That's some terrible stuff, why would anyone that claims to be good want to follow those teachings?

As a sidenote, the bible is totally useless as a scientific tool, the source is highly questionable, the various translations from originals are biased and most of the text resembles children scare stories more than history.

Okay, NOW we're doomed.

Don'tcha remember that tv show 'Bewitched'???

Samantha had a dysfunctional family with magical powers and they drove that poor man Darren up the wall?

That was all a 60s 'Flower Power' Hollywood liberal left wing conspiracy to get good God-fearing Christian soldiers into allowing these 'pagans' to breed and spread their ... lewd and unholy ways. Amen.

The beauty of science is that nothing is written in stone. It's the ultimate in agnostic philosophy... no answers are assumed, even after they're proven. Everything is open to revision.

Religion on the other hand... that's not open to revision. It's dogma, and is not based on evidence, as is science.

So I agree that we shouldn't put 100% faith in science, but that's EXACTLY the point OF science. It's the endless search for truth, rather than the assumption of truth.

This is scary...lol.

Out of curiosity, which version of the bible do you believe is most used by the 'general' Christian public. I have always thought it was the King James version....

I agree....

ROTFLMAO!! :1orglaugh

You've got to be kidding me on this one..
Are you serious in saying that science hasn't proven the total farce of the biblical stories about 800 times over?

How on earth can you possibly believe that Science has not disproven that bullshit Adam and Eve story? Which of course would basically throw the human evolution and Natural Selection theories out the window.

At one time humans were so blinded by religious brainwashing that everyone of them convinced themselves that the world was the absolute center of the universe, this is no different, and every 'fact' in the bible falls under this category. The only reason they aren't completely ridiculed and shunned is because people's "faith" in something they can't understand, nor care to question because it fills a void in their life or answers questions that they are too lazy to figure out on their own.

But if you are raised from birth with something that does most of your thinking for you, and answers most of the hard questions in life for you why anyone really to get rid of it. It is like having a magical tool that eats, sleeps and shits for you, saves you a lot of work and trouble in life because you no longer need to worry about some of these things. I can understand why people want to keep religion in their life, although there is this itching in the back of their head questioning the whole kakamaimie affair. I suppose it is kind of like the Matrix.. If you lived a life having certain things answered for you, and believing certain things and then after 30 years or so you were given the opportunity to learn the truth the hard way or go back living in your perfect little figured out, albeit false, life I would bet that most people would choose the Second option(the blue pill?) as it is the path of least resistance..

Humans are lazy, lathargic and rather stupid at some points, religion is the perfect vehicle to encourage and further these traits while making a lot of people a lot of money..

Given Religions do serve their purpose, they do do a lot of good in the world(I would doubt if it is more than the bad tho), but that just shows another stupid point of humanity.. Why can't people give and be helpful without the penalty of 'going to hell' over there head..

Why can't people go to Africa to build wells, communities and such just because there are humans there that need our help?


Ah the humanity!!
