Muddy hymnals and some bootmarks where you'd been

After [livejournal.com profile] shirei_shibolim:

You know the Bible 92%!
 

Wow! You are awesome! You are a true Biblical scholar, not just a hearer but a personal reader! The books, the characters, the events, the verses - you know it all! You are fantastic!

Some of the wrong answers would make great stories themselves...

The Chinese take-out would definitely explain a lot. And then, Mary and Martha living in San Francisco (though somehow Philadelphia amuses me more), God being the partying friends of the Prodigal Son (or the Prodigal Son himself, which would explain the capitals and a lot of theological conundra and mesh interestingly with Prometheus), Jesus telling stories about Donald Duck, Joshua announcing that his house will serve the turkey/establishment, Henry VIII as the first King of Israel (actually not the weirdest historical analog for Saul), Jesus raising Rip van Winkle from the dead, Esther as a narrative of the Apocalypse, "Trust in the Lord with all your heart, and lean not on your elbows" (I think there's actually a song like that), King David's grandmother Lydia, Jesus walking the Via Dolorosa (or wandering around the streets of Jerusalem) with his disciples after the Ressurection, Israel bicyling to Egypt (someone told me once that for many Israelis Yom Kippur is now a biking holiday; that would explain it). And number 7 somehow just makes me picture Jehoshaphat, Moses, Noah, Paul all together on some gameshow team.

You know, the more I think about it, the more awesome the idea of God as his own Prodigal Son really is.
