12. I don't understand this bible lesson.
Fri Jun 28, 2024, 07:30 PM
Jun 2024

I never studied the bible in Catholic school. (Grades 1-5)

Looks like I missed out.

So a woman is given fine jewelry made of gold and silver by a man.
Ok I got that.

Then she turns into a prostitute and lures the johns in with
the flashy jewelry given to her by another man?

Or she makes craven images with the gold and silver and then
has sex with these gold and silver statues?

WTH?

The nuns were so right to just give us our little catechisms.
