Man, and here I had thought at the time that the title of my earlier post was over the top, but apparently I was just a couple months early. I would advice these gentle folk that there is plenty in the Bible that they were not supposed to do, including:
- Slaughter all the first born.
- Harden thy heart against the widow and orphan.
- Commit adultery and covet thy neighbor’s ass.
- Slaughter thy brother and wander the land with a mark upon their forehead.
- Put thy God to the test by throwing thyself off the walls of the city.
Though the republic might thank them for the last.
via the godless apostropher.

Yes, unbelievably awesome. This will crack me up all day long.

Coveting thy neighbor’s ass is one of the leading causes of adultery.
Also, would the line “It’s a Ba’al market” be too awful?

I told my sister once to kick ass on a theology exam “Balaam-style”, so I’m all about awful puns.

If you’re gonna rip Eno for post titles, you oughta link to apposite lyrics as well:

In other contexts, My Life in the Ghosts of Bush would be apposite about now.

If I had ripped Eno for a post title, perhaps I would have, but the post title is a riff on the Bible passage.
