I cut out a hole in the bible to make room for the stash..??

Question

Is it ok to put it back in the motel room night stand? Will they charge my credit card or my soul.??? oh the humanity

Answer 1

Im sure God is up there enjoying a reefer as we speak ......

Answer 2

That sounds like a moral dilema that is going to need to be hashed out on your own. If you feel bad/guilty than it is wrong, but I doubt an object is going to make God haunt your or your soul... just like a cross can be bent, a statue broken, and a bible burned. God is not found in material, but spirituality and so forth. The rest can be seen as idols. I don't know if they will charge your credit card since I've yet to find on in a Hotel or Morel in California yet.

Answer 3

You can get 25 to Life for that.

Answer 4

CHRIST -- COMING OR NOT?
END OF THE WORLD TOMORROW
JESUS AT THE DOOR
TERRIFYING COMET ALARMS EARTH
THE ADVENT: TRUTH OR HOAX?

Everyone enjoys a good suspense story, especially the kind of
thrill implied in the threatening words: 'The end of the world!'
The prophets of doom had run the gamut, from the literalist who
said, 'The world will come to an end on Thursday, November 23rd at
seven p.m. beginning in the Ohio valley and spreading north through
Michigan', to the earnest student of Scripture who warned that 'in
the day the stars shall fall from heaven and the earth be removed
from her place.' There is no greater suspense story than this.
It is filled with terror and magic, and it had been told with
fantastic fervour in the 1840s. Excited reports spread through
the United States, Britain, Canada, Europe, Asia, even to Africa
and Australia. People throughout those regions were strongly
warned to prepare for the sudden appearance of Christ, the results
of whose 'coming'

 xii 

promised to be either delightful or disastrous, depending on the
teller. The vast majority of people went on their way with
tolerant, amused smiles. They pitied the victims of such
fanaticism. Many, however, found it a time fraught with fear and
panic. In pamphlets, on the platform, in the pulpits, and in the
press, Bible scholars called upon a non-listening, uninterested
world to repent. 'Now is the hour!' they threatened. Many
believed them. Whole families sold their homes and possessions.
Others cashed in their bank accounts and gave away their worldly
goods to the unbelieving. Some prepared special ascension robes.
Tradition states that some went up into the hills on a fatal,
chosen day to await the descent of Christ upon a cloud, only to be
greeted by a downpour of rain. I examined actual legal records
in which some of the zealous deeded their property over to the
coming Christ. An entire village was prepared for His coming. It
was called Heaven (Paradise), and was established as His American
residence. A passionate madness seized people in widely separated
sections of the Christian world at that time. Why? Why did they
all expect Christ? Why at that particular time? It was a
puzzling, first-class mystery story. It was as though a
'millennial' virus had suddenly infected people in five continents.
As I read about the colourful, amusing, and sometimes shocking
things that happened in these widely scattered parts of the world,
I became curious, and that curiosity was the beginning of this
volume.

I can't honestly whether it was in the Library, the Museum, or
by the Cave of Elijah on Mount Carmel that I suddenly found myself
engrossed in a fascinating full-time

study. The growth of interest had been gradual, but eventually I
was determined to find out whether the return of Christ was a myth,
a mistake, or the greatest unsolved mystery of our age. One day
in the reference room of one of the endless libraries I haunted
during this period, I experienced a sudden, unique thrill, the sort
the archeologist must feel when his pick strikes a wall and he sees
it crumble before his eyes, revealing an ancient, exciting new
world, at the very moment he was about to abandon his search. I
discovered I was not on a wild-goose chase! Among those dusty
library shelves i found a fellow-detective, and in his company the
excitement of the chase began all over again. Professor E. G.
Browne of Pembroke College, Cambridge, had broken the ground before
me. He, too, apparently had been fascinated by the same story and
had already unravelled a part of it. He wrote likening it to the
story of Christ:

'I feel it my duty, as well as pleasure . . . to bring the matter
to the notice of my countrymen. . . .' [F1]

Later I traced Browne's searching steps in the Holy Land; I read
the letter in his own handwriting in which he made plans to come
to Israel to meet this great Figure. He admitted that he would not
rest until he had settled the matter in his own mind. [F2] I
found that a contemporary of Browne's, the renowned Jowett of
Balliol College, Oxford, had echoed this feeling. He, too, had
chanced upon the story that now lay open before me. He wrote:

'It is too great and too near for this generation to comprehend.
The future alone can reveal its import.' [F3] Both Professors
Browne and Jowett associated their discovery

 xiv 

with the return of Christ They both expressed keen interest in the
relevance and import of the story. Now, after several years of
careful research and study, I, too, had arrived at this same
conclusion. I decided to take up the story where they had left it
and to follow it to its end. The following chapters are the
record of my seven years of search; they offer my solution to this
intriguing century-old mystery. They suggest that our modern
newspapermen are one hundred years too late in wishing that they
were able to print the dramatic headline:

CHRIST RETURNS

In fact, our press has been scooped by over a century. You will
find here considerable evidence to show that when the newspapers
and publications of the 1840s printed their stories headed, Return
of Christ Expected, they were printing not fancy, but fact, even
though they were unaware of the nature of the story at the time,
and were totally unable to substantiate its truth in that hour.
If what I have uncovered is the truth, then (according to the
testimony of the hard-boiled newspaper editors of the West) it is
the most shocking and dramatic story that anyone could possibly
tell in print. But will anyone believe me? You are now starting
where I started a few years ago on The Strange Case of the Missing
Millenium.
