yikes, the bible is scary

http://www.churchhopping.com/ten-verses-never-preached-on/ Which only goes to show that historical* works are pretty fucked up. Or at least the bible certainly seems that way.

My question though, is why not build a speech around verses like these? No matter how much of a messed-up fundie some folks might be these days, you have to figure that most of their behavior is leagues better than what is depicted in these biblical quotes. Doesn’t justify some of today’s hateful ways in the name of biblical sanctity by a long shot, but it does provide a pretty interesting glimpse of what it could have been instead, or what it may have been like in the past.

So build a speech around a verse that says “god will send killer bears after rude children”. Spin it like a Christian tale of bad karma, perhaps.

What would you do with the more shocking biblical material out there?

*Relatively speaking. There’s a lot of room for debate with a statement like that, I know.
