Then sue Lego. You can put thoes things into some funny positions making it look like simulated sex.

Even better than plain old lego sex, is lego beastiality.

you must visit the brick testament: the bible depicted with legos.

sure, it's the bible so it's a bit raunchy at times but each story is conveniently labeled so you'll know if it contains nudity, sexual content, violence or cursing.. whew!

Another site comes to mind

The Brick Testament

to the Brick Testament! And yup, totally agree with parent.

What god(s) are you worshipping?

Now, go read the Holy Bible, Dt 13:13-17, lest you are not killed also.

Amen

here is another link ... with a more um blasphemous bent http://www.thebricktestament.com/

Really? Did you skip Deuteronomy?

21:18: If a man have a stubborn and rebellious son, which will not obey the voice of his father, or the voice of his mother, and that, when they have chastened him, will not hearken unto them:
21:19: Then shall his father and his mother lay hold on him, and bring him out unto the elders of his city, and unto the gate of his place;
21:20: And they shall say unto the elders of his city, This our son is stubborn and rebellious, he will not obey our voice; he is a glutton, and a drunkard.
21:21: And all the men of his city shall stone him with stones, that he die: so shalt thou put evil away from among you; and all Israel shall hear, and fear.

Or, in logo-illustrated form for the biblical-language-challenged.

The POWER OF ------ compels YOU!!!!

Absolutely.

I think you're all kind of missing the point. Who cares why Eve was punished? I find it terribly unjust that all humans are to be judged by the mistakes of one. Put another way, if your great-great-grandfather was a murderer, should you be kept in prison? According to God... sure.

And to anyone who thinks that I'm taking it too literally, be aware that God repeats this philosphy later. The "he" is Yahweh himself speaking:

Exodus 34:6-7

6 And he passed in front of Moses, proclaiming, "The LORD , the LORD , the compassionate and gracious God, slow to anger, abounding in love and faithfulness,
7 maintaining love to thousands, and forgiving wickedness, rebellion and sin. Yet he does not leave the guilty unpunished; he punishes the children and their children for the sin of the fathers to the third and fourth generation."

Know your bible. Know what you are placing all your faith in. Start here. It's not only educational, it's fun.

Oh, and before you go off on how the new testament changes everything think long and hard about why that is and what it means that God makes mistakes. If after all that you still believe every word in the bible without question, then consider yourself very lucky.

Cheers.

Brick Testament.

...puts a humorous slant on the needless idiocy and barbarism of the bible, here, but only just.

Not as fun as your idea, but still quite funny: The Brick Testament. Give it a careful read.

speaking of Jar-jar, I bet you didn't know he was in
the book of Exodus, did you? :-)

I hate to reply to one person in particular, but this "too many specialized bricks" is a real red herring.

"too many" for what? to build some structure that is in your head? perhaps. But that isn't the only purpose of LEGO.

Lots of play involves things like role-playing and acting out stories. Look at a real seven year old playing with one of these "non-creative" LEGOs. Jar-jar will be playing some role in a story that has very little in common with episode 1. (the real Ep 1 was much worse than an average seven-year-old's story, but I digress...)

One who says Jar-Jar has "no real place other than in a star wars scene" is the one lacking in creativity. Jar-jar can go wherever your imagination takes him. Are you under some sort of Lucas mind-control or Star Wars orthodoxy? Do you feel pain when your Jar-jar story line differs from canon? The whole concept of canon is a restriction on your mind. Let it go! A seven-year old doesn't care.

It's also hard to build the structure of your dream with crayons or a tea set, but that doesn't make crayons or tea sets a bad toy. And even some of the so-called specialized blocks can be used in surprising ways. Look at the the brick testament, for instance.

check out the last question on the faq :

9. Is he really a reverend?

'Reverend', when used before someone's name, does not imply any particular position in a church. There is really no such thing as 'a reverend'. The adjective is used by people such as ministers and priests, to show that they are revered members of their community. So the question really is, does anybody really revere The Rev. Brendan Powell Smith?

They should look at hiring this guy. The comedy more than makes up for any lack of technical skill.

>With violent video games we are teaching younger generations that killing little figures on the screen is nothing bad.

Have you read the bible lately? That thing is FULL of HORRIBLE stories.

Seriously, man, killing a computer character is nothing compared to teaching a kid that a woman's body is only worth 50 silver pieces, and that "pulling out" is punishable by graphic death. Hell, let's not forget about when you should stone your children to death! Worse yet, they teach young children that this is all normal, and that it all really happened! And they've been doing it for over 2000 years!

CRAZY SHIT THAT.

>In the past you had to have a very good reason to fight with someone.

Yeah. For example, they could be a christian. In which case, you have to slay them (graphically, of course!) using a sword.

>Soon no soldier will ever see a speck of blood. They will only shoot vectorized figures on the screen. And because they have grown up with killing people on the computer screen they won't find this wrong.

I'd take that in a heartbeat over what used to be sanctioned. Things really have only gone forward in society with regards to violence. Forward being less violent and more tolerant.
