Silly COGer Quote of the Day: Fixing Broken Dykes on the Sabbath is 'Act of Mercy'

The Flickering Candle says it is ok to help fix broken dykes on the Sabbath, but not to make someone fix you food to feed yourself:.  What if the broken dyke wanted some food after you fixed her? Bummer!

Yesterday I mentioned that working on the Sabbath was occasionally allowable, but that regular such work was not.  I seem to have been a little unclear on this: I had meant that work involving acts of mercy was acceptable.  I was thinking of the dykes breaking and of helping people to escape ect.  I had NOT meant that working late from time to time to please the boss was an “ox in the ditch”.  Longtime readers will know that I am most zealous for the Sabbath. Only ACTS OF MERCY ARE PERMITTED. It is NOT appropiate to work late from time to time at any regular job and it is NOT acceptable to God to pay others to do any work on Sabbath.  That would include paying others persons or businesses to cook or work for  us in restaurants or any other business establishment.

Um, someone had better talk to this self appointed savior of Armstrongism and let him know that his choice of words is hilarious.  Any check of the online dictionary will find you this as to what a dyke is:
