Scapegoat

And he shall take the two goats, and present them before the LORD at the door of the tabernacle of the congregation. And Aaron shall cast lots upon the two goats; one lot for the LORD, and the other lot for the scapegoat. And Aaron shall bring the goat upon which the LORD’S lot fell, and offer him for a sin offering. But the goat, on which the lot fell to be the scapegoat, shall be presented alive before the LORD, to make an atonement with him, and to let him go for a scapegoat into the wilderness.

(Leviticus 16:7-10) KJV

And when he hath made an end of reconciling the holy place, and the tabernacle of the congregation, and the altar, he shall bring the live goat: And Aaron shall lay both his hands upon the head of the live goat, and confess over him all the iniquities of the children of Israel, and all their transgressions in all their sins, putting them upon the head of the goat, and shall send him away by the hand of a fit man into the wilderness: And the goat shall bear upon him all their iniquities unto a land not inhabited: and he shall let go the goat in the wilderness.

(Leviticus 16:20-22) KJV

The cheapest goat we found on Craigslist was $150. The expenses just keep racking up after that. Thanks to Jesus Christ we don’t have to sacrifice goats.

Thought for the Day

Eocene Circular Reasoning

Grasslands limited.”

This is a microcosm of circular reasoning in two words. Whenever the remains of a grassland habitat is found fossilized it’s assigned to something other than the Eocene.

The Eocene is the Eocene because it’s the Eocene.
