For those of you who have ever read the Bible, or some of it...

[Samus Aran]

Well when you make fun of it and call it a science fiction book...

Light-hearted joke in the midst of a serious discussion. If you really have a big problem with that, then you're not very open-minded.

[Gman61]

It wasn't that one comment it was all of them(not all of yours)

[YPrrrr]

Which is one thing I like about Christians like you. I don't think it's healthy to believe in something blindly. You have to leave it open for some sort of questioning.

That's probably the nicest thing anyone's said to me in a religion thread <3

Hey Gman, if you are going to play the "religion card" for the reason as to why people are calling you an idiot, then fine I'll play into that.

Let's play a little game: People God Killed vs People Satan Killed.  pseudo;

Satan: 10 (Job's 7 sons and 3 daughters)--o wait, he was given permission by God to do this so God would win a little bet with him.

God: I don't even know how many it's so high.    Let's see

• The Flood


• Every First Born in Egypt


• Lot's Wife


• A shit load of people

Or if you go by this list http://www.rationalresponders.com/forum/rook_hawkins/biblical_errancy/3582 Over 2 million




Now tell me about that benevolent God you love.


The one who says that he is a jealous God.

[Gman61]

He's jealous when we put other things before him

[Daddy]

He's jealous when we put other things before him

Jealousy is envy, that's a deadly sin, is it not?

[Gman61]

[YPrrrr]

Jealousy is envy, that's a deadly sin, is it not?

It's not really jealousy... It just breaks the commandment that says one should not believe in false gods besides him.

[Daddy]

I'm not a catholic

but catholicism has been around longer than protestantism so it's truer

[Gman61]

I never said that the longer something was around the truer it is

[Daddy]

I never said that the longer something was around the truer it is

but the deadly sins concept has been around a long time so it must have some truth

[Gman61]

It does. They are all sins

[V]

[Selkie]
