Before I start let me warn again. You shouldn’t be reading this if you are not a brother. The consequences are quite dire like immediately displaying some male qualities not to be mentioned here. I have randomized the list below, so it is in no particular order. So please take your pick wisely and may the force of life guide your choice. Here we go:
- 1. Find an attractive prisoner of war, bring her home, shave her head, trim her nails, and give her new clothes. Then she is yours for life. (Deuteronomy 21:11-13)
2. Find a prostitute and marry her. (Hosea 1:1-3)
3. Find a man with seven daughters, impress him by watering his flock. (Exodus 2:16-21)
4. Purchase a piece of property and get a woman as part of the deal. (Ruth 4:5-10)
5. Go to a party and hide. When the women come to dance, grab one and carry her off to be your wife. (Judges 21:19-25)
6. Have God create a wife for you while you sleep. Note: This will cost you a rib. (Genesis 2:19-24)
7. Agree to work for seven years in exchange for a woman’s hand in marriage. Get tricked into marrying the wrong woman. Then work another seven years for the woman you wanted in the first place. At least you get double for your trouble. (Genesis 29:15-30)
8. Cut-off 200 foreskins of your future father-in-law’s enemies and as a reward, get his daughter as your wife. (1 Samuel 18:27)
9. Even if no one is out there, just wander around a bit and you’ll definitely find someone. (Genesis 4:16-17)
10. Become the Emperor of a great nation, then hold a beauty contest and choose a wife from the alluring array. (Esther 2:3-4)
11. When you see someone you like, go home and tell your parents: “I have seen a dashdash woman in blahblah; now get her for me as my wife.” If they question your decision, simply say: “Get her for me. She’s the right one for me.” (Judges 14:1-3)
12. Kill any husband and take his wife. Warning: prepare to lose four sons though. (2 Samuel 11 at least you will study your Bible this year) 😉
13. Wait for your brother to die, then take his widow. It’s not just a good idea, it’s the law. (Genesis 38:6-8)
14. Don’t be so picky my friend. Make up quality with quantity. (1 Kings 11:1-3)
This is to encourage every brother out there looking for their life partners that there is hope. Oh yes! There is hope! 🙂
Thoughts of a Calabarboy. 
I’ve seen something like this before, but it is still so funny. God’s ways are better than ours and usually quite entertaining.
Yup, the note may sound funny, but I just wanted to let people know that God still has something to say about making a choice of a partner 😉
Nice one Reggie.Very entertaining.
And, you know there is no way to get a woman to read something like telling her she can’t or that it is not for her.
Georgia.
I guess you get my drift…lol 😉
Hope you are resting well Georgia.

HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA!!! I loved this post! 🙂
Calabar Boy, no doubt, this is comical; but don’t you think its satirical to the bible, and evangelically damping to contemporary mind. I fear a stray of the comic target to a more covert biblical repulsion.
The world is already perverted, so my attempt at the jocular will not re-qualify the extent of such perversion. What I hope for in this lighted hearted read is that perhaps those who click on each of the Bible references will end up reading through more of the scriptures. Cunning I Know, but it serves a purpose I believe 🙂
I hope it works out. Its will be pleasant to know it does. Do you have tracking cache for those following the bible reference links?
ROFLOL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
This is hilarious! Loves it…… i especially like the one about sleeping while God makes one for you(it’ll cost you a rib though! lol)

What’s up, this weekend is nice for me, because this occasion i am reading this impressive informative post here at my house.
I know this if off topic but I’m looking into starting my own blog and
was curious what all is required to get set up? I’m assuming having
a blog like yours would cost a pretty penny? I’m not very web smart so I’m not 100% certain. Any
recommendations or advice would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you
