The second is related to the third (why care about taxes if you don't care about money, give unto caesar that which is caesars (also had to do with some temple/roman policy that isn't really relevant today)), in the gospels but the first was a separate point. It's a tiny little image, and a surprisingly good summary so I say give it a little leeway.

(Lot offered, but the crowd of anal-raping-heathens said no. Go figure!) Kill all the men, their beasts, and destroy their stuff. Then enslave all the women and children. Keep slaves for at least seven years. If they 'want' to be slaves, then keep them for the rest of their lives. Nothing says faith like killing your kid of a voice tells you to. Nothing says faith like wandering around the desert for years on end. You can legally kill your kid in public if they talk back to you. Women "serve", men "Minister" War is fine, as long as it's against 'Those Heathens'. Most of this is Old Testament, here are a few pearls (Not before swine) of wisdom from the New Testament. Rubbing mud in a blind man's eyes will cure the blindness. But only if you're Jesus. Evil spirits can be cast into pigs. (Unlike Pearls) Where they will commit suicide rather than live a pig's life. The people that follow you around 'religiously' will run when the cops show up to arrest you. If you speak out against the powers that be, they will crucify you. Tax men and prostitutes are socially equal... Well maybe I'll give them this one. (Sorry for the lack of references here folks.) Don’t forget:

Fuck salvation, fuck redemption. Sorry, but I was born perfect, have been that way, ever since...sorry.

Genesis 19:30-38 (King James Version) do you support incest? if god says it's okay to bash faggots and slam your virgin daughters, that must make it okay, right? @ j_bryon:

Homosexuality is a lifestyle and a culture, not a disease in a medical book. @ Gor: Good points. There are some people out there screwing the system and "cheating" their way around cost curves...but to don't let a few bad apples ruin the whole bunch. There are also A LOT of people who need a break and deserve our help. @ The Right Column: This uncanny but enlightening interpretation of Jesus' teachings is right on the money. I consider Jesus to be a great leader, teacher, and honorable person...but also a radical. This side does a good job of explaining what Jesus logically had in mind to be a "true disciple of God." In the end its all about faith and believing in the action of good deeds and good people. @ j_bryon: I consider your line of thought is directly related to “praying the gay away” since you consider it a disease and condition.
