And there it is, folks: proof by show tune.

I was waiting for this brilliant comment from one of
you mental giants. Tim Rice followed the Biblical scriptures
meticulously when he wrote the lyrics to the production.
The NT scriptures were the only source he had to work with,
as there is no other available.

JCS is one of my favorite musicals. I had the CD in the car so I
listened to it on the way home from work. Maybe you can indicate
which Biblical verses Mr. Rice meticulously followed when he wrote the
following:

Judas: about Mary Magdalene:

"It seems to me a strange thing, mystifying
That a man like you can waste his time on women of her kind.
Yes, I can understand that she amuses,
But to let her kiss you, stroke your hair, that's hardly in your line.
It's not that I object to her profession,
But she doesn't fit in well with what you teach and say.
It doesn't help us if you're inconsistent.
hey only need a small excuse to put us all away."

To what do the lyrics "women of her kind" and "her profession" refer?


The Apostles: at the Last Supper

"Always hoped that I'd be an apostle.
Knew that I would make it if I tried.
Then when we retire, we can write the Gospels,
So they'll still talk about us when we've died."

Where in the Bible do the Apostles express these sentiments?


I am not trying to "prove" anything to you. I frankly don't give
a **** what you think, feel, etc., on the subject.

I believe you. You made a silly statement only to evoke a response
from a horrible atheist pointing out that you made a silly statement
so that you could complain about the horrible atheist making the
comment that you knew that the horrible atheist would make so that you
could tell the horrible atheist that you "don't give a ****" what the
horrible atheist thinks or feels. Yes, that makes perfect sense.

I never saw it coming.

I could not believe that anyone who had read this book
would be so foolish as to proclaim that the Bible in every
literal word was the divinely inspired, inerrant word of
God? Have these people simply not read the text? Are they
hopelessly uninformed? Is there a different Bible? Are
they blinded by a combination of ego needs and naivete?

Then why bother replying? Life that much of a bore for you?


I think I hurt his feelings. Christians are so fragile these days.
They break when you play with them.

He should be thanking you for not replying in AFJC form; they're very rough
on their chew-toys.
