Awesome Bible Knowledge

Awesome Bible Knowledge

I think everyone at work must think I am the crazy Bible guru. Yet they know I'm no saint. I can only imagine it's a disconnect that I know so much about the Bible and yet do nothing with that knowledge other than to offer up crazy Bible Trivia.

"Radioshack makes me think of Meeshack"

My stunned co-worker can only reply with, "Umm - what?"

"You know - Meeshack, Shadrack, and Ambednigo...Shadrack makes me think of Shadrap which is a fishing lure, and I always say 'a bed me go!' too."

Stunned staring.

"They were the crazy kids who were friends of Daniel and got thrown into the burning furnace...it's in the Bible".

"Oh."

Or like yesterday my exclimation of, "Man I'm glad I didn't get a crazy Bible name!"

"Yeah - some Bible names aren't bad like Matthew"

"No - but with my luck I'd have been named Dorkus."

"Shut up! That's a name?"

"Yup - in the Bible."

Why do I remember stuff like this? I mean I am not a total Bible guru. Even when I was in full Guru Bible mode I was horrible at remembering scriptures. So if someone says, "Remember John 3:16" I say..."Is that the one about foreskins?"

And while for the most part I don't dwell on my worthless Bible knowledge - it's amazing what triggers it all coming flooding back. Then it's like full on Bible mode and it all comes flooding out and I JUST CAN'T STOP THE BIBLE FLOOD - which is not an allegory for Noah or his wooden box, it's just how it works.

It's weird and when it happens I can't help but get done pouring it out and thinking - "wow, where did that come from?"

Lesser known Bible fact - In the Begining there was Gary. He made inappropriate comments to the wrong animals and thus was slain."
