I was in homeroom today and some Christian kids read this story from the bible. Now before I heard this I was a ok catholic I had my faults and some things I disagree with but this has just shocked me and I dont know what to think about it. I dont know where this story is from in the bible all I know is its a bible story.
Ok so these 2 guys are carrying this ark up to some place to hide it for God ( I wasnt paying attention at the begining). God told them not to touch the ark thing cause it was sacred. So they were carrying it on a stretcher or something. The thing wobbled and one guy put his hand out to balance it and stop it from tipping. The guy has to touch it to save it from falling a breaking. But after he touches it god kills him on the spot.
After I heard this the kids were saying how it shows me must trust in God or whatever. But all the time I was thinking holy shit gods an asshole. Theres no way God would love us and do somethign like that. The guy was just trying to protect something sacred. And it was probably just a reaction anyway you no when you are standing somewhere and something starts to fall you dont really think about it you just try to stop it from falling. I would love to hear from christians and non christians about this. especially hear what christians have to say about this.
