the bible is written by men - inspired by the desire to control men

Sadly, you are convinced of the logic in your thinking, which is in fact, utterly illogical. Essentially you are saying that complexity could not have arisen by itself, therefore is the result of an intelligent creator. You also expect everyone to listen to your arguments and come to the same conclusion. If complexity must come from an intelligent creator, what created the greater complexity of the creator? It is a logical contradiction to postulate that the material world had to be created, but its creator is eternal and self-creating. What was your logic behind the conclusion that the creator is exempt from your most important premise, that complexity cannot create itself?

I guess your argument negates the Big Bang Theory.

Correct. The Bible is so full of nonsense, no one who reads it can possibly believe in it. The clergy must maintain its purported belief in order continually to lure people to services during which the congregation makes the monetary contributions that sustain the clergy.


Ah! That is where you are wrong, I read the Bible, I believe. It is God's blueprint for mankind to follow. I will not belittle you for your lack of faith the way you constantly belittle me for having great faith. that is the difference between us.

"The Word" Is sharper than a double edged sword! For Believers and Non-Believers!

What amazes me about non believers is the animosity and even hate they have for believers whom they say tell them they are going to go to Hell if they don't believe. Why such strong feelings? If they really don't believe in Jesus then it should be no different than if they were told they would turn into a marshmellow tomorrow. I believe they fear that they are wrong and are afraid, otherwise it shouldn't bother them at all. Marshmellow or Hell? What is the difference if it has no meaning and comes from an uneducated moron?

If the Bibles words are the truth - every word true and meaning what it says. Just why is it when I point out a terrible act the Bible calls for - cutting of the sinful hand - plucking out the sinful eye - I am told ' Oh it don't really mean that - you have to understand _Bla Bla Bla - more double talk. These supposed intelligent "inspired" people are way off base when it comes to logical direction and guiding.
It would seem there would be a second book to accompany the "Babble" to properly interpreter these harmful Biblical directions as well as explaining the meaning of the Fairy Tails - the Ark, The Big fish(Whale),Pillar of salt, parting the Red Sea, Heaven & Hell.

I have no hate for the believers on the contrary I feel sorry for them that they have been duped by the folks who have lead them to their belief of this centuries old book of fairy tails and BS - yes there is some very good thoughts and directions on leading a good life and I like that part. When it comes to threatening me with untold horrors "If I Don't Turn Myself Completely Over To God" then that my friend is EXTORTION -

Are you referring to Fletcher Christian of the mutiny of the Bounty? I don't think it was overall, just a last name:shock:

I don't know much about non believers attacking believers other than with words, but history is full of events of believers from ANY religion torturing and burning alive the non-believers. In the Western World non-believers were called heretics and burnt at he stake to give them a preview of their eternal burning in hell. Frankly, I would prefer a little verbal animosity as response to a difference in opinions. I guess it is a matter of tastes.
