"Again I tell you, it is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle than for someone who is rich to enter the kingdom of God."

Matthew 19:24

I don't believe in Heaven, and I don't care for most of the Bible. But anti-rich sentiment will always put a smile on my face.

I like thinking about how according to their own book the owners of mega churches that endorse "seed faith", don't pay taxes, and don't do charity, are going to burn in hell.

Especially someone like Pat Robertson who diverts African aid to mine diamonds for him. It alarms me how many modern Christians like to ignore all the GOOD teachings from the Bible.

I'm not a religious man but I always liked Psalm 23:4 from the Bible. It's partially present in the movie THE BOOK OF ELI.

The Lord is my shepherd; I shall not want.
He maketh me to lie down in green pastures; He leadeth me beside the still waters.
He restoreth my soul; He leadeth me in the paths of righteousness for His name’s sake.
Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil; for Thou art with me; Thy rod and Thy staff, they comfort me.
Thou preparest a table before me in the presence of mine enemies; Thou anointest my head with oil; my cup runneth over.
Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life; and I will dwell in the house of the Lord for ever.

Another movie related quote: Proverbs 21 verse 7.

Quote
The getting of treasures by a lying tongue is a vanity tossed to and fro of them that seek death. The robbery of the wicked shall destroy them; because they refuse to do judgment. The way of man is froward and strange: but as for the pure, his work is right.

Don't ask me for the chapter and verse, but I've always liked the bit about reaping what you sow.

That's from the apostles Paul and Iggy Pop, in Galatians and "Perfect Day" respectively.

Mark 13:4-5 King James Bible

Quote
4 And Jesus answered and said unto them, Take heed that no man deceive you.

False Christs

5 For many shall come in my name, saying, I am Christ; and shall deceive many. And ye shall hear of wars and rumours of wars: see that ye be not troubled: for all these things must come to pass, but the end is not yet. For nation shall rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom: and there shall be famines, and pestilences, and earthquakes, in divers places. All these are the beginning of sorrows.
