Dishonorable Discharges
Leviticus 15-18

Yahweh talks about genital leakages. Because it wasn't extensive enough before, we get more instructions on killing animals. Sexual no-nos.

pride
LOVE IS LOVE. FUCK OFF, "god"! Happy PRIDE Month, EVERYone!

Leviticus 18:22: Sexual Relations:

You shall not lie with a male as with a woman; it is an abomination.

rusty
Now we know where the idiom, "Out of sight, out of mind" cums from!
@ 28:03, Rusty saw The Light...

Multiple Biblical References So Far:

Anytime one is dirty, tainted, discharging due to some Sexually Transmitted Infection, or blasting out semen - just wait until evening and you'll be clean. What happens at evening time? The Sun goes down. It gets dark. There's no lights. You can't see anything. You must be clean. Hence..."Out of sight, out of mind."

The medical community used vast amounts of amazing SCIENCE to determine that the washing of hands can greatly reduce the transmission of illness!
@ 30:35, Scott saw The Light...

Leviticus 15:11:

"All those whom the one with the discharge touches without his having rinsed his hands in water shall wash their clothes and bathe in water and be unclean until the evening."

Instead of, or perhaps, in addition to, posting "Employees Must Wash Hands Before Returning To Work", they should just quote Leviticus. Then, just maybe, you filthy animals that don't wash your hands after using the restroom will stop spreading preventable illnesses!

scott
Why do people project their blame on to goats? What the hell did goats ever do to anyone?!? Have you ever even seen Baby Goat Yoga?!? And the way they climb, head-butt everything, and eat anything! Who would want to burden such animals with suffering they don't deserve? Oh, right...god...
@ 40:36, Scott saw The Light...

Leviticus 16:7:

He shall take the two goats and set them before the Lord at the entrance of the tent of meeting, and Aaron shall cast lots on the two goats, one lot for the Lord and the other lot for Azazel. Aaron shall present the goat on which the lot fell for the Lord and offer it as a purification offering, but the goat on which the lot fell for Azazel shall be presented alive before the Lord to make atonement over it, that it may be sent away into the wilderness to Azazel.

@ 2:48, Rusty says:
There's something called the Federalist Society - it's kinda like a think tank for right-wingers. They have a list of their preferred judges. (In response to Scott's query about whether the three recently appointed Supreme Courts Justices would have been chosen regardless of who the Republican President was.)

Wikipedia says:

The Federalist Society has played a key role in suggesting judicial nominees to President Donald Trump; it vetted President Trump's list of potential U.S. Supreme Court nominees and, as of March 2020, 43 out of 51 of President Trump's appellate court nominees were current or former members of the society.

Knock. Knock. Who's there? Homosexual Rape Gang. Please don't rape this strange man I have taken in. Please, take his concubine and my virgin daughter and do what you will to them. Alright, just take the concubine and rape her to death.

Judges 19:22-30: Gibeah's Crime:

...the men of the city, a perverse lot, surrounded the house..."Bring out the man who came into your house, so that we may have intercourse with him." "No, my brothers, do not act so wickedly. Since this man is my guest, do not do this vile thing. Here are my virgin daughter and his concubine...Ravish them and do whatever you want to them, but against this man do not do such a vile thing." ...They wantonly raped her and abused her all through the night until the morning...

Judges 21: The Benjaminites Saved from Extinction:

...not one of the inhabitants of Jabesh-gilead was there..."Go, put the inhabitants of Jabesh-gilead to the sword, including the women and the little ones...they found among the inhabitants of Jabesh-gilead four hundred young virgins...when the young women of Shiloh come out to dance...come out of the vineyards and...carry off a wife...and go to the land of Benjamin

Judges: 13 3-5:

And the angel of the Lord appeared to the woman and said to her, "Although you are barren, having borne no children, you shall conceive and bear a son. Now be careful not to drink wine or strong drink or to eat anything unclean, for you shall conceive and bear a son.

Joshua 10:24:

When they brought the kings out to Joshua, Joshua summoned all the Israelites and said to the chiefs of the warriors who had gone with him, “Come near, put your feet on the necks of these kings.” Then they came near and put their feet on their necks

mantle
"Dismantle" came from The Bible! Ya see, Achan swiped a mantle - he DISmantled a house!
In Episode 59 @ 38:42, Scott saw The Light...

Joshua 7:1-26 & Dictionary.com:

Dictionary.com says dismantle means: To strip of furnishings or equipment. Since the mantle "stolen" by Achan is the first reference to stripped furnishings, it only stands to reason that "dismantle" would be chosen as the word to mean such a thing.
