So when Jesus quotes the Deuteronomy in his exchange with the devil, he says, you should serve the Lord your God and serve him only.

Well, in Deuteronomy, the verse finishes and take your oaths in his name.

You should swear.

Cursing.

Paul says in Galatians, if we are an angel from heaven, preach to you a different gospel, let him be accursed.

God damn that guy.

Vulgarity.

When Isaiah says, all our righteousness is as filthy rags.

The Hebrew, it's referring to a used menstrual cloth.

Okay, it's vulgar and religiously taboo on top of that.

So highly offensive language.

And then obscenity, when Ezekiel goes after the idolatry of the Israelites and he compares them lusting after the Assyrians, whose genitals are like

Donkeys and who ejaculate like horses.

That's not something that's going to be read in the scripture reading Sunday morning, likely.

It probably doesn't come up in Sunday school lessons, but it is in the Bible.

And so what I want to be, and this is me being a good Protestant, I want to be a Bible guy.

And so if I have prohibitions of all four categories, and I have examples of all four categories, there must be a principle

das mich ermöglicht, zu beurteilen, wann es schuldig sein würde und wann es nicht schuldig sein würde.

Wann es rechtlich wäre, wann es unrechtlich wäre.

Ich erhalte freiwillig, dass Christen nicht wie Flüchtlinge kussieren sollten.
