Thread Name: Interesting bits of the Bible
Subject: RE: Interesting bits of the Bible
I don't think anyone here has said anything offensive. I took Les at his word that he/she was looking for 'interesting bits' that might not be commonly bruited about. I have one that I learned from a well read 'fundamentalist' co-worker. It had to do with not being too obnoxiously cheerful in the morning. He and I are early risers but if I haven't had my espresso in the morning I'm not the person 'my dog thinks I am'. He said it was in Proverbs that it is a sin to hale someone too cheerily in the morning.

Proverbs 27:14

On a side note let me recommend Scripture Markers. They are a set of colored plastic crayons which allow you to make visible marks on thin skinned bible pages. They son't smear and they are erasable. They're made by Sanford and I've only found them in Mormon bookstores (Beehive Books). I had a Mormon coworker who used them for marking up the National Electric Code books which are bibles in themselves.


All you have to do to be a revolutionary is examine the real world.
