12. Yes, I was talking about Fred Phelps.

I was playing off of the "God Hates Figs" joke by altering his last name to include an "i." I was trying to be funny and make a joke, but I guess it didn't work... :(

2. Well, yeah. Why else would Jesus curse a fig tree?

"Now in the morning as he returned into the city, he was hungry.
"And when he saw a fig tree by the road, he came to it, and found nothing on it, but leaves only, and said to it, Let no fruit grow on you henceforward for ever. And presently the fig tree withered away.
"And when the disciples saw it, they marvelled, saying, How soon has the fig tree withered away!"
--Matthew 21:18-20

3. That seems very petty and childish of Jesus...

I mean looking at the other biblical miracles of Jesus...you'd think he'd have gone in the other direction and made it sprout figs.

4. Honestly...

Coming from someone who is a practicing Catholic, I still have no idea what the hell Jesus was thinking with the whole cursing of the fig tree or how that is supposed to lead me to a better life.

I mean, fig trees? Huh? WTF?

18. From what I gather from that passage is how much stress Christ was under.

It was coming up to the crucifixion.

15. So basically, Fred Phelps' problems

stems from a misreading of a biblical passage?

5. That's not the only thing he hates.

10. Figs are considered a "sexual" plant by some.

Like pomegranates.

(Have you ever had pomegranate juice? The nectar of the Gods, I tell you....)
