God Hates Shrimp!

Little known fact: God hates shrimp.



According to Leviticus 11:9-12:

These shall ye eat of all that are in the waters: whatsoever hath fins and scales in the waters, in the seas, and in the rivers, them shall ye eat.
And all that have not fins and scales in the seas, and in the rivers, of all that move in the waters, and of any living thing which is in the waters, they shall be an abomination unto you:
They shall be even an abomination unto you; ye shall not eat of their flesh, but ye shall have their carcases in abomination.
Whatsoever hath no fins nor scales in the waters, that shall be an abomination unto you.

I stumbled across this website by accident, but before the religious fanatics start mobilising, the site isn't really about God hating shrimp, it's more about how there's a lot in the old testament that doesn't apply anymore, and that the new testament put down a new set of rules.
They use this as a basis to suggest that God isn't actually against homosexuality, because according to the site Jesus never spoke out against it.

Interesting stuff, read the about section for more information on the site.
