An excellent candiate for divine bombing! Here's something else Jesus might bomb - fig trees!
<font size="2" face="Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif">I just noticed something - if God wrote the Bible, wouldn't it have perfect grammar? It's not kosher to begine every sentence with "And" is it? [img]redface.gif[/img]And on the morrow, when they were come from Bethany, (Jesus) was hungry: And seeing a fig tree afar off having leaves, he came, if haply he might find any thing thereon: and when he came to it, he found nothing but leaves; for the time of figs was not yet. And Jesus answered and said unto it, No man eat fruit of thee hereafter for ever. And his disciples heard it.
... And in the morning, as they passed by, they saw the fig tree dried up from the roots. And Peter calling to remembrance saith unto him, Master, behold, the fig tree which thou cursedst is withered away. And Jesus answering saith unto them, Have faith in God.
Mark 11: 12-22
Uh-oh, we're in HUGE trouble if the Bible was written perfectly, then translators screwed it up! How did God allow that to happen? Perhaps Jesus would bomb language translators in his infinite mercy?
