Bible and pooping

I wonder if there really is a passage in the bible that directly or indirectly forbids going to the bathroom.

I think it may be somewhere towards the back.

No, but in Leviticus (not sure which part) there are specific instructions as to what to do with your body's waste. I'm not kidding, it's in there!

There _is_ a specific verse that tells about going into the back of a cave to take a crap - 1 Sm 24:3.

indirectly

In some place like Leviticus or Deutoronomy, there's a bunch of stuff about how you have to walk a certain distance out of camp, dig a hole, poop in it, then cover it up like a cat does.

Good quote to use on door-to-door proselytizers, along with all the stuff about wearing blended fibers and having to hide out all day if you had a wet dream. In fact, you can use that one to taunt fundamentalists if they are out from work for a day...."wassamatta, Bill, did you wake up yesterday morning with dogwater in yer jammies?"

Deuteronomy 23:12-14 (NRSV) 12 You shall have a designated area outside the camp to which you shall go. 13With your utensils you shall have a trowel; when you relieve yourself outside, you shall dig a hole with it and then cover up your excrement. 14Because the LORD your God travels along with your camp, to save you and to hand over your enemies to you, therefore your camp must be holy, so that he may not see anything indecent among you and turn away from you.

In the medieval period, they forgot about that ancient rule and pooped in the open. Then their shite bred bacteria that was picked up by flies and transmitted to mice that ran into the houses and died and the fleas jumped off the mice onto the people and plague ran rampant causing hundreds of thousands of deaths. Yaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah!!!!

So, don't forget your paddle...
