    The bible seems filled with strangenesses...

    "Do not build an altar with steps leading up to it; if you do, you expose yourselves as you go up the steps."
    (Exodus 20:24)

    What is a man?
    "...any that pisseth against the wall."
    (1 Samuel 25:34)

    God orders people to eat turds...
    "And thou shalt eat it as barley cakes, and thou shalt bake it with dung that cometh out of a man, in their sight. And the lord said: Even thus shall the children of Israel eat their defiled bread among the Gentiles, whither I will drive them."
    (Ezekiel 4:12-13)

    Husband ordered to chop off wife's hand if she helps him in a fight by grabbing his opponent's testicles...
    "[if two men are fighting] and the other's wife, willing to deliver her husband out of the hand of the stronger, shall put forth her hand, and take him by the secrets, thou shalt cut off her hand, neither shalt thou be moved with any pity in her regard."
    (Deuteronomy 25:11-12)

    I'll need to look into this book a little more methinks.
