And just so we're clear, modern Jews aren't so much about the stoning kids either.
Just so we're clear.
Yeah, the other thought I had, but didn't include in that previous post is that the Phelps' seem to have glossed over the fact that Leviticus isn't really speaking to them as Christians (what with the whole Jesus thing), and even modern Jews have decided there's wiggle room and space for interpretation of Leviticus through modern eyes.
(Aside to Seany - Debet is gonna come to my house for a week or so this summer and we're gonna stock up on snacky-type foods and take-out menus and watch WW from Pilot to Finale. You come with us.)
Are so. I saw it happen once. Right over there.
No no, that was just some Jewish kids getting stoned. It's a whole different vibe.

So would that be "bong hits for Yaweh"?
Pot humor x-post!

Damn it! I was struggling towards the stoner joke and couldn't...quite...get it...
Maybe I should cut down on the weed.
These people are incapable of correctly understanding their Bible.
Well, they probably understand *their* Bible, since they're probably using one of the heavily abridged, simplistically translated ones. That's mostly a comic book.

Ooooh! This summer is already shaping up to be pretty busy, but if I can swing it, I will. 'Cuz yeah.
(I'm ostensibly scheduled to come out to Western Michigan in the first week of August for a big family thing to celebrate my grandparent's 60th anniversary. On top of that, there's a strong desire to come just a little early and hang out with you guys and Tom and Sam while they're there. The only catch is that this year is already shaping up to keep me busy with work from July through the end of the year, so I'm not sure if I'll be able to make
any
of that happen, but I'm sure going to try.)
Of course, alla this happening in the movie thread, now I feel like I have to go watch
The Ten Commandments
and giggle at Charlton Heston's beard.
...Not that kind of beard! Although a double-bill with
Ben-Hur
would not be out of order.

Hmm... We seem to have transubstantiated Movies into Bitches.
