    Why Does The Bible Instruct "Believers" To Pluck Out Their Eyes

    We know that primitive cults like Ultra-Orthodox Talmudism and Talibanism demand that women dress up in many layers of stinky clothing so as not to distract males for their rigorous schedule of worshipping Yahweh and Allah, two of the most insecure deities in primitive man's history of making up shit. But why would Yahweh and or Jesus, ask "believers" to take out their God-given eyeballs? In a sense isn't that what all "believers" do even without that horrible physical commandment?

    Its just a verse that tells you how important it is to not go to far with lust,imo.mis directed lust can do more than pluck out your eyes,haha,if you know what I mean.
    Kinda like the prodicle son I guess.I know you don't want us to but we think of you in our prayers along with others.But mostly we pray for ourselves .I still think we are fallen angels though I could change my mind.

    See, the bible isn't supposed to be taken literally. Each person has their own interpretation of what is written in the bible. Some people interpret that particular writing as "I must give 10% of my money to the church".

    First of all, does ANY other religious teach that the female body should be hidden from sight?

    HOW THE FUCK CAN HUMANS INTERACT WITHOUT SEXUAL DESIRE? Yahweh/Jesus has a solution to that issue...cut off body parts including the balls!

    Folks, does that sound like a jealous human psychopath, or a cosmic intelligence beyond our comprehension?

    You should read it before opining on it. Your opinions may actually make more sense that way. Here's a hint, there's an IF in that section of scripture. Check it out sometime.

    I thought that was only in relation to seeing Helen Thomas nude?

    Teller says religious views are in our DNA. Teller doesn't even know what DNA is. But let's assume he meant inherited trait.

    IS TELLER SAYING THAT HASSIDIC DUMBASSES WOULD DO WHAT THEY DO IF THEY WERE NOT BRAINWASHED FROM DAY ONE!

    R U FUCKING KIDDING MEH TELLER?

    No, he never said your religious views are in your DNA, he said that your Jewish ethnicity is a biological fact and it will always be in your DNA, but as for your religious views, you chose to celebrate Jewish holidays and traditions of Judaism because your parents have been making you do that, for what it's worth, not because of your race itself.

    Idiocy is part of your DNA and it seems to escalate as time passes, like a latent sexual perversion that will flower once (if ever) your balls have dropped.
    Quando vem a madrugada, meu pensamento vagueia
    Corro os dedos na viola, contemplando a lua cheia
    Apesar de tudo existe, uma fonte de água pura
    Quem beber daquela água, não terá mais amargura

    Desilusão, desilusão
    Danço eu dança você
    Na dança da solidão

    Unhappy

    The whole point of plucking out they eyes is that it's better to go through life blind and without the sin they create than lose your place in heaven. That is the Christian take on that particular theme. Looks like I'm going straight to hell.

    Guido, your Jewish ethnicity isn't the reason why you're an idiot, it's the fact that you are so ashamed of it that makes you an idiot, among other things.

    The hypocritical thing about the concept is that the "believers" electing to dismember themselves or damage their sensory organs think they are going to be experiencing all kinds of pleasant sensory experiences after they die! Talk about an insane philosophy, but one that controls the masses. The Muslim theme of getting 72 revirginating virgins for doing things that are not pleasant or Earth is a variation of that madness.

    Lol. So it means too many Hand Shandies (HJ) will make you go blind. And there I thought blindness was caused by something else.
    Theism: the virus that infects and disables the brain's inbuilt bullshit detector.

    Kill a man, and you are an assassin. Kill millions of men, and you are a conqueror. Kill everyone, and you are God.

    Don't try to sell me on god. I don't BUY BULL!

    Try to debate the article, not the author.

    That is an extremely weird post. Bears no resemblance to reality.

    Neither does pavlos, so it's apropos.
    President Josiah Bartlet: Sweden has a 100% literacy rate. 100%! How do they do that?

    Leo McGarry: Maybe they don't and they can't add.

    The Bible quote you're mangling says to pluck out your eye IF it "offends thee"; ie, is for some reason the cause of your damnation, because, it reasons, it's better to lose an eye than have your entire soul cast into Hell.
