Post by: ded2daworld on February 08, 2013, 07:08:37 PM
One letter or even the dot above the "i" can cahge the entire meaning in the hebrew.
Here's a big difference in one letter in America (Because american cows can read :laughing7:)

One thing is the same.  They are both destined to be consumed:  the chicken never expecting to become a man and the farmer never expecting to become God.

It's an old adage backed up by scientific research. "He who laughs...lasts" :laugh:

This reminds me of the book:  The Annoying by Bunny Hinder.

The farmer is god to the cow, holding the power of life and death in his hands ;o)

And yet the cow lives it's life in utter confusion.  The milk of cow-kindness is sucked out of her, and all she has to look forward too is shere bull.

Stop me if you've herd these before.  If they were really lucky, they would have four leafed cloven hooves.  Laz, smack me!! Please!!

While we're on the subject of cows, I was listening to this song by the Scottish band Mouth Music the other day, from their album mo-di.  The lyrics are based on a traditional Xhosa song, and it comes sooooo close to a Christian sense of redemption, but then, I like to see the stamp of God in every culture.  Of course, the blood of the cow does not redeem us, but the concept of redemption in blood is there, like an OT sensibility.

Spirit moving living breathing
Healing motion feeling devotion

Under the desert sun
Two hearts beat as one
Rhythm of the living drum
Pray for the rain to come
Blessings from the one
...Milking the cow

Behold the shifting sands
The riches of our land
Life flows through our hands
Beneath the darkened sky
Hear the spirit cry
...Milking the cow

To milk the cow is to praise the hand of God that moves before us

To feed the cow is to worship the spirit that breathes within us

To kill the cow is to accept the darkness deep within us

To spurn the cow is to spurn the gift of God that gives us life

Milk the cow and feel the rhythm that beats inside us

Touch the cow and feel the spirit that breathes within us

Kill the cow and feel the sorrow that lies before us

In blood we are born...blood of the cow redeems us

28 Whereupon the king took counsel, and made two calves of gold, and said unto them, It is too much for you to go up to Jerusalem: behold thy gods, O Israel, which brought thee up out of the land of Egypt.

29 And he set the one in Bethel, and the other put he in Dan.

30 And this thing became a sin: for the people went to worship before the one, even unto Dan.

I'm seriously thinking of becoming a vegetarian now.

So Eagle, would you say they were kowtowing to new gods?

Speaking as an ex-vegetarian (yup, seems there's always another thing I formerly was...), I can tell you that to some veg-heads, not eating meat is their gospel.  Some are almost rabid.

I would say God had a beef with them.
