Starbucks should put THIS verse from Bible on cups!!

Suggestion from brucegerencser.net, run by former minister who has left Christianity.

Ezekiel 23:20 - about a woman lusting after genitilia of her lovers 'hung like a donkey'!!

that is one f*cked up story, imho.

incredibly misogynistic.


starbucks would be well-advised to stay very much away from that, as if you couldn't guess just from ezekiel 23:20!

The rest of the verse notes that the lovers' emissions were "like that of a horse". If using this particular Biblical verse was, say, part of a Starbucks "Holiday Custom Latte" promotional campaign, I would be a bit suspicious as to the content of said beverage!

Bruce wants to show hypocracy of those who think ability to quote Bible verses is the mark of a good person.

His post was in reaction to religious right's claim that Stabucks 2017 Christmas cup promotes lesbians.
