"Dem bones, dem bones, dem DRY bones..."

Was going to post this on Sacreligious Sunday, but just couldn't hold my horses. I was exploring King James' book of Ezekiel, trying to find that bit about "dem bones, dem bones, dem DRY bones... Ezekiel collected dem DRY bones...," when I came across this, the Word of thy Father. Truly seems like a pile of Biblical dung that folks should avoid stepping in. And now, Heeeere's a mound of human waste, straight outta the Book of the Profit Ezekiel, Chapter 4: "12 And thou shalt eat it as barley cakes, and thou shalt bake it with dung that cometh out of man, in their sight. 13 And the Lord said, Even thus shall the children of Israel eat their defiled bread among the Gentiles, whither I will drive them. 14 Then said I, Ah Lord God! behold, my soul hath not been polluted: for from my youth up even till now have I not eaten of that which dieth of itself, or is torn in pieces; neither came there abominable flesh into my mouth. 15 Then he said unto me, Lo, I have given thee cow's dung for man's dung, and thou shalt prepare thy bread therewith." Well, having read this I had to stop and admire God's Heavenly Mercy at work, only making His faithful servant consume cow's, as opposed to man's execrable dung. YECCCHHH! Couldn't even make myself proceed to that comparably charming part concerning the collection of dry bones, but I'll get there yet. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=E-pzzfcU--4
