One of those Bible verses you never learned
Ezekiel, Chapter 23, Verse 20 for those who can't read the tiny font. I suppose I should have placed this "under the fold" so as not to offend anyone, but it is a Bible verse. The Bowlderized versions are here.
That is a pretty good one... my favorite "non-standard" verse being the sword verse in Matthew.
"Do not suppose that I have come to bring peace to the earth. I did not come to bring peace, but a sword. For I have come to turn 'a man against his father, a daughter against her mother, a daughter-in-law against her mother-in-law - a man's enemies will be the members of his own household." Matthew 10:34-36
"Therefore wait ye upon me, saith the LORD, until the day that I rise up to the prey: for my determination is to gather the nations, that I may assemble the kingdoms, to pour upon them mine indignation, even all my fierce anger: for all the earth shall be devoured with the fire of my jealousy."

I made a fake xmas card 2 years ago, with a "christmas tree" and a bible reference... except the tree was the solstice Sun-God tree and the bible reference this one. :) I wonder if anyone looked it up.
