Create Your Own Bible Verse
Here’s the deal, we all know that the Bible says some really ridiculous things. There are actually restrictions on how long you can grow your hair, what kind of clothing you can wear, and what you should do with your… excrement. So I thought it might be fun to make up your own wacky Bible verse and try to pass it on as real.
I bet it will be really easy. All you have to do is throw in a “thou” and a “thy” here and there and slap on a Bible book name and numbers. Using the Old Testament is probably easier than the New Testament, but really either could work.
For example, did you know that the Bible supports masturbation except after midnight? It’s true, “and verily I say to you, thou shall spill thy seed upon the firmament unless thy moon has moved upon thy following day.” Numbers 35:18
Create your verse and pass it alone through your social networks, friends, and family and see how many people believe it and how many people call you out. I bet even some really religious people will buy it, but will dismiss it as metaphorical or as out of context. Let me know your verse and your results. Have fun!
