And then Jesus showed up and said, and I quote, "...if your eye causes you to sin, gouge it out and throw it away. It’s better to enter eternal life with only one eye than to have two eyes and be thrown into the fire of hell." But in Aramaic, I guess.

Problem with sexy ladies? Not their problem.

Gouging you eye is exactly quitting gym in this context. If going so specific place causes you to stumble, don't go to that place.

To be fair, he said they would be thrown to the Valley of Hinnom. Not the nicest of places, sure, but not literally a fiery hell.

Well...that valley is also referred to as the one with the unquenchable fire.

Are you talking about the one in modern day Turkmenistan? Cause Hinnom is southwest of Jerusalem near Mount Zion.

[-] woop_woop@lemmy.world 2 points 5 months ago

I mean this one by Jerusalem.

Mark 9:43: "It is better for you to enter life crippled, than having your two hands, to go into Gehenna into the unquenchable fire."

And also learn to look at different things with both your eye at the same time Bro what are you doing wasting your life looking at the same thing with both day after day when you could be looking at twice as many things
