God's opinion on racism

[pasithea]

12:1 And Miriam and Aaron spake against Moses because of the Ethiopian
woman whom he had married: for he had married an Ethiopian woman.

and here's what God sez

12:7 My servant Moses is not so, who is faithful in all mine house.

12:8 With him will I speak mouth to mouth, even apparently, and not in
dark speeches; and the similitude of the LORD shall he behold:
wherefore then were ye not afraid to speak against my servant Moses?
12:9 And the anger of the LORD was kindled against them; and he
departed.

12:10 And the cloud departed from off the tabernacle; and, behold,
Miriam became leprous, white as snow: and Aaron looked upon Miriam,
and, behold, she was leprous.

White as snow

Hey, look at that! White Power! Too bad there isn't a God that would give all the racists leprosy. That would rule.

Ohwell. At least I can cite this section to them.

I'm becoming more and more convinced that right-wingers haven't ever read the book the claim to revere.

uh.. I don't get it...

Did god turn her pale white or give her leprosy for spouting out against the ethiopian or what? *scratches head* The bible is too confusing for the likes of me.

isn't the whole problem (well, not the WHOLE problem but A problem) that you can find sections and verses that support or condemn literally anything you can think of?

It's a bit hard to interprete. It sounds more like he gave he leprosy for speaking in another language? Or a least a language spoken by dark people?

right-wingers haven't ever read the book

Of course not. The bible is for thumpin', not readin'. It's to wave over your head as a symbol of your own righteousness and hatred for anyone different. It's more of a battle standard than a book.

Which book is this in? Moses?

I want to get 'em where it hurts?

You're giving me so much ammo have I mentioned my undying love towards your general direction?

Moses married a black girl. When Miriam gets her husband to go bitch about it with her, God says Moses is His boy and can do what he likes. Then slaps Miriam with a snow-white skin infection.

But it's not because Moses' wife is black. It's because she's wife to Moses (the next bit says that all them peoples gotta die 'cause they ain't Jews).
