Because he's not allowed to get married duh. It's Holy Week! Easter's coming, the chocolate bunnies are doing fertility to each other's bunny-ginas, the Christs are 'bout to BRB, and Pope Nice-Nice AKA Francis is hunkered over washing up some feet again, like a common Jesus of Nazareth:
Actually, that's kind of the point. That belief (that the foot is the dirtiest part of the body, which honestly is probably accurate in a sandal-wearing culture) is by no means limited to Arabs. It's a whole-Mideast thing. And it was widespread in the Mideast two thousand years ago as well, which is why the disciples were so shocked that Jesus would wash their feet. It was a job reserved exclusively for slaves.
I was a heathen Hindu infidel so I have very little familiarity with Ismael and Haggar or however one spells it. I don't know why they hold up Abraham's story as an example or allegory of faith since I would hope Sarah would have interfered before he got to that point.
Well as I recall she was mean to Hagar even though she was the one who set her up with Abraham in the first place when she thought she couldn't have kids. I never liked the story they did tell us, even.
Christians in the US ofA have difficulties keeping their stories straight (sic). When I was a youngster, like high school and college, Christians believed, and we're urged to believe by their church ministers, that Christians, Jews, and Muslims worshipped the same God. Then along came all of these dick weasle Christians and a Newish Jewish or two, and suddenly the Muslims are worse than Ebola, trans toilets, and the zika virus all rolled into one. Most Muslim penis models, like most Jewish penis models are circumsized just like the Bible claims Jesus was. What say you faux Christian farmboys?
I remember my religion nun in HS (Because we had religion class every day, and it was all catholic religion being a catholic school, but I digress) telling us that we all served the same God and thus were all part of the chosen people.Thing is, if you read your OT, unless you accept that the descendents of Ishmael were also chosen, the Christians are absolutely on the outs with the big G. Hence why we were hammered "It is all one God!!!!!!! Take that, pagans!!!!"But then she was a Joesy, and they were a tinge progressive, for nuns.
My fundie parents talked bad about muslimsm. Then when my dad was dying. I attended Sunday schook with them.The Ismael Hagar Galatians story came up. I asked my dad how it was fair Ismael got exiled to the desert with his mom and he said bcs he mocked Isaac. Did not convince me.
My sister and brother once did that to GI Joe (the full sized doll, with beard and removable clothing). It was a present for my mother who pretended she was not dismayed by it.I sorta wish they had not, considering how much that thing would be worth now, without nail holes all through it.
I know right? He keeps doing all this "Jesus" stuff. ;)

Maybe I'm just a prude, but I don't want anyone but my romantic partner to wash and kiss my feet. Sorry, Pope.
I hear he's single.
Now I don't remember! They never taught us the Ismael/Hagar story in Sunday School as kids. I only heard about it in a libtard church as an adult.

Uh. You're thinking of Thomas.
Oh my, that is terrible. And funny. And even though it's so funny, I can't sent it to anybody because it's so terrible.
And yet, hilarious.

And then after He was finished washing each one's feet, He leaned closer and whispered in their ears....
