deuteronomy + day 4 = venting

im back with a little scripture to start you off. a good friend of mine introduced this to me tonight, and i could not let it pass by. below i have copied and pasted this, and i have confirmed it by also looking in the "good news bible" todays english version .

6 If your very own brother, or your son or daughter, or the wife you love, or your closest friend secretly entices you, saying, "Let us go and worship other gods" (gods that neither you nor your fathers have known, 7 gods of the peoples around you, whether near or far, from one end of the land to the other), 8 do not yield to him or listen to him. Show him no pity. Do not spare him or shield him. 9 You must certainly put him to death. Your hand must be the first in putting him to death, and then the hands of all the people. 10 Stone him to death, because he tried to turn you away from the LORD your God, who brought you out of Egypt, out of the land of slavery. 11 Then all Israel will hear and be afraid, and no one among you will do such an evil thing again.

well well well... this is pretty good stuff. tell you the truth this is why i just so happen to be an antitheist. and honestly, i don't think that if i believed in "the lord" that i would want to go to heaven. frankly, he would scare the living shit out of me. what do you think he would do if you said lord your a dick. hey what happened to bill? he got bashed in the head by the lord with a fucking rock, died on the spot. wtf happened? he called him a dick.

please deal with one more, i promise not to constantly burn you out on too many of these. 1 more and i am done with the bible today i swear to god. HAH im kidding, well i promise it's the last for the day.

1 The LORD said to Moses, 2 "Say to the Israelites: 'When anyone sins unintentionally and does what is forbidden in any of the LORD's commands-
3 " 'If the anointed priest sins, bringing guilt on the people, he must bring to the LORD a young bull without defect as a sin offering for the sin he has committed. 4 He is to present the bull at the entrance to the Tent of Meeting before the LORD. He is to lay his hand on its head and slaughter it before the LORD. 5 Then the anointed priest shall take some of the bull's blood and carry it into the Tent of Meeting. 6 He is to dip his finger into the blood and sprinkle some of it seven times before the LORD, in front of the curtain of the sanctuary. 7 The priest shall then put some of the blood on the horns of the altar of fragrant incense that is before the LORD in the Tent of Meeting. The rest of the bull's blood he shall pour out at the base of the altar of burnt offering at the entrance to the Tent of Meeting. 8 He shall remove all the fat from the bull of the sin offering—the fat that covers the inner parts or is connected to them, 9 both kidneys with the fat on them near the loins, and the covering of the liver, which he will remove with the kidneys- 10 just as the fat is removed from the ox [a] sacrificed as a fellowship offering. [b] Then the priest shall burn them on the altar of burnt offering. 11 But the hide of the bull and all its flesh, as well as the head and legs, the inner parts and offal- 12 that is, all the rest of the bull—he must take outside the camp to a place ceremonially clean, where the ashes are thrown, and burn it in a wood fire on the ash heap.

fuck it you can just kill me or whatever, this sounds way to fucking complicated for an accidental mistake. but i promise not to only slow down to 2 mph at a stop sign again. i will come to a complete stop and look both ways twice!
ok i made a promise and i intend to keep it! now i have found a scripture i'd like to reccomend, it's leviticus 18:1-30. "forbidden sexual practices.

bah! it's day 4 and i can honestly say that this is the longest i have been without alcohal since the late 90's-early 2000's. even though it has been a little tough, i have had no huge urges to drink anything other than water or diet soda. work has kept me more than occupied for the week as we are now on thursday heading into friday for most people, and i am on pace for a 55+ hr work week. 60 w/breaks. my body is physically exhausted, but my mind has been wide awake. i can not say that i have slept for more than 4 hours a night mostly because of distractions i'd like to think. i received 2 fantastic messages from t-mobile basically telling me what i allready know which is that my blackberry is fucked up. i received a call from an old apartment complex that i used to live at, so that they could tell me how incompetent that they all were. i had my maintinance guy at my current complex knock at my door to ask me for my garage opener since it was fucked up as it has been for a week. now he came by at 9am which my wife has told all of these ignorant assholes to please stop fucking with me before 2pm as i work nights and attempt to sleep from 6am-2pm. well i give him the damn thing anyway and he walks away and guess what, my little dog thought it would be a fantastic time to chase the man out the door. thanks pook! so i said fuck it, ill watch a movie on the couch and try to go back to bed turn on the dvd player which my old dog ate the remote for, put in the dvd and it was scratched and skipping no more than 2 minutes into the movie. so i am edgy due to the shock of not having any alcohol, and everyone is fucking with me!

thanks for being kind enough to read my thoughts for the day, and wish me luck through my 1st alcohol free weekend!
