What's with the "put your hand on my thigh" thing when making a vow? I've read that a few times now, and it sounds like they're cupping each others' balls or something when they make a pact between men. I'm sure that's not right, but this is like, the third time I've read something about "swearing by putting the hand on the thigh or under the thigh."
I do like clueless Peter. Matthew 15. "15 Peter said, “I don’t get it. Put it in plain language.”16 Jesus replied, “You too? Are you being willfully stupid?17 Don’t you know that anything that is swallowed works its way through the intestines and is finally defecated?18 But what comes out of the mouth gets its start in the heart.19 It’s from the heart that we vomit up evil arguments, murders, adulteries, fornications, thefts, lies, and cussing.20 That’s what pollutes. Eating or not eating certain foods, washing or not washing your hands—that’s neither here nor there.""
