It's nice to be able to do the Christian thing and help out Richard (of RBB) by letting him post
here while he is having trouble posting on his bass bag blog.
Don't forget to follow my commandments, or you'll rot in Hell for eternity.
Here they are, just in case you've forgotten them...
|
1 | "I am the Lord your God, who brought you out of the land of Egypt, out of the house of bondage (I'm not talking sexual bondage in this instance). You shall have no other gods before Me." |
2 | “You shall not make for yourself a carved image, or any likeness of anything that is in heaven above, or that is in the earth beneath, or that is in the water under the earth; you shall not bow down to them nor serve them. For I, the Lord your God, am a bloody jealous God, visiting the iniquity of the fathers on the children to the third and fourth generations of those who hate Me, but showing mercy to thousands, to those who love Me and keep My Commandments. Okay, I admit that the jealousy thing is something I'm working on." |
3 | “You shall not take the name of the Lord your God in vain, for the Lord will not hold him guiltless who takes His name in vain. So don't say things like "Jesus Christ!" if you hit your finger with a hammer." |
4 | “Remember the Sabbath day, to keep it holy. Six days you shall labour and do all your work, but the seventh day is the Sabbath of the Lord your God. In it you shall do no work: you, nor your son, nor your daughter, nor your male servant, nor your female servant, nor your cattle, nor your stranger who is within your gates. For in six days the Lord made the heavens and the earth, the sea, and all that is in them, and rested the seventh day. Therefore the Lord blessed the Sabbath day and hallowed it. I do make an exception for essential services and supermarkets." |
5 | “Honour your father and your mother, that your days may be long upon the land which the Lord your God is giving you. Also, if you have a cat, don't let it rule the bloody place." |
6 | “You shall not murder, except if you're in the USA's armed forces - then you can just call it collateral damage." |
7 | “You shall not commit adultery. Well, not on a regular basis, but it is better than paedophilia." |
8 | “You shall not steal; as a general rule. Though it's less of a sin if you can get away with it." |
9 | “You shall not bear false witness against your neighbour. Actually, you sort of can; mostly. Just don't make it too bloody obvious." |
10 | “You shall not covet your neighbour's house; you shall not covet your neighbour's wife, nor his male servant, nor his female servant, nor his ox, nor his donkey, nor anything that is your neighbour's. I must admit that the ox and donkey thing is less important these days as most neighbours don't have them grazing in the back yard. Also the servants thing is a bit redundant - covet them if you want." |
Angry Jesus,
ReplyDeleteIf God is a jealous god...
1) it sort of hints at him not being perfect and
2) it gives the impression that there might be other gods. Otherwise it could be taken for granted that jealousy was just one of god's natural traits.
Richard (of RBB)...
ReplyDelete1) God doesn't like to feel he is being judged by his foul little creations that he could squash at any time and
2) you're bloody lucky that I'm letting you post here, so don't push it!
You make two good points Angry Jesus.
ReplyDelete1. What is perfection eg Jesus is angry but with out sin!
ReplyDelete2. "Ye are gods".
3.“You shall not murder, except if you're in the USA's armed forces - then you can just call it collateral damage."
In ww2 the Germans made women and children sit on their tanks in the hope the mustang fighter pilots would not shoot at them. They still did . Collateral damage I gues.
Jesus, thank you for covering for Richard.
ReplyDeleteI do notice that you never say anything mystical.
All the books I've read that proport to be your words say things like ... unknow to know me ...by the dark ladder .. get my drift. We now really expect these obscure thought provoking teachings. Please can you say something unfathomable and challenging.
"I do notice that you never say anything mystical."
ReplyDelete"Please can you say something unfathomable and challenging."
Okay, shouldn't be too hard, considering that I am the friggin' Son of God!
Now, let me see...
um...
To really know man, one needs to follow his footprints in the sand, to learn the pain caused by his inperfection. One needs to experience the doubt, one needs to live through the uncertainty a god can never understand. Maybe it is this journey, in all its
randomness, that makes my Father experience jealousy?
Inperfection?
ReplyDeleteShit! I meant imperfection!
Just a little imperfection.
ReplyDeleteLook Second, dad is a vengeful god and he doesn't like people being smart arses. Now go and say three Hail Marys and say sorry.
