A Most Fascinating Biblical Revelation

Post by HemlockGrey »

After conducting a thorough search of the New Testament and a fairly detailed search of the Old Testament, the only verse I was able to find that condemned pre-marital sex was written by Paul, who also condemned eating and sleeping.

This is most fascinating.

Didn't Paul hate women in general anyway?

Uh, he didn't actually forbid eating and sleeping. It was a joke.

Oh. Well, we're talking about Paul, here, so you never know.

Paul was a freak who believed that the Second Coming was imminent. All he says should be taken with a grain of salt, and by grain, I mean lump the size of Mars. Hence, his insistence that everyone give up their possessions and pray for their Saving.

Paul condemned, in a roundabout way, post-marital sex as well. To him, celibacy was the ideal, everything else was less.
