Never said that. Don't believe that. Stop making junk up.

Good grief is right.

No, Ezekiel wasn't told to bake and eat a cow patty. He was told to cook BREAD using the dung as fuel.

If you're going to be snarky, at least get the story right.

Gill's Exposition of the Entire Bible
And thou shalt eat it as barley cakes,.... That is, the bread made of wheat, barley, beans, lentiles, millet, and fitches, was to be made in the form of barley cakes, and to be baked as they; not in an oven, but under ashes; and these ashes not of wood, or straw, or turf, but as follows:
and thou shalt bake it with dung that cometh out of men, in their sight: the prophet was to take human dung, and dry it, and then cover the cakes or loaves of his mixed bread with it, and burn it over them, and with it bake it; which must be a very disagreeable task to him, and make the food very nauseous, both to himself and to the Jews, in whose sight it was done;

You failed to see the question mark at the end of the question? Or the starting words "I guess..."?

Apparently, Reading Isn't Fun for you?

(Hey, look, another interrogative!)

If it floats their boat, why criticize?

Maybe this kind of worship isn't for some people. But maybe it's just what others enjoy.

I say, let them be.

Yes, use it as fuel. You said bake it and eat it, which is not what even this commentary says. It was bread which was being baked...not the dung.

You're right. I concede, it is absolutely ridiculous to think that God, who led a prophet to cover some dough with excrement and bake it and eat it in front of everybody, would lead a person to jump up on a podium and dance where people could see him. Because THAT'S just too much.

All of you chill. Thanks.
