Religious Prattle

I’m starting a new Category on the blog. This is one I’ve wanted to dig into for quite some time, but never made any traction. There are a lot of stories in the Bible that are beyond suspect. People take verses out of context. People make movies that leave out the embarassing parts. There’s a lot of ground to cover. Here are a few Bible topics I want to dig into.

• Two magical trees in the Garden of Eden
• Noah gets shitfaced and curses his son
• Genesis 12
• Sodom and Gommorah and Lot (banging his daughters)
• Moses kills in cold blood
• 10 Plagues are cover story for insurrection and pogrom
• Moses smashes 10 Commandments, slaughters his own Hebrews
• Israellites deceive tribe that begs for peace after rape incident
• More to come!!

I think I will start with Genesis 12, as it is routinely referenced in our current political environment, absent any context or anaysis. Most recently, it was cited by Ted Cruz who could not even tell what book or chapter he was referring to in a Tucker Carleson interview.
