Thanks, Tobbe.

Sigh. This is one of those very few instances where I felt like there was
really nothing else I could do but "cheat". I used a little non-LEGO sticky
stuff to temporarily hold the blood onto the side of their heads. I feel
pretty guilty about it though.

While on the surface of it that does come off like an insult to Biblical
religions, there are probably very many modern Jews and Christians who are
also sickened by such parts of the Bible.

Someone gave away the ending?! @8^D

Animal Sacrifice - it's not just for Satanists anymore.(tm)
I wanted to include one good and gory animal sacrifice story as sort of a
representative measure. There are *plenty* of other ones I could
illustrate, but I think it would get rather tiresome to click through them
after a while. According to Nm 28:3-4, two rams were sacrified *every
single day*. Nm 28:11-15 proscribes that on the first of each month, two
young bulls, eight rams, and a goat must be sacrificed. Festivals and
holidays called for more. In Nm 7:1-88, for example, 24 bulls, 60 rams, 60
goats, and 60 lambs are sacrificed in a weeklong ceremony. Why all this
scarifice of animals? Apparently because the smell of burning animals is
pleasing to God (Nm 28:2).

Good luck. @8^)
