I did'nt know there was Donkey Porn in the bible! I'll have to stert reading!!

There's also a story where a Levite let's some men rape and murder his concubine, and then cuts her into peices for some kind of symbolism. I really wish I remember where that was...

One of my favorites is Matthew 26:39-42, Jesus in the Garden

39 And he went a little farther, and fell on his face, and prayed, saying, O my Father, if it be possible, let this cup pass from me: nevertheless not as I will, but as thou wilt.

40 And he cometh unto the disciples, and findeth them asleep, and saith unto Peter, What, could ye not watch with me one hour?

41 Watch and pray, that ye enter not into temptation: the spirit indeed is willing, but the flesh is weak.

42 He went away again the second time, and prayed, saying, O my Father, if this cup may not pass away from me, except I drink it, thy will be done.

It's in Judges 19. A very freaky story, but not a favorite biblical phrase!



"Whoso keepeth his mouth and his tongue keepeth his soul from troubles." Proverbs 21: 23
