And now for your continuing entertainment...

The Friar is proud to present: A Tale of Two Idiots.

Once there was a Christian apologist who felt the need to defend the Bible, but rather than demonstrate how it taught people important moral and ethical lessons, decided to be a moron about it instead, and tried to convince his audience that if not for this holiest of books, man would have been forever doomed to having an IQ slightly lower than a cup of pudding (which is pretty amusing if you think about some of the wackier stuff in there, as well as various idiocies which made it into Church doctrine over the years). Interestingly, the man did not see fit to mention other such impressive moments in Bible science, such as the impressive "pi equals zero" theory, or DovBear's recent research on the Talmudic sages and astronomy. Other notable examples can be found in your handy "Mysterious Creatures" by Nosson Slifkin, aka the Jewish Book of Stupid.

And then there was a man who was arrested for doing some very bad things, but rather than admit to his wrongdoings, you know, like a man, he instead decided to complain about antisemitism, you know, like a whiny little bitch. Luckily, however, the Assistant DA decided to not let him get away with speaking such trash, and bitch-slapped him with a briefcase full of heavy law books (metaphorically speaking, of course).

I hope you all learn something from this, boys and girls.
