Thank you Julie! And welcome to the 1% club. I wish more people would use their brains a bit. You will also notice that practically every single other "controversy" involves situations where the government has injected itself, using brute force to make everyone conform to this or that point of view: sex ed in public schools, stem cell research (it's about government funding), and of course the recent spate of tax payer "investments" in terminally mismanaged companies. The list is endless. Many of the world's problems would solve themselves if governments would simply keep their big, fat, blood-soaked hands off of things.

Crimzen… and everyone really.

Read the bible, if you think XXXIX is offensive you’d love the passage about it. You’d also get a kick out of Lott having people rape his daughters to protect his guests butts.

the thing a few of you are missing is that those are all real bible passages, they aren’t making this crap up, they are just reading the parts that people ‘gloss over’. Yes, they are a joke site, and a funny one at that, but the passages they quote are real

Remember that when people say the bible is full of morals to live by

I’m suprised there isn’t an amendment legalizing polygamy. Especially in the case of widows.

Oh boy! I’m glad Landover doesn’t run the country or I’d be burned at the stake as an adulteress due to being married and divorced twice.

This is completely ridiculous. Things like this are what make me thrilled to not live in the USA any longer. Brazil is also full of evangelist pricks who think themselves superior to everyone else, but at least here they have the decency to shut up and just be glad that we’re going to Hell and they’re not.

Although it is fun to answer the door and reply to “Have you spoken to Jesus today?” with “no, my religion won’t allow it.”

This list is delightful, thank you for sharing it. As a previous commenter noted Amendment XXXX (can’t marry an aggressive, contentitious woman) is entertaining. When I was reading the list, along with the relevant Bible passages, I couldn’t help from remembering how sex-obsessed the document is. Hitchens makes note of this in his book. But when you think about it, there’s a bunch of references about not only who slept with who, but also instructions on how, why, when, and if one may engage in relations with another person. In my mind this makes the Bible a lot less child-friendly than the “Sex in The City” series, which is relatively tame in comparison (hard to beat the story of Noah’s daughters). Still, there are legions of religious people out there that want this book in the hands of every child for the purposes of moral instruction. Even as a guy, I think more cogent lessons may be learned by watching the aforementioned television series, but that’s another discussion. Going back to the Bible, it’s hard to overlook the perverted absurdity of this proposed deity that possesses over and manipulates sexual interactions among humans, and those purient prophets that wrote about it. I’m sure others have noticed this as well. The proposed amendments seem to resonate this strong theme in the Bible.
