Reply #28: So says Jeremiah [View All]

[NMMNG]

"Thus saith the Lord, Learn not the way of the heathen, and be not dismayed at the signs of heaven; for the heathen are dismayed at them. For the customs of the people are vain: for one cutteth a tree out of the forest, the work of the hands of the workman, with the axe. They deck it with silver and with gold; they fasten it with nails and with hammers, that it move not. . . . They are altogether brutish and foolish." (Jeremiah 10:2-8)


So if the fundies insist the Bible be read and followed literally, they shouldn't be freaking out over what the trees are called, they should be refusing to have them at all.


As for me, I really like purple on my tree.
