More biblefic

Because I can't really do anything about Livejournal being evil. New biblefic - Traditional Values - A Parable of Tenants and Tenets posted. I'd already written two, so I figure I might as well post them up. Plus, the new chapter of Pokemon Revolution is particularly sucky, and I need to let it percolate through my brain until I figure out how to completely rewrite it without jeopardizing the rest of the story.
(Jesus' parables are incredibly bizarre. This one is actually one of the more reasonable ones. Many of the parables are more inscrutable than stories in the old testament, which is to say harder to understand than stories that predate them by several thousand years, written in a dead language from even older oral legend, and having gone through several steps of translation. I don't know what this means, but whatever it is, it's pretty weird.)

Date: 2007-09-01 08:01 pm (UTC)Okay, I need to read through the Gospels sometime. I've only ever heard the more famous parables - the Prodigal Son (which, come to think of it, was fairly messed up anyhow), the Good Samaritan, etc.
Chapters and verses for the less reasonable ones?
