You gotta learn how to interpret it bro. Then it can mean whatever you want to to mean.

What's the difference between Zeus and his buddies, and JC of Nazareth? 

JC was a documented factual person.

Any other brain busters?

Oooohhhh, I see where the confusion is. You think anti-religious people don't actually read the Bible. Trust me, we very much do. It's one of the best comedies I've ever read.

Gotta say, Sodom and Gomorrah sounded like a great place to party

No the bible was not clearly "made up" as there are numerous facts that can be confirmed with other historical documents

Seriously, go ask an adult to help you with this

Was the Captain America movie made up?  Because WW2 really happened and that's in the movie.

Some Christians do read the Old Testament right?

Some, but it is inherently different than the new testament

Maybe you all should google this stuff before trying to show your arses in here

Some do, sure

 But in general, religious people are more informed about the bible than non religious by definition

To somehow think otherwise is idiotic

Are you saying we should take one literally but not the other one?

Yes of course.  But to take the old testament literally is foolish.  Youre cherry picking because you lack an understanding of the bible and how it was composed and why

Oh yeah, they got some facts mixed in with all that made up stuff? Cool.

Do you really want everyone to know youre this dumb?   Is that what you woke up today to accomplish?

You just cherry picked testaments though.

Of course. He was a white dude with blue eyes and a perfectly trimmed goatee. We all know that already.

Also, he rose up from being dead you know! He yelled out, "Psyche!" and then tried to start a travelling show like David Blaine.

Now youre joking because youve reached the end of what you thought you knew about christianity and the bible

Whenever the Bible is involved it's all one big joke. Sorry.

Did he?  Did your 15 year old buddies tell you that while smoking your dads cigarettes under the bleachers and talking about the corporations?

Thats your opinion, and its an uninformed one

I don't know.

 

See, it's easy! If you don't know just say "I don't know". Its a much better way to go about life than pretending you know by believing in magic. 

 

Keep waiting though. Eventually someone much smarter than any of us will figure it out. Then we will know.

Just now, Mike31mt said:

Oh? So you agree God didn't slaughter babies, because he isn't a real thing?

You tell me

You guys are so smart, youre the ones showering yourselves in glory for not being religious

Since that makes you so smart you should figure this all out

What part?  In that part, is everything to be taken literally?

Educate me

You agree with my take on abortion

You just have to argue for attention

Go start a misogyny thread if thats what you want to discuss

No I don't agree with your take on abortion. Your take basically amounts to characterizing IVF clinics as extermination camps. You also act like abortion and misogyny are unrelated concepts, despite the fact that the Bible (even the new testament) has historically been used by fundamentalist Christian communities to subjugate women. Not unique to Christianity by any stretch, you see much of the same thing in Jewish and Muslim communities too. The moral of the story is don't take the Bible or any other ancient text too literally if you don't want to be called out for bizarre views which are incompatible with a modern civilized society.
