questions and answers
What is the correct religion?
Christianity, obviously. Because I grew up in a mainly Christian country.
What is the correct version of Christianity?
Well, I was going to say Church of Scotland, because I grew up with them, but then I stumbled upon Yahweh’s Restoration Ministry.
What’s Yahweh’s Restoration Ministry?
I have no idea. But in their Q&A section you can find answers to these questions:
- Can we eat bananas (according to clean food laws) since they lack seeds?
- Is wearing jewelry a sin?
- How do you know what vowels are in YHWH?
- Is it true in Genesis 6 that fallen angels mated with women in Genesis 6:1-4 and the resultant offspring were giants?
When will people stop wasting so much time pouring over the Bible, finding even more interpretations of the random nonsense and convincing themselves that this time they’ve got it right?
Apparently, never.
Is that the best picture of a bee ever taken?
It certainly does appear that way.
I applaud you for writing this post. *applauds*

Hahahaa. You had me going for a second. I then had to visit Youtube to see if these fine folks had any videos. 🙂 “Circumcision of the Heart” is the best title ever for a religious song. Ever.

Yahweh’s Restoration Ministry, huh? I wonder if they’re aware YHWH comes from the Shasu YHW? Nah, silly me… these people aren’t looking for reality. Slap wrist, walk away….

I expect they do. Their Q&A section is quite comprehensive. They have a nice piece on the Trinity, a topic which was annoying me yesterday for some reason I can’t recall …

Some add vowels and things to get ‘Jehovah’, others (a more modern ancient pretension) opt for the glamorous ‘Yahweh’. Some like to confuse the four symbols of the ineffable name of effing God to be a ‘tetragrammaton’ (which it is) and create yet more esoteric cults around that.
To each his own, and I dare say that God is waiting in the wings for someone to finally get it right when calling Him by name and then He’ll sweep down in all His glory … until then the celestial sulking and Hissy Fit will continue unabated and in the meantime we’ll keep fighting our wars over (a) the true name of God, and (b) who is/was the truest real prophet, and (c) how many other living gods were conceived by immaculate virgins (quite a few, actually).
(Phew! I can’t believe I said all that in just one breath … when divinely inspired, I can do anything.)

You might know s*** about really taking ”sex seriously” but you do take seriously smashing pictures.
Now let me read this post.

Thank you for calling my pictures ‘seriously smashing’. It’s like being in an episode of Grange Hill.
I’m intrigued. As I “know s*** about taking ‘sex seriously'”, I was wondering if you’d like to do a post outlining your ideas relating to sensible strategies towards sex. Let’s see what you come up with.

It is definitely worth considering. Would you prefer:
a) a serious straight as an arrow post .
b) an slightly off-the -wall post ( even though I realise you will struggle with the humour)

Is the Church of Scotland an our-interpretation-only one-true-church cult?

Thank you for recognising the best of the bees 🙂
I like that you think the Church of Scotland might be a cult along those lines. It makes it sound kind of glamorous!

There are a lot of one-true-church cults out there. More than the normal churches, I daresay. But they don’t have the numbers. The majority of Christians (by head count) see those splinter groups as fringe extremists anyway.
