Well I guess I'm going to hell then. With a couple toddlers running around early in the morning it's a lot less awkward to sit down unless I want 'help' which I isn't a good idea.

So, this preacher wants to be a stand-up guy? If he has to take a dump, does he first stand and then sit? But ... he said that God said he would destroy he that pisseth against the wall. Sounds like God doesn't want guys to pee standing up. So maybe he's the antichrist. Or at least the anti-seat.

~~HA~~

@Eric: God hates people who piss on walls, but in order to piss on a wall you have to be standing up, so God must be implying that men stand up to piss. The preacher therefore preaches that men should stand up to piss as it is a (indirect) commandment from god.

Interestingly, only the wall is said to be a bad place to piss. I guess that means men at liberty to piss where they like. An interesting philosophical dilemma, as it would be forbidden to piss on a lego wall, but the same lego fashioned into a spaceship would be fine pissing material.

What a piece of BS. I have lived in Germany for 10 years and I visit Germany several times each year, but I have never seen such a sign prohibiting peeing standing up.
And in public restrooms, there are ALWAYS urinals, no way sitting down.

So you can be male without being a man. And MEN pee on the walls (2:08). Therefore God hates men. And did you hear the laughing at 3:18? AND HOW DARE HIM SAY MY PRESIDENTS PEES SITTING DOWN???

Also, at 3:35, he says we have pastors that don't pee on the wall...but then again he preaches that God says in Kings 21:21 (KJK) that He "will cut off from Ahab him that pisseth against the wall".

OK, here we go. What the preacher was doing was reading the passage to show that this is the way the KJV describes a man. He wasn't lumping himself or other men with the folk God is condemning, just showing that this is descriptive text that means men, and that other translations have "cleaned things up" a bit. We have some of that in my Church in the hymns, where they have been de-masculinized. (Example in Holy Holy Holy, "Though the eye of sinful man Thy glory may not see" is adjusted to "Though the eye made blind by sin Thy glory may not see"). Demasculinization is everywhere.

  • "It is a misfortune that many people think it is a mark of saintliness to be easily shocked; whereas the greatest saints are the people who are never shocked. They may be distressed; they may wish things different; but to be shocked is often nothing but a mark of vanity, a desire that others should know how high one's standards, how sensitive one's conscience is."
