Just look at http://www.bible.ca/, you will see fundy bullshit all over
here. I don't know how stupid you have to be to take anything from the
website seriously.

"Few"?

Would you say that "there are few African-Americans in the United States"?

Because that number is just under *twice* as many Biblical literalists as there are
African-Americans, just to make up one illustrative example.

But more importantly, the term "the entire Bible" is a poor metric. It's not all
or none. Many a Christian may not believe the Flood happened but will be
one hundred percent certain that Jesus is the Son of God. Or regard a talking serpent
as an allegory but hold it as factual, sure and certain beyond any doubt whatsoever
that God exists.

Walk into a Christian church -- not hardcore Evangelical, just mainstream Christian --
and try telling them that they don't hold the divinity of Christ or the existence of God
as facts and you will be in for some interesting conversations.

But face it, how many Christians don't believe the virgin birth and

You two idiots criticize religion, but you are ignorant of it. All religions have different sects or denominations that

Christians have:

Mormons

Jews have

Orthodox
Reform
Conservative

Moslems have numerous sects and so do Buddhists

You arrogant fuckers are always trying to tell other people how to live.

Is that the way the military gives orders -

If troops are entitled to plain words and

reasonable god do likewise?

ignorance, contradictions, atrocities..a reflection of humankind

not say exactly what He means literally,

There is no possibility until these morons demonstrate their

YET sinners, Christ died for us.

"To seek your own will is to seek your own glory".

"If God is not first in everything He is not first in anything".

"Sin is not what you do, it is what you are".

"What makes the bible the truth?" "The resonance of God".

"All men were born sinners. Why? Because all men were born not loving
God with all their heart, soul and mind. An abomination".

"Compromise will condemn you".

"There are no sinners in Christ Jesus".

"My sons are born of Me. In them is no darkness at all".

"You can't learn righteousness. Haven't you had enough time already to
know that?"

"The way of truth is the testimony of life".

"I merely speak the truth, what is revealed to me, and the cards fall
where God intends."

"Nothing that is produced is produced without first being faith."

It's a habit I developed as a student taking courses on statistics,

Still, while biblical literalism has waned, the vast majority of Americans -
71% - continue to view the Bible as a holy document, believing it is at least
God-inspired if not God's own words.

choose. They believe the bits their denomination tells them are
fact, and ignore the other bits which say something else.
But face it, how many Christians don't believe the virgin birth
and the resurrection because these things simply don't happen?
In the same way that Mad Joe wouldn't believe in Moses and the
Exodus if he lived in the real world?

What they *don't* do is offer anything resembling an objective
standard by which to determine which bits are really, really true,
yup, is too and which bits ain't.

That's a lie. The problem is you atheist assholes are too lazy to
look up the interpretations.

I said "objective". Interpretations are, more or less by definition,
subjective.
And if there were an objective interpretation, why would there be
something like 17,000 different flavours of the same belief system,
all based on different interpretations of the same source?
Oh. Yeah. That little issue you conveniently ignore.

Idiot. Different interpretations are not mistakes.

If the rules are so vague they result in
hundreds of "interpretations" whose fault is that?

ROTFL! Firat you say religion is worthless. Now you say we aren't practicing it correctly.
YOU ARE AN IDIOT.

Well, that's true ... only if there is no correct interpretation to be had.
Which will be the case when the murky thing being interpreted to death
actually has no grounding in reality.

He called Jews "cafeteria Jews" and Christians "cafeteria

You pick out the parts of the

The poll says 24%. That disproves the idiotic claim
that theists consider their religious beliefs as
fact.

So the same people who say the Bible is the
Revealed Word Of God also admit it is full of mistakes
and fabrications.
What does that tell you?

Even literalists, inerrantists and fundamentalists
pick and choose. They believe the bits their
denomination tells them are fact, and ignore the other
bits which say something else.
But face it, how many Christians don't believe the
virgin birth and the resurrection because these things
simply don't happen?
In the same way that Mad Joe wouldn't believe in Moses
and the Exodus if he lived in the real world?

What they *don't* do is offer anything resembling an
objective standard by which to determine which bits are
really, really true, yup, is too and which bits ain't.

That's a lie. The problem is you atheist assholes are too
lazy to look up the interpretations.

I said "objective". Interpretations are, more or less by
definition, subjective.
And if there were an objective interpretation, why would
there be something like 17,000 different flavours of the
same belief system, all based on different interpretations
of the same source?
Oh. Yeah. That little issue you conveniently ignore.

Idiot. Different interpretations are not mistakes.

If the rules are so vague they result in
hundreds of "interpretations" whose fault is that?

LOL. Apparently you don't read it either, from

The poll says 24%. That disproves the idiotic
claim that theists consider their religious
beliefs as fact.

So the same people who say the Bible is the
Revealed Word Of God also admit it is full of
mistakes and fabrications.
What does that tell you?

Even literalists, inerrantists and fundamentalists
pick and choose. They believe the bits their
denomination tells them are fact, and ignore the
other bits which say something else.
But face it, how many Christians don't believe the
virgin birth and the resurrection because these
things simply don't happen?
In the same way that Mad Joe wouldn't believe in
Moses and the Exodus if he lived in the real world?

What they *don't* do is offer anything resembling an
objective standard by which to determine which bits
are really, really true, yup, is too and which bits
ain't.

That's a lie. The problem is you atheist assholes are
too lazy to look up the interpretations.

I said "objective". Interpretations are, more or less by
definition, subjective.
And if there were an objective interpretation, why would
there be something like 17,000 different flavours of the
same belief system, all based on different
interpretations of the same source?
Oh. Yeah. That little issue you conveniently ignore.

Idiot. Different interpretations are not mistakes.

If the rules are so vague they result in
hundreds of "interpretations" whose fault is that?

ROTFL! Firat you say religion is worthless. Now you say we
aren't practicing it correctly. YOU ARE AN IDIOT.

Quote the part where he says that.

He called Jews "cafeteria Jews" and Christians "cafeteria
Christians". You never provide evidence for anything, hypocrite.

You pick out the parts of the
Bible you believe and dismiss the
rest. That makes you a Cafeteria
Jew.

All religions do that.

No, all theists do that.

Different denominations interpret the bible
differently.

If a religion's text are so bizarre
that even it's followers don't believe
all of it whose fault is that?

We don't consider it a fault. We just learn to interpret it. Why do
you need everything spelled out for you in simple language?

Because that is what you do when you want
orders to be understood. Does the military
issue orders by way of allegories or do they
make them direct, simple, and free of any
"interpretation"?

Use of metaphors and allegory was common practice in the ancient world.
I am sure you have heard that. Anyway, I cannot rewrite the bible and no Jew will do it.
Why don't you complain to the Pope?

Why don't we just have atheists rewrite the bible.
Then it would finally make sense.

And, be much shorter.
Just don't be a dick.
One commandment and some pages explaining how
not to be one.

"I am God. I'm psychotic, jealous and short tempered with a pechant
for human sacifice, tortrure and death...you must kiss my ass else

[Levi. 15:19] When a woman has a discharge of blood
which in her regular discharge from her body, she
shall be apart seven days. And WHOSOEVER TOUCHES
HER SHALL BE UNCLEAN until the evening. And every
thing that she lies upon in her SEPARATION shall be
unclean. Every thing also that SHE SITS UPON SHALL
BE UNCLEAN. And whosoever touches her bed shall wash
his clothes and bathe himself in water, and be unclean
until the evening. And whosoever touches anything THAT
SHE SAT UPON SHALL WASH HIS CLOTHES, and bathe himself
in water, and be unclean until the evening.

The poll says 24%. That disproves the idiotic claim
that theists consider their religious beliefs as fact.

So the same people who say the Bible is the
Revealed Word Of God also admit it is full of mistakes
and fabrications.
What does that tell you?

Even literalists, inerrantists and fundamentalists pick
and choose. They believe the bits their denomination
tells them are fact, and ignore the other bits which say
something else.
But face it, how many Christians don't believe the virgin
birth and the resurrection because these things simply
don't happen?
In the same way that Mad Joe wouldn't believe in Moses
and the Exodus if he lived in the real world?

What they *don't* do is offer anything resembling an
objective standard by which to determine which bits are
really, really true, yup, is too and which bits ain't.

That's a lie. The problem is you atheist assholes are too
lazy to look up the interpretations.

I said "objective". Interpretations are, more or less by
definition, subjective.
And if there were an objective interpretation, why would there
be something like 17,000 different flavours of the same belief
system, all based on different interpretations of the same
source?
Oh. Yeah. That little issue you conveniently ignore.

Idiot. Different interpretations are not mistakes.

If the rules are so vague they result in
hundreds of "interpretations" whose fault is that?

ROTFL! Firat you say religion is worthless. Now you say we aren't
practicing it correctly. YOU ARE AN IDIOT.

Quote the part where he says that.

He called Jews "cafeteria Jews" and Christians "cafeteria Christians".
You never provide evidence for anything, hypocrite.

You pick out the parts of the
Bible you believe and dismiss the
rest. That makes you a Cafeteria
Jew.

All religions do that. Different denominations interpret the bible differently.

...and therein lies the problem. If there were a real god, the Bible
would be clear and precise...there would be no need for
interpretations !

LOL! The bible was written thousands of years ago in several different languages. It was not designed for you.

The poll says 24%. That disproves the idiotic claim that
theists consider their religious beliefs as fact.

So the same people who say the Bible is the
Revealed Word Of God also admit it is full of mistakes and
fabrications.
What does that tell you?

Even literalists, inerrantists and fundamentalists pick and
choose. They believe the bits their denomination tells them are
fact, and ignore the other bits which say something else.
But face it, how many Christians don't believe the virgin birth
and the resurrection because these things simply don't happen?
In the same way that Mad Joe wouldn't believe in Moses and the
Exodus if he lived in the real world?

What they *don't* do is offer anything resembling an objective
standard by which to determine which bits are really, really true,
yup, is too and which bits ain't.

That's a lie. The problem is you atheist assholes are too lazy to
look up the interpretations.

I said "objective". Interpretations are, more or less by definition,
subjective.
And if there were an objective interpretation, why would there be
something like 17,000 different flavours of the same belief system,
all based on different interpretations of the same source?
Oh. Yeah. That little issue you conveniently ignore.

Idiot. Different interpretations are not mistakes.

If the rules are so vague they result in
hundreds of "interpretations" whose fault is that?

ROTFL! Firat you say religion is worthless. Now you say we aren't practicing it correctly.

!

The Christian fundamentalists follow it to the letter and most of them are free.

...say what ??? If Christian fundamentalists are following the Bible
to the letter then we'd better start building more prisons:

1) Capital Punishment Crimes:

Kill People Who Don’t Listen to Priests
Anyone arrogant enough to reject the verdict of the judge or of the
priest who represents the LORD your God must be put to death. Such
evil must be purged from Israel. (Deuteronomy 17:12 NLT)

Kill Witches
You should not let a sorceress live. (Exodus 22:17 NAB)

Kill Homosexuals
“If a man lies with a male as with a women, both of them shall be put
to death for their abominable deed; they have forfeited their lives.”
(Leviticus 20:13 NAB)

Kill Fortunetellers
A man or a woman who acts as a medium or fortuneteller shall be put to
death by stoning; they have no one but themselves to blame for their
death. (Leviticus 20:27 NAB)

Death for Hitting Dad
Whoever strikes his father or mother shall be put to death. (Exodus
21:15 NAB)

Death for Cursing Parents
1) If one curses his father or mother, his lamp will go out at the
coming of darkness. (Proverbs 20:20 NAB)

2) All who curse their father or mother must be put to death. They
are guilty of a capital offense. (Leviticus 20:9 NLT)

Death for Adultery
If a man commits adultery with another man’s wife, both the man and
the woman must be put to death. (Leviticus 20:10 NLT)

Judaism may have such a rule. Christianity does not.

In fact, in some periods, it was against Roman law to be
a christian at all. So all christians renounced their

If biblical law is superseded by civil law, why do biblical laws need
to be followed? Clearly civil laws were deemed to be better than
biblical laws; that implies that humans are better at coming up with
laws than divine inspiration.

And from there, it's not a difficult step to understand just how
fragile the biblical laws are. After all, one would think that a
supreme being would have handed down laws that wouldn't require
modification, no?

The poll says 24%. That disproves the
idiotic claim that theists consider their
religious beliefs as fact.

The brainless dope ArtyJoe thinks 24% is
"few". Go back to grammar school, you
fucking moron.

What percentage of Christians believe in the virgin birth, crucifixion
and redirection? What percentage of Jews believe in Moses and the
Exodus?
And that's without all the loonies who insist that Genesis creation,
Noah's flood, etc actually happened.

ROTFL! Believing the message of a story does not mean you take it literally.

What is the point of believe then????

The deliberately weaseling liar knows I wasn't talking about some
supposed message, but the religious belief that obvious nonsense was
fact.

Which he obviously couldn't answer after painting himself into a
corner.

As Duke explained, God used the flood waters to save Noah
from the flood waters, which symbolizes how God loves
people who get baptized.

These are the kinds of meanings that unbelievers just
don't understand.
