Sacrilegious Discourse - Bible Study for Atheists

Husband and Wife cover Job chapter 20: Zophar Depicts the Portion of the Wicked. If my friends kept telling me I got what I deserved, when I knew I was innocent, I would not waste any more time defending myself. I would tell those sumbitches to get tf off my porch. I would spit gum in their hair. I would subscribe them to every spam email campaign ever. I would give out their cell phone numbers to...

Husband and Wife cover Job chapter 19: Job's Faith That God Will Vindicate Him. Yep, Job is still Jobin' and he gets all wrathy, claiming that God is gonna show his so-called friends a thing or two with some sword. Yeesh, J-dog! That's a bit too vengeful for our taste. Keep your sword to yourself! I mean, there's vindication and then there's outright MURDER. Maybe don't? Sk...

Husband and Wife cover Job chapter 18: Bildad Describes the Fate of the Wicked. There are nets and nooses and traps and snares. There are lamps getting snuffed and fires going out and darkness and sulfur. There is calamity and disaster, horrors and terrors, dogs and cats living together — mass hysteria! Wait, that last bit was from Ghostbusters. But if you listen to Job's friends, it definitel...

Husband and Wife cover Job chapter 17: Job Complains of God's Dealings (cont). People are spitting on Job, and he has lost a ton of weight. He's still really depressed and talking about an early grave. Job's friends are completely worthless.

Husband and Wife cover Job chapter 16: Job Complains of God's Dealings. Homeboy refers to his chums as "miserable comforters" and swears he would never do them so dirty. Then he starts in again about how God is super mean. But even so, Job refers to God as his "advocate" which is just ludicrous! My guy, God is not only NOT advocating for you, he's actually allowing Satan to...

Husband and Wife (don't) answer questions about Job and his friends; there's nothing to figure out. It's not rocket science. Next: Moth daddies can smell that sweet sweet vagina from miles away. I guess mothy pootang is more odiferous than a mothball? Skip the ads by joining Acast+ https://plus.acast.com/s/6331d364470c7900137bb57d Thank you for stopping by Sacrilegious Discourse - Bibl...

Husband and Wife cover Job chapter 15: Eliphaz Reprimands Job. Wife gets super turned up over this arrogant sumbitch. He is a master class in gaslighting and sets off all Wife's triggers. He tries to man-splain the sitch as he sees it and comes off so smug that Wife wants to slap his stupid face into next week. We're already dealing with a real-life Karen and don't have the emotional f...

Husband and Wife cover Job chapter 14: Job Muses on the Brevity of Life. God is giving his homeboy a really long leash here, letting him ask a lot of very valid questions, and we are here for it. Like, you know how many steps I took today, but you can't tell me what I did to earn all this trouble? Job calls bullshyte on God's shenanigans.

Husband and Wife cover Job chapter 13: Job Defends His Integrity. We are really proud of J-Dawg! He tells his "friends" to STFU, and then he tells God, "Face me or you're a coward." Solid stance! Then we chase a wild tangent down a radical rabbit hole and ponder the need for mothballs, followed by a super basic question: Are moths just ugly butterflies? Skip the ads by joining...

Husband and Wife cover Job chapter 12: Job Affirms God's Power and Wisdom. Our favorite quote from this chapter lies in verse 3: "I am not inferior to you." Job starts out strong, telling his so-called friends to eff off. But then he kinda winds down, and we wander off, screeching (again) about our neighborhood Karen. Yeesh, she's a piece of something.

Husband and Wife cover Job chapter 11: Zophar Accuses Job of Iniquity. This guy in my face calling me witless and evil — the very AUDACITY. You don't know me! Step off, "friend!" Yeah, this one got us hot. Job needs to cull his friend list and delete some mf's.

Husband and Wife get into the structure of the Book of Job, and in so doing, ponder the philosophical notion that God is made in (hu)man's image, since only humans could be so cruel. We once again conclude that God is a dick, but then reaffirm our commitment to read the Bible, even so.

Husband and Wife cover Job chapter 10: Job Bemoans His Condition. Lawdy, Lawdy, this guy waxes on and on about his misery. Understandably, of course, since he's lost his children and he's covered in boils. But still, he is hollering at God either to get on with sending him to "the dark place" or else to let him alone already. Job is like, "Get my face outcha eye, ahole!" Sk...

Husband and Wife cover Job chapter 9: Job's Inability to Answer God. Poor Job has God's rod up his butt which makes him too scared to stand up for himself. More importantly, however, our neighborhood Karen revealed herself to be living right next door, and we are in a Battle Royale for street parking at our new house. Also, did you know that holes in the earth are just upside-down mountain...

Husband and Wife cover Job chapter 8: Bildad Affirms God's Justice. Job really needs to pick some better friends cuz these ones seriously suck. The first guy was all, "You brought this on yourself, stupid-face!" Now the second one is like, "Yeah, dummy, God is the tits! Get with the program!" It's just so tiresome. God is a dick and his apologists are trash. Skip the ads by...

Husband and Wife cover Job chapter 7: Job Remonstrates with God. Our guy is pretty upset with Big Sky Daddy and basically threatens to off himself if God doesn't quit messing with him. Job says something like, "You'll put your eye out," and kinda waves his fist as a gesture of good solid remonstrating.

Husband and Wife cover Job chapter 6: Job Reproaches His Friends. Job is like, "Excuse you? I ain't did a damn thing wrong up in here! You got something to say to me, clown?" Or at least that what we think he's saying. Hard to tell with all that purple prose.

Husband and Wife react to a super judgmental video classifying anyone who isn't a rich white man as "Low Class" and boy do we have feelings. The video we're responding to is linked below: https://youtu.be/OxVhbY9LljY Support this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/sacrilegious-discourse-bible-study-for-atheists/donations

Husband and Wife (don't) answer questions about Job's friend Eliphaz (because we're in the middle of a longer conversation). Then we get into Leviathans, Behemoths, and Zizzes (zizzi? zouce? What is the plural of Ziz?). Wife narrowly avoids going down several Rabbit Holes as we learn about Lotan, chaos demons, the seven deadly sins, dragons, and princes of Hell. We will definitely be r...

Husband and Wife cover Job chapter 5: Eliphaz Rebukes Job (cont). When you look up the word "Uninvited," you'll find a picture of Eliphaz next to it, cuz dude is a seriously Bad Friend. He's that schmuck who tells you to get over it and that you need to move on. Moreover, he's encouraging people to party with wild animals, which just seems like really bad (and potentially blood...
