Well I guess that's part of what makes natives such heathens. I was watching a show on traditional gardening, and they always planted "the three sisters" together. Corn, beans, squash. The corn provided a pole for the beans, the beans increase the nitrogen in the soil, and the squash leaves cover the mound and act as a mulch. According to the show, this method was used from Mexico to Canada. It's beans and tomatoes (and likely other nightshades like potatoes and peppers) that shouldn't be planted together, the link I provided on companion planting does verify that, but I have to wonder where they managed to obtain a vegetable that was plentiful in South America unless one of those relatives were actually scribed in. The "three sisters" works out beneficially. Why not beans and tomatoes together?

What God will do to cynical priests according to Malachi 2:3 Behold, I will corrupt your seed, and spread dung upon your faces, even the dung of your solemn feasts; and one shall take you away with it.Sooo...in layman's terms, he'll fuck up your genes, smear shit all over your face, and crap the buffet. What the fuck?!

Kristine, as near as I can figure, it's because Nightshades like nitrogen poor soil and beans keep trying to enrich it with nitrogen. There are also other chemicals that their roots produce which might inhibit each other's growth.
I can't seem to find a straight answer on Google as to why it's specifically beans and tomatoes, however. Maybe someone might do a study or perhaps Yahoo or Google Answers might have something.

What the fuck?! God's one of the Furies? Or were those Harpies? Well, one of them showed up at parties, ate all the food, then shit on whatever was left. Edit: I think it was Harpies, & the Furies were the birds with the brass wings that shot feathers at people in the swamp, until Hercules fucked them up.

I guess I can sorta see the metaphor in that one as in "your bad attitude will make me make you embarrassed everyday, even on the holy days, and will corrupt your children." ...I think

There are no metaphors in the Bible, there must be no room for interpretation, the entire text is to be taken literally! [/fundie]

It could be a metaphor banning cunnilingus. After all, women don't feel pleasure during sex, they just kinda sit there, like the good machines they are.

What is "Don't eat shrimp!" a metaphor for? *does stretching exercise preparing to Make Sh%t Up* A small crustacean has a hard shell on the outside but is sweet and tasty on the inside...like..er...a dream of peace. Once the outer shell of resolve is breached the inside is tasty to the malicious impulses of man when dipped in the tangy shrimp sauce of ...er...violence (yeah, that's the ticket) Peace is a fragile thing that moves slowly on land with it's many little legs that have to be torn off after it is boiled in...er...doubt. But if one keeps the faith and lets the little shrimps live then the worthy will be satisfied with the tuna...or something...else.
