Comments on: Man Cuts Off, Microwaves His Own Hand Because Bible Says “And if your right hand causes you to sin, cut it off and throw it away” http://www.badcyclopedia.com/man-cuts-off-microwaves-his-own-hand-because-bible-says-and-if-your-right-hand-causes-you-to-sin-cut-it-off-and-throw-it-away/ Cyclopedia Of Bad Things Sun, 14 Mar 2010 04:26:54 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.3.3 By: Kory http://www.badcyclopedia.com/man-cuts-off-microwaves-his-own-hand-because-bible-says-and-if-your-right-hand-causes-you-to-sin-cut-it-off-and-throw-it-away/#comment-699 Kory Tue, 04 Mar 2008 18:34:30 +0000 http://www.badcyclopedia.com/man-cuts-off-microwaves-his-own-hand-because-bible-says-and-if-your-right-hand-causes-you-to-sin-cut-it-off-and-throw-it-away/#comment-699 I'm christian, and I don't really appretiate the people who say religion is a mental illness. Because even if you say you don't believe in everything you still believe in something if you catch my drift More on subject, the Bible is rarely to be taken literally. It is filled with metaphors. My interpretation of when it says "if your right hand causes you to sin cut it off." is just a dramatic way of saying 'If your doing something bad, and you know it. Its better to stop doing that action and to pray for forgiveness than to stay bitter with god and to do that action.' He may have an illness, but it certainly isnt christianity.

Is a little to much for them, perhaps Christianity has evolved to a more self philosophy rather then an absolute religion, everyone has opinion's about their way to use life, if you're using the bible as a reference, do not call yourself Christian. That is no more then digging for daily life solutions or choices. If you were Christian, this man would be completely rational. However.. given you don't it'd be a lot more productive, and beneficial for the rest of the world, if you'd simple keep your life opinions to yourself, not force others how they choose to live their life, and do not apply absolute ownership over anything, such as a god, w/out proof, or evidence. Christianity if could possibly even be considered this, would be a 'theory' nothing more then an idea, supported by arguments, that make it explainable. In which case, that's hard to even see as a correct statement, being the earth was believed to be flat back then. As far as we can visually see, we have come to terms w/ the earth being round. A book at which most have not even read, nothing more then an annual service(church), or a belief taken from those around you(perhaps during your childhood.. you accepted god, because your parents did). But, I am not telling you any of this to mock you, just don't bull-shit people w/ your personal life prophecy. (This man is allowed to cut his hand off if he wants, it's his hands. The only problem is when he cuts of another's. Don't be so demanding from someone other then yourself.)

Sadly, I've known some people like this. This one guy I went to school with, he was putting himself in and out of mental homes for a long time, and felt that the bible was his only way to redeem himself. They'll take anything the bible says literally because they're just desperate and seeking hope. However, the guy I knew was violent to others more than himself... almost attacked my sister. We had to have security guards and cameras put in our school for the sole purpose of keeping him out. I hope this poor guy will be alright. And when you think about it from the pessimistic point of view, being faithful in anything, religion or not, is a pretty crazy thing to do. Because you're probably just doomed to fail and be disappointed in the end.

He would go to hell, doesn't matter what he does. If his hand caused him to sin, and he didn't have control over it anymore, then cutting it off was probably the right thing to do. I have no explanation for why he cooked it in the microwave.
