I wonder if those stories even matter, like they are from a culture so far removed from us (over 2 thousand years) that the lessons probably shouldn't be hard interpreted.
We wouldn't like people to have differing opinions about stuff? Everyone should believe what we believe, think what we think. /s

I have no idea what point you're trying to make, or what I wrote to provoke your angry tone.
All I'm saying is that (for example) if Moses supposedly wrote the first five books of the Bible and he lived circa 1200-1500 BC (various estimates mentioned by Wikipedia), but the oldest surviving copy of those books is from 100 BC, that's 1000+ years of potential change that we have no way of knowing about.

"So Steve, what did you think of my poetry?"
"Oh, ehrm, well Dr. Weird, it was uh..."
"Haha, you fool, it was bad on purpose, and I'll waste so many people's time with it at the open mic next week. mwawhaha"

angry tone.
Sarcastic tone, you're reading what I wrote in an angry voice. Try reading with a happy voice.
thatโs 1000+ years of potential change that we have no way of disproving.
What if that's not the point?
"Oh, but it's not exactly what that person said!"
So what? Taking sentences out of context is bad interpretation anyway, especially if we aren't reading the original language with the original cultural context (again, which was over 2 thousand years ago).
You're arguing for the letter of the law, I'm arguing for the spirit.

No, fuck right off. That BS attitude is a big part of what killed reddit. Fake shit that tries to pass itself off as real is lame as fuck and insulting. With pro wrestling or plays or movies, you go in expecting it to be fake. It doesn't really matter if the wrestlers don't have any beef, you still get to see 20 midgets attacking a bullfighter. The lie is just the set up, not the main event. But shit like this post? The lie is the entire thing. Take it away and you just have someone's shitty, unclever, poetry that isn't interesting or funny enough to stand on its own.

What is the entertainment from the meme? Is it that "Auto-translate did this"? Or is it "This is All Star as if it was a passage from the Bible"?
If it's the latter (which I personally found amusing) then why are you getting your panties is a twist that it wasn't a computer that did this?

That meme always drove me crazy because "fuck bitches, get money" should be translated to "copulate with women, acquire currency", not "disregard women".

"Fuck" can be translated to "disregard": "Fuck that.'

It would take like 10 times the effort to fake it than it would to just find an Aramaic translator.
