  • Last night's Final Jeopardy question

    The category was "Old Testament". All three contestants missed the question and the consensus among users on Jeopardy discussion communities online was that this was a really difficult question. I immediately got it and I'm curious how TWebbers would do with it.

    "Consisting of 21 verses, the Book of this minor prophet, whose name means “servant of God”, is the shortest."
    "I am not angered that the Moral Majority boys campaign against abortion. I am angry when the same men who say, "Save OUR children" bellow "Build more and bigger bombers." That's right! Blast the children in other nations into eternity, or limbless misery as they lay crippled from "OUR" bombers! This does not jell." - Leonard Ravenhill

    Oh I would die, uh, maybe not go that far, if I missed that.

    I'm always still in trouble again

        I would've easily missed it. Never memorized the books of the bible.
        "As for my people, children are their oppressors, and women rule over them. O my people, they which lead thee cause thee to err, and destroy the way of thy paths." Isaiah 3:12

        There is no such thing as innocence, only degrees of guilt.

          Crap, I didn't know that - or I did and forgot!
          Atheism is the cult of death, the death of hope. The universe is doomed, you are doomed, the only thing that remains is to await your execution...

            I've seen it come up in various trivia-based games.

              It took Y'hoshua and I a bit but we got it (no google). He thought about the Hebrew and I remembered reading the shortest book for script 2.

              "Fire is catching. If we burn, you burn with us!"
              "I'm not going anywhere. I'm going to stay here and cause all kinds of trouble."

                  No, but Amos is a good guess.

                            Without a clear-cut definition of sin, morality becomes a mere argument over the best way to train animals

                              I know just enough Hebrew to know that's not it. "of God" means it has to end in "iah" or "el".

                              (I knew the answer thanks to all those Bible trivia quizzes growing up).
                              Enter the Church and wash away your sins. For here there is a hospital and not a court of law. Do not be ashamed to enter the Church; be ashamed when you sin, but not when you repent. – St. John Chrysostom
