If you pray to god while you’re in the car, he can’t hear you. God really does not like cars. You can speak to god on a train, however.

The original Hebrew text of the Bible was never against gay people!! There was simply a mistake in translating to Greek (the language the rest of the Bible was in) it stated either man cannot lay with boy or man cannot lay with child. I can’t remember. So it’s anti pedophilia not being gay!!

YES I KNEW THAT!!! It makes me so mad how people still believe it’s about being gay, even though I feel like it’s a thing a lot of people know atleast as of recent

There’s actually a bit of misinterpretation in modern translations of the Bible (shocker I know), but there’s actually a really interesting difference in the book of Psalms specifically. Old Hebrew poetry actually has a couple different structures that are unique to that language and time, most relying on the idea of parallelism. A lot of Hebrew poetry would be considered a bicolon or tricolon. Each colon (or segment of the full phrase) would mirror the other colons in structure. An example of a bicolon would be “You who dwell in the shelter of the Most High, who abide in the shadow of the Almighty (Psalm 91:1).”

My mom has a masters in divinity so I picked up on a lot of random Bible trivia.

Random Fact #6,495

The King James Bible was commissioned by King James VI of Scotland/King James I of England specifically to distract the church from the fact that he had a male lover, George Villiers.

So King James was gay?!

Probably bi, actually, as he did have a mistress too.

"Top 5 Historical Evidences That Prove the Bible is True"

The Holy Bible, the best-selling book in the world, holds significant historical value and has been translated into 3,324 languages. Its authenticity is supported by several archaeological discoveries. The Pilate Inscription, found in 1916, confirms Pontius Pilate as the governor of Judea, as mentioned in John 18:29. Hezekiah’s Tunnel, rediscovered in 1837, aligns with the account in 2 Chronicles 32:30. The Taylor Prism, discovered in 1830, corroborates the biblical description of King Sennacherib's reign. The David Inscription, found in 1993, verifies the existence of King David, supporting 1 Kings 12:19. Lastly, the Cyrus Cylinder, unearthed in 1879, matches the biblical decree of Cyrus the Great in Ezra 1:2. These findings provide substantial evidence for the historical accuracy of the Bible.

God can commune with anybody in the whole entire world, except French people. God doesn’t know French.

Pretty sure this was a biblical plague. The frogs stealing phones. Not borrowers. Borrowers were invented in the 17th century.
