# Funny you should say that.
I was going to leave the torch out, but that had the unexpected ironic effect of making him do a Nazi salute.

Was Moses a Nazi?

Probably not, to be honest,

# The irony is
that Moses never even reached the Promised Land.

# but he did break
one of the tablets containing the 15 commandments.

Got away with it though.

# Was it Mel Brooks?
for some reason I thought it was Stanley Baxter.

# Bible ref.
He broke them both I think, but it was ok in the end, because God made him another set.

EDIT:

Exodus 34:1
"And the LORD said unto Moses, Hew thee two tables of stone like unto the first: and I will write upon these tables the words that were in the first tables, which thou brakest."

# My thoughts precisely...
bollocks, very sensitive, so where oes he put them? Outside at knee height. What a fool!
(I helped save b3ta! Roman Totale, Sun 30 May 2004, 3:05, archived)

are in a funny place.

Or other person missing bollocks.

# I am
a chap, and my point was that knees can easily be manouvered into the bollock position - result being great pain!

# I'm sure
human science would have discovered a way to cause pain to another's testicles no matter where God had chosen to locate them.

Alternatively, of course, you can believe that evolution put them in a stupid place...

# Aaaaaaah!
So God didn't use his omnipotence to make some more. He got poor old septegenarian Moses to carve another set.

# My personal interpretation
is that he broke the commandments rather that the tablets.
Let's face it - who hasn't coveted?
(I helped save b3ta! Roman Totale, Sun 30 May 2004, 3:07, archived)
# Well...
I should think at his age, Moses might covet his neighbour's ass, but there wasn't a lot he could do about it.

Unless he had some of the viagra mentioned below.

my neighbour isn't that good looking

but he broke the tablets as well.

# I don't think
he was quite that old at the time.

Although of course, he was eventually. And lived to 120.
(I helped save b3ta! Moon Girl Technologies horrendous beanbag, Sun 30 May 2004, 3:12, archived)
# You're right
He was older.

Exodus 7:7 "At the time when they spoke to the king, Moses was 80 years old, and Aaron was 83"

And we don't even finish the plagues until Exodus 12!

# And
He had a stutter.

How much less Charlton Heston can we get?

edit: Well, alright all I can say for sure is that he was no good at public speaking, which is why he got Aaron to do it for him. But I'm sure I remember hearing or reading somewhere that he had a stutter.

# yes
he had a stutter. I believe from putting a hot coal in his mouth as a child.
