Swiped from a mailing list I'm on....

Oh, yeah, did you know this if God had wanted us to go Metric, Jesus would have had TEN Disciples?

(laughs)

If God had wanted us to go Metric he would have given us TEN Commandments...

You wanna see fundies combust?

Point out that the literal translation of the Hebrew word that they've using as Jesus profession is 'Uncontracted Builder of houses'... and in those times, houses we're made of stone.

Yup, Jesus was a FreeMason.

There's several mistranslations in the King James version. It's "Voice of the turtle dove" and "cable through the eye of a needle" for example.

I'd always wondered about that voice of a turtle-dove phrase.. as someone who's actually heard them, they are not quiet and they don't seem to darn well shut up!

"I bring you these fifteen..." *Crunch!* "Ten! These ten commandments!"
