There are no “curse words” in Ezekiel. I didn’t say there wasn’t anything lewd or violent in the Bible. The language, while descriptive, is not a literal illustration, as in the school board story.
The board specifically doesn’t want to change the lessons being taught, just the material chosen to teach it because it violates board policies.
Just because a work covers an important topic doesn’t mean it’s appropriate in all contexts, regardless of the quality of that work (e.g. I wouldn’t want my children watching Schindler’s List at their current age, but they should watch it when they are at the appropriate level of maturity).
- JaimeThompson 5y ago> violence or sexual acts > There are no “curse words” in Ezekiel This will be my last response on this topic but, in the future please review what you have previously written as you appear to have misremembered what you wrote previously.
- jonhohle 5y agoI stand by what I wrote. The story about the school district’s decision to replace a book has nothing to do with descriptions of violence or sexual acts. I remember what I wrote quite clearly. There is still no profanity (aka curse words) in Ezekiel.
