Makes sense, if Yahweh was originally a war god:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yahweh_(Canaanite_deity)

It'd be like a story where the Romans stopped making offerings to Mars, started losing battles, and only started winning them again when the rites of Mars were once again practiced.

Basically throughout the old testament. The prototype is

1) Jews come to town.
2) Jews are enslaved by locals.
3) Oh Jews suffer.
4) Yahweh gets tired of torturing Jews via locals.
5) Jews kill all the locals.
6) Happy new lands and treasure for Jews! Thanks, Yahweh!
7) Wash, rinse and repeat in next town.

There is a chapter ( name escapes me at the moment ) that consists of nothing but this story told 4 or 5 times. It makes an important point, which is that history is written by the winners and that the biggest bullies invariably portray themselves as victims.

Easily, just tell them you found a great Bible story to share!

Yeah, you need any help?

There's more coming. I compiled a list of Biblical grue.

I seriously can't wait, please keep posting them here.

I love the cartoon, CD, but American Standard is right-- the king sprayed shit all over the parlor from his gut wound, then presumably shit some more as he died and his muscles loosened.

When his men found him later, I like to imagine he was covered in shit and chicken bones. (Remember, the knife couldn't be seen because it was buried so deep in his shit/gut). At first glance, one might have assumed the king shat himself to death.

And that's why gays can't get married. The Bible, ladies and gentlemen!

Right, in the part right after this, the two guards are standing around, wondering why Ehud and the king have been taking so long. One of them says, "the king must be covering his feet," a euphemism for dropping a deuce. Presumably they were smelling the shit from the king's massive gut wound.

It certainly worked a lot better than 'cameltoe violence porn'.
