, the bible belt is a positive indicator of a knowledge deficit.

bible study for gays
And likewise also the men, leaving the natural use of the woman, burned in their lust one toward another; men with men working that which is unseemly, and receiving in themselves that recompense of their error which was meet. Romans I 1:27
If a man also lie with mankind, as he lieth with a woman, both of them have committed an abomination: they shall surely be put to death; their blood upon them. Leviticus 20:13
Study question: How can you be such an ignorant, self-‌hating, delusional, jerk-‌off to be a gay Christian?
Before you give a pat answer don’t forget what Jesus said regarding Leviticus and companion texts–
Think not that I am come to destroy the law, or the prophets: I am not come to destroy, but to fulfil. For verily I say unto you, Till heaven and earth pass, one jot or one tittle shall in no wise pass from the law, till all be fulfilled. Matthew 5:17-‌18

why does not God just kill the devil
Because He wants us to suffer.
Am I the only one in the world who has read the Bible cover to cover?
Unto the woman he said, I will greatly multiply thy sorrow and thy conception; in sorrow thou shalt bring forth children; and thy desire shall be to thy husband, and he shall rule over thee. Genesis 3:16
Think not that I am come to send peace on earth: I came not to send peace, but a sword. For I am come to set a man at variance against his father, and the daughter against her mother, and the daughter in law against her mother in law. Matthew 10:34-‌35

The 7 deadly sins simplified for kids
Welcome to our Sunday School supplement.
You know how when you do a nice drawing or get a base hit and it makes you feel so good inside. Well, that’s called pride and it’s very, very wrong, Timmy.
Hey, Jenny, you know how your friend Christine has parents that don’t drink or fight in front of her. I know you wish your family was like hers. That’s called envy and God hates you for it. Jesus Raps with Kids about Sin
I know you’re starting to get urges Johny. It’s lust and it’s wrong. Just pretend you don’t feel it. Don’t explore it or ask about it—bottle up the feelings by force and never let them out or the Devil will make your penis fall off.
Eric, I know that boy pushed you down and took your favorite toy but you must forgive him. If you stay mad or try to get your toy back, that’s called wrath. It’s only for evil people to feel—good people always forgive, no matter what is done to you, just like the Lamb.
Michelle, honey, you know how you like to read books and play on the computer on the weekends instead of cleaning and learning to cook? That’s called sloth. And it makes the baby Jesus cry.
Well, Tommy, wanting one Matchbox® car is okay but wanting more is greed and if you don’t stop feeling it you’ll get glowing hot iron pokers pushed up your butt when you go to Hell.
Sarah, you can’t have ice cream. It’s not nutritious and you just had a big meal. Wanting more once your belly is full is gluttony. God had to kill His own Son because of little girls feeling that way.

questions for conversation adult bible study
Adult Bible study, eh? At last! The gloves can come off.
1. When Cain fucks Eve, his mother, over and over, does it turn you on? Discuss whether you ever wanted to fuck your mother or father and whether birth control would be ethical in that situation.
Annunciation 2. When God impregnated Mary, what physical mechanism do you think facilitated it? Did God, for example, become a sperm? Did He divide like a single-celled animal and turn into a zygote, thus using none of Mary’s genetic material and making Jesus biologically unrelated to Mary? Or did He physically insert His penis in Mary until He ejaculated? (Man made in His image suggests God has a penis.) Discuss whether Mary enjoyed it and if having an orgasm would make her somehow less pure.
3. King Solomon is described as the wisest King of the ages. He fucked thousands and thousands of women. Shouldn’t wise men today get to do the same without any feminist criticism?
4. God told Abraham to kill his son. Abraham obeyed because he was faithful. Would you kill your children if God asked? Or are you too wicked? Are you proud of Deanna Laney for stoning two of her children to death, and one into permanent brain damage, when God demanded it? Do you think it was God’s hand that acquitted her of murder? Do you think He’s mad that she didn’t manage to hit the last baby hard enough?
5. It’s obvious you don’t give a fig for yourself or you wouldn’t be here in Bible study but don’t you care that you’re raising your children to be confused, conflicted, and of sub-‌standard intelligence? Aren’t you willing to sacrifice a little of your terrified ignorance so that they have a chance at achievement and happiness?

bible meaning great blue heron
Heron v Christ Leaving aside the obvious joke about there being no meaning in those dusty sheaves to begin with, there isn’t any Biblical meaning to great blue herons because they’re a new world bird. So, like dinosaurs, the planets, microbes, electromagnetic radiation, etc, etc, etc, God and the various purveyors of his word had no idea they existed yet.
The altogether similar gray heron, ardea cinerea, is another story as its range does include most of the old world. Since the symbol of Christ from the chi to the rho became the fish, one supposes a gray heron might have ingested the host and perhaps even have been transubstantiated.
“Too little too late,” writes one Biblical scholar.

rick santorum is the devil
Gay Bible You’re reading the wrong Bible, my conflicted friend. The Good Book is quite clear in many, many passages that being gay is both wrong and offends God enough that He’s willing to suspend a certain commandment regarding the disposal of human life.
And I’ll tell you something else. I’m fucking sick to death of Christian queers. People like Santorum and Graham and such, yeah, I hate their guts but at least their faith is legitimate and grounded in some scholarship, albeit 1,800 years ignorant.
The Bible says gays are evil, God hates ‘em, and they should die. Any gay person who is a member of, or supports in any way, pretty much any of the various Christian churches is a self-‌traitor. And don’t give me any lip about the New Testament or Jesus’ love or the new moderate churches. Y’all have a pronounced reading deficiency—try Revelation 2:15,23 just for starters. You can’t dress up a viper in a tutu and slippers and expect it not to bite just because it looks a little prettier than it once did.
You might as well be a Jewish Neo-‌Nazi. It’s the same contradiction.

Jesus had high IQ
Stinky Jesus What?! Talk about grasping at straws.
What if Jesus was retarded? Seriously. What if He was? The Bible doesn’t say He wasn’t. His miracles are neither math intensive nor creative—give the blind vision, heal the sick. Wow, who would have thought of that? Some kinda genius.
His physical appearance has nothing to do with whether He was the son of God or not. What if He was butt-‌ugly? What if He had severe acne and body odor—stank like a bucket of dead crabs?
Would it change how you felt? The Bible says nothing about His physical form except that He was entirely human. Those are human traits and He could have had them. I think it’s interesting that you would care either way.
Don’t kid yourself, you’re no ascetic. You care because your faith is about as deep as you are and your worship is grounded in celebrity and loneliness.
