Watch  people react to hearing violent Bible verses they think are from the 
 Quran


Screen_Shot_2015-12-07_at_8.43.29_AM.png

The young folk  over at Dit Is Normal 
<https://www.youtube.com/user/DitIsNormaal>   (not a typo), a prankster show out of the Netherlands decided to 
prank people  concerning the Christian Bible. In the wake of the terrorist 
attacks in Paris  and the rising discussion of Islam as a religion inherently 
violent and prone to  terrorism, these two men thought it would be 
interesting to buy a Bible,  highlight some verses, and then replace the cover of that 
Bible with a cover of  a Quran and then let people read those verses?and 
film their  reactions.

If you reject my commands and abhor my laws you will eat the  flesh of your 
own sons and the flesh of your own daughters.

?Leviticus  26.29

I do not allow for a woman to teach.

Timothy 2:12

You  will have to cut off her hand.

Deuteronomy 25:12

The reactions are  priceless and predictable. Here are a couple of 
reactions that are very  applicable to today?s general hypocrisy concerning the 
Islamic  religion.

Well, I didn?t know that this kind of stuff was also in this  book. Cutting 
off people?s hands...I mean, apparently that?s just the way they  are.

And the always classic, Bill Maher inspired:

If you?ve been  raised with this book and these kinds of thoughts, it?s 
going to influence the  way you think.

Good point? Problem is that it applies to most of the  people ranting about 
this stuff these days. When the guys are Dit Is Normal  
<https://www.youtube.com/user/DitIsNormaal>  reveal that these verses  are from the Bible, 
everyone?s reactions are genuinely surprised?and  frankly?positive. One young 
man?s reaction is a real statement of our ability to  swallow our pride 
without feeling humiliated?after laughing and seeming to be  genuinely taken by 
how tricked he was he says this:

But it?s all just  prejudice really. I always try not be be prejudiced 
myself but apparently I  already am.

Maturity and wisdom comes most frequently as a result of  having your ideas 
challenged in a way that allows you to see the artifice of  convention. It 
can be embarrassing at times and it can feel painful at other  times?but 
that?s why we have humor! 

Watch the Islamaphobic hypocrisy  below the fold.
