Why weep? Probably did you a favor. Who would want to spend eternity with THOSE people?

What ammonite does the Bible reference?

[–] [email protected] 33 points 4 weeks ago* (last edited 3 weeks ago) (1 children)

Had to look it up myself, but the Ammonites were a Semitic-speaking people that the Israelites hated because they didn't worship their god

Most of the old testament is just the story of how the Israelites genocided all other peoples in the area so they could settle there.

Honestly I can't remember if they outright genocided other peoples in the area, but once the Yahwists went from monolatry (worship of one god without believing that others' gods are false) to monotheism, iirc it did cause more conflicts between ancient Israel and Judah and their neighbors. Been a while since I last actually read about this stuff

I'm pretty sure I'm not a cephalopod. Not 100% sure though, you never know with me

A creationist once told me that evolution could only be true if my grandfather was a velociraptor...

So in that instance I may be a handful of generations away from the caphalopodes

Nautilis was one of my favorite Monster Rancher 2 monsters (The joke is they look just like ammonites)
