Why Lefties Hate The Bible

(Hat tip to Endless Steven for providing this one.)

A quick glance at the Bible, and it's not difficult to see why the tight sphincter of the left further asphyxiates that bug up their tuchis. The Bible is full of nightmares for leftist red-tape-mongers and professional rule-imposers. Take these examples:

1. Moses parted the Red Sea without first performing an environmental impact study.

2. Jesus gave a Sermon on the Mount where he talked of giving to the poor, and spoke out against greed, and all without charging attendees $300 per ticket. (Barbra Streisand only).

3. The term "The Three Wise Men" is insensitive to the intellectually challenged. That should be changed to the "trio of educationally advantaged amateur astronomers".

4. Instead of gold, frankincense and myrrh, they should have brought hummus, incense and a representative from Child Protective Services.

5. The Virgin Mary didn't first meet with consultants from Planned Parenthood.

6. Ten plagues and still not a single person thought of nationalizing health care?

7. Adam didn't ask Eve for verbal as well as written consent before touching her.

8. Of course Cain killed Abel. He was obviously suffering either from bipolar disorder, low blood sugar, emotional abuse as a child, or societal neglect.

9. "The trials of Job" were nothing. Try getting a job with nothing but a Master's degree in Norwegian Art History – that's a test!

10. Too bad Greenpeace didn't have their own ark so they could have rammed Noah's Ark. You just know that, after the flood, Noah sold those animals to the circus.

11. The destruction of Sodom and Gomorrah could have easily been prevented if they would have passed hate-crime legislation sooner.

12. Jesus is one of the greatest teachers in history, but isn't a member of the National Education Association. In other words, God uses scab labor.

13. David slew Goliath simply because he was unfortunate enough to have been stricken with gigantism.

14. "The Last Supper" didn't offer an option for people on gluten-free diets, and the fat content on the food was not labeled.

15. The part about Jonah and the whale becoming entangled in tuna nets is conveniently passed over in the Old Testament.

16. God should have spent the seventh day not resting, but rather going around putting warning stickers on all potentially dangerous, really pointy things.

17. What's the big deal about Nebuchadnezzar spending seven years ingesting grass? Heck, Woody Harrelson's done it longer than that.

18. The Bible mentions nothing about obtaining the necessary permits to build the Tower of Babel.

19. People lived to be hundreds of years old without prescription-drug coverage? I don't think so.

20. Jesus turned water into wine, which was not very mindful of those who happened to be teetering on the brink of plunging down the stairs of their 12-step program.

21. Of all the wealth possessed by King Solomon, the amount he donated to environmental causes: $0.

And the thing about the Bible that drives the left the most crazy? People can find salvation without their assistance.

That last line is the one that hits the hardest.

Yeah, Lefties just can't stand the idea of people doing things without their "help".

On a side note, have you listened to the fellow who reads the Old Testament on LDS Audio dot Com's download? He reads it like it was a stage presentation rather than just a straight read, awesome.

I put it on my iPod and never thought it would be that great, I mean, who gets all excited about listening to the Old Testament?

I haven't listened to that one, but I did hear a German translation of Hugh B. Brown's "Profile of A Prophet". The guy literally put me to sleep the way he droned on.
