One time I confronted one of them with the lie in Leviticus 11:20-22.  It
basically says in it that locusts have four legs.  The passage is quite
garbled and says a lot of comparison phrases that make the text easily
misintreprated.  Anyway, I told the man to read it, and I asked him "Do
locusts have four legs?"  You would not believe the answer he gave me.  He
said that (remember the passage is garbled) one of the times the word
"double" appeared was reffering to the locust's legs.  So, to him, the
obvious intrepretation was that locusts have eight legs.  All I could do was
laugh.  I wrote back telling him to check out his Britanica.  For all of you
who don't know how many legs locusts have, they are insects.  They have six.
 I wish I could make this seem funnier, but I can't.  The truth is as funny
as it gets.  And by the way, nowhere in that passage is there a sllight
reference to the number six.  See for yourself.
