This just helped me find my favouritest passage from the bible ever. I love deut so much!

25:5 If brethren dwell together, and one of them die, and have no child, the wife of the dead shall not marry without unto a stranger: her husband's brother shall go in unto her, and take her to him to wife, and perform the duty of an husband's brother unto her.
25:6 And it shall be, that the firstborn which she beareth shall succeed in the name of his brother which is dead, that his name be not put out of Israel.
25:7 And if the man like not to take his brother's wife, then let his brother's wife go up to the gate unto the elders, and say, My husband's brother refuseth to raise up unto his brother a name in Israel, he will not perform the duty of my husband's brother.
25:8 Then the elders of his city shall call him, and speak unto him: and if he stand to it, and say, I like not to take her;
25:9 Then shall his brother's wife come unto him in the presence of the elders, and loose his shoe from off his foot, and spit in his face, and shall answer and say, So shall it be done unto that man that will not build up his brother's house.

I wasn't sure if I should have cried or laughed when I saw this in the 'Science' section of the bookstore. I'm sure I don't have to point out the issue....

And then if you complain you're a "militant atheist" or a "science lover" or some ****e.


Just like all the militant chefs complaining when you put "cannibalism for beginners" in the cookery section.

the bookshop in the blanchardstown centre used to (and possibly still does) have a 'science and religion' section.

If you're talking about the small independent shop then yes, yes they did. The last time I was there they had the bibles in the same section as the science books :pac:
I think they're closed down now.

Man, be careful over there on the other side. That's how they rope you in .......... offering good deals on vasectomies (making you think they've gone liberal and all).
I sent someone over there once ................ and he was never heard of again.

Probably only a matter of time before Youth Defence set up fake vasectomy clinics...

I'm still thinking about those stubborn and ignorant creationists up the North.

It appears to be the justification on almost every image. "We know this is true because the Bible says so".

Why are there no dinosaurs in the bible:
Because Adam only named a few animals. And dinosaurs were probably called dragons back then. And we know that dragons existed because they're mentioned in lots of mythology and cultures.

They were fecking sneaky, those dinosaurs; no mention in the bible or other sources, no pictures, no cave paintings, no gnawed-on bones. Must have had cloaking devices.

I learned some interesting new "facts" there; once upon a time vegetarian T. Rex "liked pineapples" and Arrow Poison frogs were poison-less and therefore useless for enhancing weapons. All this good stuff was before Adam bit into that apple. The detail is amazing.

One for Atheists seeing as how we don't believe we'll be punished in the afterlife and how we don't take our morality from the Bible
