  • This is a joke, right?

  • Roflmao. Wow. What'd the flyer actually say?

  • hahahahahaha . . . it is so much fun to poke at the idiots, isn't it?  Thanks for posting this.

  • @Saridactyl - 

    See I have no clue. There are actual Bible passages listed but I can't make them out. I can make out the books under the first two headlines but not the third.

  • @FallenReign - 

    I have no clue but I found it this morning and had to post it. The strange thing about it is that there are Bible references but I can't make them out. I just know the first one comes from Matthew and the second comes from Mark. There is a story in the Bible about a fig tree and Jesus cursed it so that is probably what it is relaying.

  • @adventofreason - 

    Sometimes their actions make me ashamed that I call myself Christian, not all of us are like that.

  • @godfatherofgreenbay - that's pretty funny...I mean, wow. God hates figs. It's kinda catchy :P

  • Eggzactly.  I wish, if they felt compelled to spout such filth, they would at least have the courtesy to keep God out of it.  They sure as heck don't represent Chrisianity, that's for sure.  I can feel myself rapidly leaping up the steps to my soapbox . . .somebody stop me!!!

  • I love figs!

  • Every time I see those people in the news, I hope that they're just trolling everyone... but I'm pretty sure they're just nuts.

  • @kachino - 

    They are so delicious but who knew...

  • @Saridactyl - 

    I remember watching a documentary on those people and it was done by a British guy(I think with BBC) and it was just a shock as to how they brainwashed kids into that false Biblical doctrine. They showed footage of their protests and how people egged them and one kid got seriously hurt and they just said that they would get a better place in heaven for what they have to endure.

  • Hey, Jesus (according to tha bible) actually cursed a fig tree for not producing fruit. It was *not* fig season, though. Oh, that Jesus.

    JESUS HATES FIGS! JESUS HATES FIGS! JESUS HATES FIGS!  (repeat after me) JESUS HATES FIGS!!

    I can't really say if this is a joke or not. Damn that Poe's Law!

  • @In_Reason_I_Trust - 

    Thanks, I haven't been keeping up on my Bible history. I am trying to make out those Bible passages. I figure one is the story of Jesus cursing the fig tree. I am going to have to do a Concordance search for figs in the Bible.

  • Wow...seriously? I'm sure there's going to be a revelife post about this soon.

  • @TheKittenRoars - 

    I was sort of offended by one that said that Christian men should wear beards. Some Christians don't realize what the point of the law and Christ is...sorry, I used to be a minister.

  • @godfatherofgreenbay -  I saw that post too.  It left me shaking my head in wonder as to how revelife could feature it.

  • @TheKittenRoars - 

    I think half the time whoever decides what is featured over there just looks for stuff that will be controversial to get people talking thus boosting traffic.

  • Fig eaters walk with Satan!

  • I'd take "God hates figs" over "God hates fags" anyday.

    Just sayin'.

  • you said you couldn't read the verses on the flyer - it's

    matthew 21:18-20

     18Early in the morning, as he was on his way back to the city, he was hungry. 19Seeing a fig tree by the road, he went up to it but found nothing on it except leaves. Then he said to it, "May you never bear fruit again!" Immediately the tree withered.

     20When the disciples saw this, they were amazed. "How did the fig tree wither so quickly?" they asked.

    mark 11:12-14

     12The next day as they were leaving Bethany, Jesus was hungry. 13Seeing in the distance a fig tree in leaf, he went to find out if it had any fruit. When he reached it, he found nothing but leaves, because it was not the season for figs. 14Then he said to the tree, "May no one ever eat fruit from you again." And his disciples heard him say it.

    jeremiah 29:17 -

    18Early in the morning, as he was on his way back to the city, he was hungry. 19Seeing a fig tree by the road, he went up to it but found nothing on it except leaves. Then he said to it, "May you never bear fruit again!" Immediately the tree withered.

     20When the disciples saw this, they were amazed. "How did the fig tree wither so quickly?" they asked.

    this is just too hilarious! it's basically the same verse, over and over again.

  • Jesus ate figs like the t-rex ate it's prey.

    ALL YOUR FIGS ARE BELONG TO US!!

  • @ithiliya - 

    Thank you, I am going to have to go through these for my links update.

  • He threw a tantrum because a fig tree was barren? Talk about abuse of power.

  • My fig love is going to send me straight to hell, I knew it!!

    And I haven't read the series about Dexter. I've heard it's sweet.

  • it was alot of fun- you should go to wv- im planning on moving there

  • @UR_MUSE - 

    Funny thing about that statement is that I was not able to sleep one night either this week or last week(they all mesh together when you can't sleep) and I came across the 700 Club and they had a Christian preacher that promoted healthy living and basically said if you eat foods that aren't 100% healthy you are running the risk of eternal damnation. I thought figs were healthy. It's so confusing.

  • @Shy___Away - 

    Yeah that is probably a better message and may attract more people to learn more about the Bible.

  • @its_me_katie - 

    Thank you. My eyes are getting bad or something. Maybe it's that I am getting old. I'll need those huge glasses like this guy

  • @Another_Perfect_Wonder - 

    So Jesus can eat figs and God hates it so we can't...I guess no one ever said Christianity was easy to understand. Sort of like how some Christian groups say that you are damned to hell if any alcohol touches your lips but we read about how Jesus drank wine. Their response is always, "Well things were different then and they didn't have the assortment of drinks or quality water and besides he was God."

  • @MelFamy - 

    In all my years of theological training, I have never had a pastor give a straight answer or even a decent explanation of that account. I have had about 10 different explanations and when I ask why the differences they tell me to go read what Luther said.

  • @twistedmistletoe - 

    Well figs may be horrible to eat but they are an excellent source of clothes.

    I think there are about 3 Dexter books currently available and the 4th comes out this spring. The first book is basically where they got season 1 but the second season didn't come from the book, well maybe one or two elements. Some of the characters have different jobs than in the TV show but that isn't too distracting. One of the books deals with one of the Old Testament idols that the people of Israel were drawn to worship and that is very creepy stuff.

  • @sexydevilgirl - 

    Yeah, I need to get over into those eastern states. I had a high school and college classmate from West Virginia and he said there was nothing quite like it.

  • @godfatherofgreenbay - Whenever I hear that you were once a man of the cloth, I think of your icon, and imagine Paulie Walnuts badgering people who don't pony up enough for the collection plate.

  • If we were to scorch and burn every fig tree, where would we get our fig leaves?  Maybe god doesn't want us to cover ourselves after all.

  • @MelFamy - 

    Funny thing is, there was an episode in The Sopranos where he was badgering a priest about the collection plates and raising money for a church carnival. I wasn't cut from the same cloth as others.

  • @curiousdwk - 

    That is a good point because then all beaches would be fun beaches and I wouldn't have to worry about them being total sausage fests.
