    Ray is a Dinosaur, and I'm thin as a rake? Awesome!

    That's because Kaitlyn is awesome.

    (Even though she does tend to throw red meat at Ray :P)

    Close enough to be eating out of the palm of her hnd.

    Random tangent: can someone who knows their bible help me out with my discussion over at the Swamp beteen AllFiredUp and I? We're discussing Altruism, and AFU contends tht God is a perfect example because he doesn't require anything but repentance and faith. I'm certain their are passages where God explicitly says "worship me" and "glorify me" but I don't know my bible all that well.

    Jesus said to him, "Away from me, Satan! For it is written: 'Worship the Lord your God, and serve him only.' " (Matthew 4:10)

    Therefore, I urge you, brothers, in view of God's mercy, to offer your bodies as living sacrifices, holy and pleasing to God—this is your spiritual act of worship. (Romans 12:1)

    Do not follow other gods to serve and worship them; do not provoke me to anger with what your hands have made. Then I will not harm you. (Jeremiah 25:6)

    You shall not bow down to them or worship them; for I, the LORD your God, am a jealous God, punishing the children for the sin of the fathers to the third and fourth generation of those who hate me (Deuteronomy 5:9)

    But if you or your sons turn away from me and do not observe the commands and decrees I have given you and go off to serve other gods and worship them, then I will cut off Israel from the land I have given them and will reject this temple I have consecrated for my Name. Israel will then become a byword and an object of ridicule among all peoples. (1 Kings 9:5-7)

    All of those are NIV. It is not explicitly said, but if you worship anything but him, YHWH says he will kill you.

    That illustration looks familiar; something from Edgar Rice Burroughs?

    @theshaggy -

    AFU would be wrong of course. But all passages I can think of would more align 'worship' with 'obedience' (as one interpretation).

    The FSM will save me from the false YHWH god.

    I have as much fear of FSM as I do of YHWH ;)

    He can keep his noodly appendages to himself. I doubt they are tentacles and more than likely genticles!

    Thanks, folks.

    I always find that I can get one round, maybe two before I need Bible quotes. Which I don't have.

    @ LAOF

    It reminded me of Dinotopia, actually.

    (The book. Not sure there's a movie but one can usually assume any remotely entertaining children's book will have been made into a horrible film "adaptation" at some point, so just to forestall...)
