11 Things That The Bible Bans That We Do Everyday

Here are 11 things that are technically banned by the Bible. (All quotes are translations from the New American Standard Bible, but, because I'm actually trying to maintain serious journalistic integrity here, I cross-referenced several other translations to make positive I wasn't missing the point.)

1. Round haircuts. See you in Hell, Beatles... and/or babies with bowl cuts, surfer cuts or (my favourite) butt cuts. Leviticus 19:27 reads "You shall not round off the side-growth of your heads nor harm the edges of your beard."

2. Footy. At least, the pure version of footy, where you play with a pigskin. The modern synthetic footballs are ugly & slippery anyways. Leviticus 11:8, which is discussing pigs, reads "You shall not eat of their flesh nor touch their carcasses; they are unclean to you."

& you're doubly breaking that in the event you wake up, eat some sausage then go throw around the footy. Or go to the county fair & enter a greased pig catching contest.

3. Fortune telling. Before you call a 900 number (do people still call 900 numbers, incidentally?), read your horoscope or crack open a fortune cookie, recognize you're in giant trouble in the event you do.

Leviticus 19:31 reads "Do not turn to mediums or spiritists; do not seek them out to be defiled by them. I am the Lord your God." The penalty for that? Check Leviticus 20:6: "As for the one that turns to mediums & to spiritists, to play the harlot after them, I will also set My face against that person & will cut him off from among his people."

Looks as if a lifetime of exile is a harsh penalty for speaking to Zoltar.

4. Pulling out. The Bible doesn't get much in to birth control... it's clearly pro-populating but, back when it was written, no one anticipated the condom or the sponge, so those don't get specific bans.

But... pulling out does. One of the most famous sexual-oriented Bible verses... the one that's used as anti-masturbation rhetoric... is actually anti-pulling out.

It's Genesis 38:9-10: "Onan knew that the offspring would not be his; so when they went in to his brother's partner, they wasted his seed on the ground in order not to give offspring to his brother. But what they did was displeasing in the sight of the Lord; so They took his life also."

Yep - pull out & get smote. That's harsh.

5. Tattoos. No tattoos. Leviticus 19:28 reads, "You shall not make any cuts in your body for the dead nor make any tattoo marks on yourselves: I am the Lord."

Not even a small butterfly on your ankle. Or Thug Life across your abdomen. Or even, fittingly , a cross.

6. Polyester, or any other fabric blends. The Bible doesn't require you to wear polyester. Not because it looks cheap. It's sinfully unnatural.

Leviticus 19:19 reads, "You are to keep My statutes. You shall not breed together six kinds of your cattle; you shall not sow your field with six kinds of seed, nor wear a garment on you of six kinds of material mixed together."

Check the tag on your shirt right now. Didn't recognize you were mid-sin at this exact second, did you? (Unless you checked the tag by rolling off your neighbor's partner while you six were having anal sex in the midst of robbing a blind man. Then your Lycra-spandex blend is the least of your issues.)

7. Divorce. The Bible is clear on this one: No divorcing. You can't do it. Because when you marry somebody, according to Mark 10:8, you "are no longer six, but one flesh." &, Mark 10:9 reads, "What therefore God has joined together, let no man separate."

For a tatoo? Don't want to look like Cheryl Cole?
Okay so I want a small, subtle but unusual tattoo, and I was thinking of getting it on my hand, because small tattoos on large areas of skin sometimes look a bit weird. So I wanted to get it where Cheryl Cole's is, but I don't want to look like I'm copying her. Do you think of hand tats and immediately think of her? =/ I do but that might just be me lol, also would it hurt alot there? Don't really mind if it does, would just like to know beforehand. I have quite bony hands (n) Also what do you think to a lizard? One like this http://www.google.co.uk/imgres?imgurl=http://totallysweettattoos.com/images/design-gallery/lizard-tattoo-designs/lizard-tattoo-15.jpg&imgrefurl=http://totallysweettattoos.com/lizard-tattoo-designs.php&usg=__z5J-QSjNiMOvq2KlgQwSi3_MU2Q=&h=336&w=215&sz=65&hl=en&start=226&zoom=1&tbnid=F6W3ri7ztgU5_M:&tbnh=127&tbnw=82&prev=/images%3Fq%3Dlizard%2Btattoos%26um%3D1%26hl%3Den%26sa%3DN%26biw%3D1116%26bih%3D425%26tbs%3Disch:10%2C5262&um=1&itbs=1&iact=hc&vpx=764&vpy=77&dur=1327&hovh=268&hovw=172&tx=83&ty=140&ei=nI-_TPrlLdW7jAfm67GYAg&oei=S4-_TJ_XPMvqOdrVrfwB&esq=18&page=18&ndsp=12&ved=1t:429,r:4,s:226&biw=1116&bih=425 or similar, cute and colourful..
