Celebrities / Nigerians Come For Singer Jidenna Over His Comments About Nigeria by DamselH33(f): 10:45am On Jul 11, 2015
In a recent interview, American-Nigerian singer Jidenna
said he brought in a lot of AK47s and employed military
commandos when he came to Nigeria to bury his his
father for fear of being kidnapped because
'light-skin' people are more valuable than 'dark-skin'
people. Nigerians think it was a silly thing to say and
have come for him on Twitter. See their tweets after the
cut..

Religion / 11 Things The Bible Bans, But You Do Anyway by DamselH33(f): 10:27pm On Jul 07, 2015
Here are 11 things that are technically banned by the
Bible. (All quotes are translations from the New
American Standard Bible , but, because I’m actually
trying to maintain serious journalistic integrity here, I
cross-referenced several other translations to make
sure I wasn’t missing the point.)
1. Round haircuts. See you in Hell, Beatles… and/or
kids with bowl cuts, surfer cuts or (my favorite)
butt cuts. Leviticus 19:27 reads “You shall not
round off the side-growth of your heads nor
harm the edges of your beard.”
2. Football. At least, the pure version of football,
where you play with a pigskin. The modern
synthetic footballs are ugly and slippery anyways.
Leviticus 11:8 , which is discussing pigs, reads
“You shall not eat of their flesh nor touch their
carcasses; they are unclean to you.”
And you’re doubly breaking that if you wake up,
eat some sausage then go throw around the
football. Or go to the county fair and enter a
greased pig catching contest.
3. Fortune telling. Before you call a 900 number (do
people still call 900 numbers, by the way?), read
your horoscope or crack open a fortune cookie,
realize you’re in huge trouble if you do.
Leviticus 19:31 reads “Do not turn to mediums
or spiritists; do not seek them out to be defiled
by them. I am the Lord your God.” The penalty
for that? Check Leviticus 20:6 : “As for the person
who turns to mediums and to spiritists, to play
the harlot after them, I will also set My face
against that person and will cut him off from
among his people.”
Seems like a lifetime of exile is a pretty harsh
penalty for talking to Zoltar.
4. Pulling out. The Bible doesn’t get too much into
birth control… it’s clearly pro-populating but,
back when it was written, no one really
anticipated the condom or the sponge, so those
don’t get specific bans.
But… pulling out does. One of the most famous
sexual-oriented Bible verses… the one that’s
used as anti-masturbation rhetoric… is actually
anti-pulling out.
It’s Genesis 38:9-10 : “Onan knew that the
offspring would not be his; so when he went in to
his brother’s wife, he wasted his seed on the
ground in order not to give offspring to his
brother. But what he did was displeasing in the
sight of the Lord; so He took his life also.”
Yep — pull out and get smote. That’s harsh.
5. Tattoos. No tattoos. Leviticus 19:28 reads, “You
shall not make any cuts in your body for the dead
nor make any tattoo marks on yourselves: I am
the Lord.”
Not even a little butterfly on your ankle. Or Thug
Life across your abdomen. Or even, fittingly
enough, a cross.
6. Polyester, or any other fabric blends. The Bible
doesn’t want you to wear polyester. Not just
because it looks cheap. It’s sinfully unnatural.
Leviticus 19:19 reads, “You are to keep My
statutes. You shall not breed together two kinds
of your cattle; you shall not sow your field with
two kinds of seed, nor wear a garment upon you
of two kinds of material mixed together.”
Check the tag on your shirt right now. Didn’t
realize you were mid-sin at this exact second, did
you? (Unless you checked the tag by rolling off
your neighbor’s wife while you two were having
anal sex in the middle of robbing a blind guy.
Then your Lycra-spandex blend is really the least
of your problems.)
7. Divorce. The Bible is very clear on this one: No
divorcing. You can’t do it. Because when you
marry someone, according to Mark 10:8 , you
“are no longer two, but one flesh.” And, Mark
10:9 reads, “What therefore God has joined
together, let no man separate.”
Mark gets even more hardcore about it a few
verses later, in Mark 10:11-12 , “And He said to
them, ‘Whoever divorces his wife and marries
another woman commits adultery against her;
and if she herself divorces her husband and
marries another man, she is committing
adultery.’”
8. Letting people without testicles into church.
Whether you’ve been castrated or lost one or
two balls to cancer isn’t important. The Bible
doesn’t get that specific. It just says you can’t
pray.
Deuteronomy 23:1 reads (this is the God’s Word
translation, which spells it out better), “A man
whose testicles are crushed or whose penis is cut
off may never join the assembly of the Lord.”
Oh, and the next verse says that if you’re a
bastard, the child of a bastard… or even have a
great-great-great-great-great-great-great-
grandchild of a bastard, you can’t come to
church or synagogue either. Deuteronomy 23:2
reads, “No one of illegitimate birth shall enter
the assembly of the Lord; none of his
descendants, even to the tenth generation, shall
enter the assembly of the Lord.”
9. Wearing gold. 1 Timothy 2:9 doesn’t like your
gold necklace at all. Or your pearl necklace. Or
any clothes you’re wearing that you didn’t get
from Forever 21, Old Navy or H&M.
“Likewise, I want women to adorn themselves
with proper clothing, modestly and discreetly, not
with braided hair and gold or pearls or costly
garments.”
10. Shellfish. Leviticus 11:10 reads, “But whatever is
in the seas and in the rivers that does not have
fins and scales among all the teeming life of the
water, and among all the living creatures that are
in the water, they are detestable things to you.”
And shellfish is right in that wheelhouse.
Leviticus 11 bans a TON of animals from being
eaten (it’s THE basis for Kosher law ); beyond
shellfish and pig, it also says you can’t eat camel,
rock badger, rabbit, eagle, vulture, buzzard,
falcon, raven, crow, ostrich, owl, seagull, hawk,
pelican, stork, heron, bat, winged insects that
walk on four legs unless they have joints to jump
with like grasshoppers (?), bear, mole, mouse,
lizard, gecko, crocodile, chameleon and snail.
Sorry if that totally ruins your plans to go to a
rock badger eat-off this weekend.
11. Your wife defending your life in a fight by
grabbing your attacker’s genitals. No joke.
Deuteronomy actually devotes two verses to this
exact scenario: Deuteronomy 25:11-12 .
“If two men, a man and his countryman, are
struggling together, and the wife of one comes
near to deliver her husband from the hand of the
one who is striking him, and puts out her hand
and seizes his genitals, then you shall cut off her
hand; you shall not show pity.”
That’s impossible to misinterpret. Ladies, if your
husband is getting mugged, make sure to kick
the mugger in the pills. Do not do the grip and
squeeze (no matter what “Miss Congeniality”
might advise). Or your hand needs to be cut off.
As a final note, I know that nine of these 11 cite the
Old Testament, which Christianity doesn’t necessarily
adhere to as law.
To which I say: If you’re going to ignore the section of
Leviticus that bans about tattoos, pork, shellfish,
round haircuts, polyester and football, how can you
possibly turn around and quote Leviticus 18:22 (“You
shall not lie with a male as one lies with a female; it is
an abomination.”) as irrefutable law?
But that’s me trying to introduce logic to religious
fanaticism (or, at least, trying to counter some mix of
ignorance, bigotry and narcissism with logic). And I
should probably know better.
