AFA Fundie Blogger Sez: "Bible Ignored, Trainer Dies" (RE Orlando Killer Whale Incident)
They never fail to amuse, do they?

Bible ignored, trainer dies
Date: 2/25/2010

You are aware by now that a 12,000 pound killer whale at SeaWorld Orlando killed his trainer Dawn Brancheau yesterday by pulling her into a pool and dragging her around until she drowned, in front of a crowd of stunned guests.

Chalk another death up to animal rights insanity and to the ongoing failure of the West to take counsel on practical matters from the Scripture.

~snip~

If the counsel of the Judeo-Christian tradition had been followed, Tillikum would have been put out of everyone's misery back in 1991 and would not have had the opportunity to claim two more human lives.

Says the ancient civil code of Israel, "When an ox gores a man or woman to death, the ox shall be stoned, and its flesh shall not be eaten, but the owner shall not be liable." (Exodus 21:28)

So, your animal kills somebody, your moral responsibility is to put that animal to death. You have no moral culpability in the death, because you didn't know the animal was going to go postal on somebody.

But, the Scripture soberly warns, if one of your animals kills a second time because you didn't kill it after it claimed its first human victim, this time you die right along with your animal. To use the example from Exodus, if your ox kills a second time, "the ox shall be stoned, and its owner also shall be put to death." (Exodus 21:29)

4. Well, *I* was waiting for the "My broad brush fucking rocks
because I know every Christian is JUST LIKE THIS GUY" crowd.

I guess I'm just luckier than you are.

3. Just tell them Tilikum rolled a big fat one. He's all good now.

5. They assume all animals are the same intelligence.
Whales and dolphins are allegedly smarter than humans because they have bigger brains, although we have problems finding this out. They can't do human speech and don't have opposable thumbs.

Dr. John Lilly did the pioneering research in this area.

6. The bible also says that pi=3 and bats are birds.
Which is why smart people don't give a flying fuck at a rolling donut what the bible says.

7. What about that story about Jonah?
I'm sure the blogger is advocating stoning all the non-virgins as well?
