Revelation 4:10-11 The four and twenty elders fall down before him that sat on the throne, and worship him that liveth for ever and ever, and cast their crowns before the throne, saying,Thou art worthy, O Lord, to receive glory and honour and power: for thou hast created all things, and for thy pleasure they are and were created.

So, once an hour every hour one of the elders throws his crown before the throne?  Do they pick it up again so they can keep doing it forever?  I think I like the Muslim heaven with seventy-two virgins better.
Four and twenty was the tally of the elders, not a day. Ie. "24 elders".

I'm more interested in the implication that God exists in time ("forever and ever").

I believe the twenty-four "crowns" are actually the bottle caps from a case of Guinness Extra Stout.

I’m kind of intrigued by ‘and for thy pleasure they are and were created’. 

One clear implication is that God is continually unhappy unless he constantly creates things. That’s fine as far as it goes - I’m a maker myself and I enjoy it. But considering that the chief things created by God are human beings, with all that attendant misery and suffering, it seems that God gets his jollies by causing pain.

I’m no psycherologist, but I think the term for that is ‘sadistic psychosis’.

I am convinced loving itself is a psychosis, which can readily explain the theistic concept of god's love.

Sunday memes are the best

[Image: Morning.jpg]
teachings of the Bible are so muddled and self-contradictory that it was possible for Christians to happily burn heretics alive for five long centuries. It was even possible for the most venerated patriarchs of the Church, like St. Augustine and St. Thomas Aquinas, to conclude that heretics should be tortured (Augustine) or killed outright (Aquinas). Martin Luther and John Calvin advocated the wholesale murder of heretics, apostates, Jews, and witches. - Sam Harris, "Letter To A Christian Nation"
