Samson: A Cautionary Tale

Samson: A Cautionary Tale

Here's the tl:dr for the lazy: Judges does not present Samson as a hero. The context and structure of the book, as well as the context and structure of Samson's story all point to the same thing: Samson was a self-absorbed human being manipulated, not used, by God.  He is an example to be avoided, not upheld. 

OldTestamentTrump on Women

"I really understand beauty and I will tell you Esther is not. I own the Miss Persia & Miss Mesopotamia pageants. I do understand beauty."

"It really doesn’t matter what the scribes write as long as you’ve got a young & beautiful and sturdy piece of ass."


On the rape of Dinah: “I just start kissing them. It’s like a magnet. Just kiss. I don’t even wait.”

On the rape of Tamar: “Grab them by the pussy. You can do anything.”

On the rape of the un-named woman in Judges: “And when you’re a star they let you do it. You can do anything.”

On the rape of Bathsheba: “I moved on her like a bitch, but I couldn’t get there. I’ll admit it. I did try and fuck her. She was married.”


In his second public debate: 

Levite moderator: Trump Ben-Fred, did you rape Dinah?

“You know, in a world where Assyrians are chopping off head, & Egyptians are drowning babies in the Nile, where there are wars and rumors of war, and the Philistines are encroaching on our western shores. I tell you. I will be the next David, you better believe it. “

Levite moderator: The question was did you rape Dinah?

"China."


Sadly, more to come, we're sure.

"...Technically Malachi said God is smearing shit on your face and we’re just quoting him. And if you believe in divine inspiration of Scripture, then God told Malachi to write about God being a shit-smearer..."
