5. I have made that argument for a very long time. God created Adam and Steve not Adam and Eve.

If God used, as the bible suggests material from Adam to form another human being then you
have a clone, (Adam and Steve); God then does a custom genetic realignment to turn Steve female.
Since Adam was the one to name this new creation and it did not look like him (Steve), he simply
left off the St and called the new creation Eve.

my take on "image and likeness." might be referring to cellular structure, or at the level of dna itself.

if a soul or a spiritual being exists at all it appears to exist outside of our sensory range. what could image and likeness mean that can not be perceived?

"So God created man in his own image, in the image of God created he him; male and female created he them."

God is intersex. Male and Female.

I actually forgot which forum this was posted in.

IN THAT CASE, The original "Popes in the Pizza" might have been even more disturbing to you, though I doubt that someone captured it off the TV screen from way back when.

Maybe I'll put up a warning. Imagine how tough it is on us computer "artists"!

I hate these monsters.

15. I vaguely remember an Enlish teacher recommending or requiring "The Jungle" by Upton Sinclair.

How the processed meat is made.

And to "top it off", most is loaded with nitrites, a highly suspect or proven carcinogen. You have to look for "no nitrites" constantly.

Then again .....


There was a king reigned in the East:
There, when kings will sit to feast,
They get their fill before they think
With poisoned meat and poisoned drink.
He gathered all that sprang to birth
From the many-venomed earth;
First a little, thence to more,
He sampled all her killing store;
And easy, smiling, seasoned sound,
Sate the king when healths went round.
They put arsenic in his meat
And stared aghast to watch him eat;
They poured strychnine in his cup
And shook to see him drink it up:
They shook, they stared as white's their shirt:
Them it was their poison hurt.
—I tell the tale that I heard told.

Mithridates, he died old.

I thought times had changed. But with RFK Stupid, we must relearn that which we already learned.

And highly recommended. Skewers Nixon and lots of his cronies in a guise as Nixon’s #1 fan.

... meme creators would make more of an effort to understand punctuation. The commas after "God" and "Man" do not belong there.
It's still funny, though!

is that Sarducci speaks with an Italian accent. So the punctuated is deliberate to created that stitled effect. Say those words out loud in your best Italian accent and see for yourself.

That said, many memes do contain poor grammar. I just believe the additional commas were intentional here.

Classic humor from Father Guido Sarducci. It is one of those timeless lines that still manages to be just as funny and relevant today as it was when first delivered.

I feel the same way about a lot of George Carlin's material. Entirely applicable today.
