That was actually a dragon as well. It was a talking "snake" with legs, if you'll recall.

I don't think it says that. It only says, it's condemned to crawl on it's belly for eternity. Which wouldn't be much of a punishment for a snake. They're obviously doing quite well.

But it doesn't say they were there to begin with.
And it certainly doesn't show.

Blasphemy! Adam and Eve were naked when they were eating the fruits. How dare those painters distort the infallible word of God!

The unicorns in the King James Version of the bible presents a bigger problem then most Christians realize. If the translation was wrong then for a few centuries, an all powerful, all knowing god let a wrong word corrupt his holy text and cause confusion. If the word for unicorns and dragons is wrong, how does a Christian know that other words in the bible aren't wrong?
Some people with modern versions of the bible will get around this by repeating..."But my version of the bible doesn't say the word, unicorn." They simply refuse to acknowledge that there was a translation error at all.

I suppose it's even possible that KJV's authors made no big difference between rhinos and mythical unicorns.

The foreskin chopping is a jewish and muslim thing. Although I have to admit there have been cult worshipping the holy preputium in the past. They all claimed to possess a piece of Jesus' meat. But according to their number of relics, Jesus must have had a pecker virtually reaching out to the high heavens. If he had enough juice in him to support it, that is.
