Well...considering that everyone who "invested" in it was killed, I'd say it was not the smartest way for them to have spent their gold.

I would have cashed it in today and bought HP stock - it is low and seems like a good buy right now.
Maybe I should post this in finance forum in case anyone has a golden calf to pawn.

Yes, if you are investing in people, as Moses was, that action saved a lot.
But man, that thing would be worth its weight in gold today.

I'd say a few hundred pounds maybe a thousand but i have no idea. I don't remember that story quite good. i cant remember if he threw it down or pushed it down or rolled it down a hill or what. It depends on how it was broken. If it was thrown down it would have had to been light for a man to lift it besides samson

Well, seeing as how they would end up wandering around in a desert for forty yrs, I don't think it would've done them much good. Probably would've been quite a hindrance.

I guess not everyone is a greedy, capitalist pig who loves money more than morality and his principles.

Who knows? Who cares? Do you honestly think it makes sense to apply today's values and standards to ancient Israel?

Destroyed? It was officially confiscated by what would later be known as the Vatican.

They didn't destroy it - they just moved it to New Jersey, and now worship it under it's correct name...
