Numbers 25:3-5 mentions that the Israelites joined in worshipping Baal-Peor, a local Moabite deity when they engaged in the debauching orgy of committing whoredom with the Moabite women

To put things into context, back in Numbers 24, Balaam had uttered blessings over Israel three times, and Balak the king of Moab wasn't happy about it at all: Num. 24:10-13: And Balak's anger was kindled against Balaam, and he smote his hands together: and Balak said unto Balaam, "I called thee...

Even though Lot made some short-sighted choices in choosing the valley for pasture land without considering the moral decadence of the inhabitants, Abraham manages to convince God to spare Sodom and Gomorrah if as few as 10 righteous people can be found there. Unfortunately, Lot's wife is so...

Ezekiel gives a harsher view when he (allegorically) likens the fallen Jerusalem to a harlot in chapter 16, vv. 48-51, and this was around the time when the inhabitants of Judah were taken to Babylon by Nebuchadnezzar c. 587 B.C.: As I live, saith the Lord God, Sodom thy sister hath not done...

The setting: Sodom Man #1: I'll take the acute angle! Man #2: I'll take the right one. Man #3: Aww, I wish there was an obtuse one for me.

And now for a bit of nutty humor (pun intended): Knock knock. Who's there? Cash. Cash who? Gesundheit!

It's a web series that was launched on The Nerdist Channel on April 2, 2012 and I just now found out about it several minutes ago while looking up Henson Alternative on Wikipedia, and it turns out that Henson Alternative started up in 2006, with Happytime Murders being H.A.'s first movie...

In case you've ever wondered: Real nuts are the kind that grow on trees like chestnuts, acorns, almonds, walnuts, Brazil nuts, cashews, and even coconuts (whose tree is a relative of palm trees) etc., while peanuts are grown and planted in the ground instead of on trees, and they're closely...

It would feel pretty uncomfortable if you were about to eat some cherries, only to find they forgot to take the pits out when you start chewing...

Holy deja vu, does this sound familiar? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Simian_Undercover_Detective_Squad

People may have asked the same thing about Leonard Part 6, a forgettable flop of a movie which came out long before Bill Cosby was convicted of aggravated indecent assault, but that's another issue I won't even touch with a 39 1/2 foot pole.

So far, this film (which is the debut of Henson Alternative, a banner of the Jim Henson Company that specializes in adult content), resulted in Sesame Workshop filing a lawsuit against STX for using their trademark in a film which Sesame Workshop is not involved with, which was thrown out by...

Welcome to the Big Hero 6 discussion thread, where you're welcome to discuss anything related to the Big Hero 6 franchise (the movie, animated series, etc.)

in the book of Jonah, God demonstrates that his love and concern is for all peoples: Jonah is called to preach in Nineveh, the capital city of Assyria, and rather than go to Assyria, Jonah takes a cargo ship from Joppa headed westward to Tarshish. This doesn't work, as God sends a storm towards...

At the beginning, Satan is hinting that Job may be a fair-weather believer who praises God, and Satan hints that Job praises God who blessed the works of his hands and may be in it for the blessings, but would curse God if those things were taken away (which we later discover to be untrue)...

This may be speculative guessing, yet it seems (to me at least) that Brandon the Bear and A Real Magic Skeleton tend to have a rather "intimate" friendship. In "Plaza Prom", ARMS and Brandon take turns exchanging each other's corsage after failing to show up with dates. In "T.K.O.", Brandon...
