In part three we will deal with the figure of the satan as it plays out in the book of Job. Terms change and meanings of words change over time and can influence the attitude and date the time of writing.

Head below the orange thingy to continue:

Sorry about the delay in writing more on the Book of Job. I was diagnosed with Ovarian Cancer in November and have been dealing with Chemo since then. However, I am feeling much better so I shall continue with this study as my health allows. If you would like to review Part I you will find it here: http://www.dailykos.com/...

In this part we will discuss the idea of Retribution Theology and how it affects us today.

Last summer we had a bad thunderstorm that knocked out our electricity for several hours. After the storm ended, I was talking to my neighbor on my porch when a tiny black kitten came running up onto my porch and ran into my house. She never left. I named her Thunder Kitty.

In the last several months, I have heard the fundies taking the Bible out of context and literally. Both of these things are misinterpretations of the Bible. The Jewish writers always had many layers to their writings and so if you just take what they wrote literally, you miss the real meaning of their message. Below the mysterious orange symbol I will illustrate what taking the Bible, especially the poetry literally means.

For many years I wrestled with the Book of Job in the Bible. It is a controversial book and many have tried to pin it down. Some of what I read I disagreed with as I thought others cut out the heart of the book. I thought I would share some of what I have written about it as I find it had a strong message about suffering and redemption.

I will stretch my reflections over the next few weeks as there is too much to put in one article. I hope some of you will find meaning for your lives in this study and I hope others will find a better depth of understanding.

I have been watching the "Christian" Right in the South and Midwest saying they should have rights to discriminate and behave in any hateful manner they choose. This troubles me. They like bringing up all kinds of Old Testament reasons for their behavior and use these for reasons that they should get special religious protections.

There are two companies that I have observed lately that have jumped into the realm of sexism with both feet. They are not at all subtle about it and I am very offended by their ads.

I am a big fan of the show Survivor. I have watched it since it's beginning. I have always found it an interesting study of the psychology of team building and success. Step over the orange roughie for more.

I don't understand where Irv Halter is coming from. He is running against Doug Lambourn in Colorado.

Crossroads doesn't think we will notice. In the new add against Mark Udall, I noticed.

All the panic over Ebola from a small group of people that were exposed to Mr. Duncan is ridiculous. There are many things much more dangerous than the chance that we will in some fantasy world catch Ebola from people all the way in Texas.
