Okay, in the "nutty as a metric ton of peanut brittle" department, we have this:

Are cats for true Christians?

"First, let us consider what most scholars agree is the etymology (word derivation) for the English term 'cat'. When analyzed with the Latin 'felis cattus domesticus', the original Koine Greek is 'cur.io huma bes-tia', means 'a contemporary housecat with all of its beastly identifying characteristics and behavior.' A faithful servant of Jehovah would quickly notice that the nature of a cat is so marked as being 'beastly'. The Bible makes clear reference to this condition when describing parts of Satan's organizations, both past and present. For instance, consider the fearsome 'beasts' as described in the book of Daniel or the 'scarlet colored wild beast' in Rev. 17:3. The demons entered the swine when rebuked by Jesus showing the potential harm and malevolent spirit control to which a Christian may be potentially exposed. Lest we forget the story of Nebuchadnezzar and the condition of God's enemy when being humbled by Jehovah, the student of God's Holy word would ask - is it by accident that the Bible in the book of Daniel describes his experience as a 'beast' of the field? Hardly so!

Clearly, the Bible - by using this kind of terminology - shows beyond any reasonable doubt that the basic nature of cats, while created perfect by God, has become evil or 'beastlike' since the fall of Adam six thousand years ago, and more probably, since the Great Flood of Noah's time (c2350 B.C.E.). This is a development of the condition borne by the 'Original Serpent', the 'Great Dragon' Lucifer himself. (Gen. 3:1) Indeed, modern studies of classification of cats, while not necessarily being reliable as they may be based on the discredited 'theory' of evolution, strongly associate felines with serpents (despite some external differences in physiology and morphology, which confuse those who do not study these matters deeply)."


Please tell me this is a joke......

Cats don't make an appearance in the Protestant Bible. In the Catholic Apocrypha there's a comment that you can tell an idol is not a god because birds build nests in it and cats lounge on them.

The Greek word for a cat is "ailuros", not that it appears in the New Testament at all. "Bestia" is a Latin word. This writer needs to realize crack is bad.

Well, my household is okay, since we have seven (7) cats. If we had six (6), we'd obviously be d**ned to h*ll, since six (6) is the Number of the Beast!!! (Well, a third of it, anyway...) Seven (7), however, is the Holy Number of God, indicating completion and perfection. This is why spaying and neutering is so important, as it guarantees that your cats are de-sixed.

Now, back to that bridge I was telling you about...

We're heathens at my house so the cat fits right in.

Don't fret! The article itself did all the insulting.

Well, the Koine etymology is crap, at least. If it's not a joke, then the author sure is ;-)
