What name is that soiled little freak using on your blog! No, actually forget it! I don't want to know! You two young Christian boys are busy naming all the animals looking for a mate. I won't bother you! Yikes! What a FILTHY Filthy book! Really for the morally and intellectually challenged! Samuel 1, Chapter 18, Verses 20-21. "20. And Michal Saul's daughter loved David: and they told Saul, and the thing pleased him. 21. And Saul said, I will give him her, that she may be a snare to him, and that the hand of the Philistines may be against him. Wherefore Saul said to David, Thou shalt this day be my son in law in the one of the twain. So far in our acquaintance with the Bible we have seen a father commit incest with his daughter; give her to a mob of brutal men "to do to her as was good in their eyes," and now we come to a new employment for her: she is used now to be a snare to her husband. Surely a fine outlook for a daughter to look forward to in time of marriage. To be wedded to a man not for love and honor and companionship, but to ensnare him. Before Saul would give his daughter Michal to David as his wife, he demanded a tribute from him, in the hope that in securing this tribute he would be killed; thus Saul would be relieved of the annoyance of the presence of David and live securely in the possession of his kingdom. The "God-like" attitude of the early Jews to one another is surely compatible with the idea of brotherhood we so anxiously long for to-day. Samuel 1, Chapter 18, Verses 22-25. 22. And Saul commanded his servants, saying, Commune with David secretly, and say, Behold, the king hath delight in thee, and all his servants love thee: now therefore be the king's son in law. 23. And Saul's servants spake those words in the ears of David. And David said, Seemeth it to you a light thing to be a king's son in law, seeing that I am a poor man, and lightly esteemed? 24. And the servants of Saul told him saying, On this manner spake David. 25. And Saul said, Thus shall ye say to David, The king desireth not any dowry, but a hundred foreskins of the Philistines, to be avenged of the king's enemies. But Saul thought to make David fall by the hand of the Philistines. Only the writers of the Bible could conceive such a hideous tribute. Not money, not obedience, not the skins of wild animals, but the foreskins of one hundred innocent men! No wonder Saul expected David to be killed in such a perilous undertaking. David "fell" for Saul's plot and was so overjoyed at the prospect of becoming the King's son-in-law that he unceremoniously doubled the tribute originally demanded by his prospective father-in-law, as we note from the following."
