I found one of those pocket bibles missionaries give out in a bathroom stall today. I didn’t touch it with my hand of course but I was able to determine it came from gideon’s international as it said on the cover page (used a piece of paper to turn the page)...

Bathroom gospel?

I’m don’t think this was just a joke or a person reading it and forgetting it in the stall as it was placed nicely on top of the toilet paper dispenser. Also from reading their distribution philosophy it makes sense they would put in a place like that. I don’t know if a “missionary” put it there but if they did isn’t that going a bit too far in spreading the “gospel”? I mean christianity is everywhere can I at least have the bathroom in peace.

I just realized there was a joke in the subject line, sometimes I can be slow!

If the bible is left there as some sort of evangelical converting tool, I always wondered how it would work. The bible is one nasty book (ie book of Leviticus). I was once talking to a co-worker who I knew attended church regularly. I asked her how often she read the bible, or more pointedly, when was the last time she read it. She replied, "perhaps I should read it more". I suspect many religious really don't bother with reading the bible.

I was careful not to touch the pages directly with my hands but all it had was proverbs + psalms and the new testament also it was one of those newer generation bibles that is more heavily edited to get the "correct" message across; the New King James version it said.

A good idea for conversion. leave out the "bad parts" and just say Jesus loves you all if you only accept! No time is the wrong time, even when you are taking a dump.

A conversion story like that would be worth going to church just for the laugh. I'm thinking of the first Austin Powers movie only no irish lucky charms murder guy just jesus showing up.

Sorry for the bathroom humor but come on, if not here than where?

Do you really even want me to quote the nasty parts of the bible? We both know what's there and it's a waste of time to play that game. Typical, leave out most of the book and only include the parts you like.

By those standards my collected writings just on this forum would win the pulitzer prize (I'm a terrible writer too)!

They're taking a risk in leaving Bibles in such close vicinities to toilets.

Kopji · 27th February 2007, 10:08 PM

I always laugh a little at attempts to throw mud on the Gideons. Sheesh, aren't there better targets? How about a big billboard that says "SANTA IS NOT REAL!" outside a children's hospital?

Quote:

Members of The Gideons International place and distribute scriptures in 181 countries in 82 languages. We focus on five primary areas:

Hotels and Motels
Hospitals, Nursing Homes, and Domestic Violence Shelters
Schools, Colleges, and Universities
The Military, Law Enforcement Personnel, Firefighters, and EMTs
Prisons and Jails

I don't get it. What's the problem? If people didn't systematically lie about Santa in the first place it would be a non-issue.

Doesn't that kinda diminish the real emotion of "love"? It's like how we overuse the term "hero" when referring to Nascar drivers and other sports figures.

As much as I do enjoy "loving" myself, I don't plan on going out and giving HJ's to my neighbors ....

Funny how the Bible proscribes the harshest treatments for one's neighbors.

An interesting idea, and something I have considered myself. How about this for a billboard?

True Christian Love:

Genesis 30: And Lot went up out of Zoar, and dwelt in the mountain, and his two daughters with him; for he feared to dwell in Zoar: and he dwelt in a cave, he and his two daughters.

31 And the firstborn said unto the younger, Our father is old, and there is not a man in the earth to come in unto us after the manner of all the earth:

32 Come, let us make our father drink wine, and we will lie with him, that we may preserve seed of our father.

33 And they made their father drink wine that night: and the firstborn went in, and lay with her father; and he perceived not when she lay down, nor when she arose.

Someone at my place of employment keeps leaving Jack Chick tracts in the men's room. I've found two or three of them so far. Doesn't fill anything in at the "contact me here" part in the back though, so it's anonymous.

I always read them for the humor and trash it before someone gullible gets ahold of it.

Maybe you could put the JREF site or Richard Dawkins Site under the "contact me" and put it back.

I had the God Squad knock on Casa de Anthrope's door this morning. When I saw the bibles in hand, I immediately thought of this thread and realized that the person leaving the bible in the toilet is so much less annoying than these guys.

They held the books and told me the answers to why all of the world's problems of today were in them. And then I thought to myself "I am almost out of toilet paper, and I really don't feel like going to the grocery store.They may be right."

I would have said to them, "Yes, many of today's problems are caused by that and similar books, and the people whom believe all that is written in them to be true".

The way Bibles are made, it's actually physically impossible to wipe your ass with the pages. It's kind of like how the combination of colors on the American flag shut off all lower GI functions.

I had the God Squad knock on Casa de Anthrope's door this morning. When I saw the bibles in hand, I immediately thought of this thread and realized that the person leaving the bible in the toilet is so much less annoying than these guys. They held the books and told me the answers to why all of the world's problems of today were in them. And then I thought to myself "I am almost out of toilet paper, and I really don't feel like going to the grocery store.They may be right."

The way Bibles are made, it's actually physically impossible to wipe your ass with the pages. It's kind of like how the combination of colors on the American flag shut off all lower GI functions.
