Whether or not you believe the bible to be true, you must admit that the portrayal of some of its characters are really dumb. My picks for stupidest characters in the good book are:
Eve: Gets the dunce cap and the invite to stand in the corner everlastingly. A perennial pick of many. Eating forbidding fruit, conversing with snakes and etc., the list can go on and on.
Jehovah (of the Hebrew Scriptures): Creating man. Creating man w/instincts only to set up rules in opposition. Making an issue of universal import come down to the eating of a single piece of fruit. Killing man. Killing man again. The original terminator. His mass killings would make Mr. Schwarznegger blush. And he's not done yet....He'll be back........
Servant boy at the House of Dagon? (Sampson's Time) - Did it not dawn on this dude that blind Sampson wanted his hands on the pillars to take him and everyone else in the spot out?
Israelites (Hebrew Scriptures) - Nothing need be said.
Peter - When I look at the various accounts involving him he forshadowed village idiots who are elders whose BS you'd have to put up with.
Balaam - C'mon kiss your ASS.
This all I can think up at the moment. More to come. Who are your picks for Dumb-Ass Bible Characters?
