Biblical Literalists and the Heavenly Bodies

^{Mark 9:42-50}
 “On the other hand, if you give one of these simple, childlike believers a hard time, bullying or taking advantage of their simple trust, you’ll soon wish you hadn’t. 
You’d be better off dropped in the middle of the lake with a millstone around your neck.

 “If your hand or your foot gets in God’s way, chop it off and throw it away. 
You’re better off maimed or lame and alive than the proud owner of two hands and two feet, godless in a furnace of eternal fire. 

And if your eye distracts you from God, pull it out and throw it away. 
You’re better off one-eyed and alive than exercising your twenty-twenty vision from inside the fire of hell.
