I consider them all equally guilty.

that proves you are unrealistic and close-minded which makes the rest of your post not worth responding to . by the way all those examples born of a virgin, where are they now? all were imposters except Christ

It means that it's all bullshit and Jesus wasn't born either.....he was created. So much of the Jesus cult was stolen from Mithraism that it isn't funny.

And I'll stick by my statement. Doesn't matter if its a pope or Billy Graham or Sun Myung Moon; they're all phonies and crooks.

my point is proved... when it comes to the Bible there is no objectivity just personal bias. so now i can dismiss all that you have said for you only look to what supports your personal bias and do not look for nor consider the truth.

Fuck the bible...I'm talking about all the charlatans who use it to make a buck.

Surely even someone as blind as you can see the difference.

tsk. tsk. such language. even preacher's are allowed to be paid and not all are charlatans.

They "sell" salvation to the gullible. They have no more idea what happens after death than you or I do.

true, some do but let's be a little realistic and not generalize. not all do. but if gulllibility is a pre-requisite to salvation i guess i would line up there to. let's see---salvation or no salvation...hmmmm kind of an easy choice don't you think?

well if you read the book of revelations, you will get a good idea.

The biggest pile of horseshit in the whole book.

A thinly veiled reference to Roman oppression which the gullible have used to scare themselves shitless throughout history.

Personally, if a bunch of christians suddenly disappeared via rapture I think it would do wonders for real estate values.

Yeah....and something about it being easier for a camel to pass through the eye of a needle than a rich man to enter heaven, right?

I wonder how these televangelists rationalize that one?

came across some interesting tidbits yesterday but i am wondering if i should post them or not, knowing minimalist's track record of denying anything that doesn't come from his accepted list of qualified people.

If you can't stand the heat, stay out of the kitchen.

Or, are your "experts" immune to criticism?

it is not that i can't stand the heat, it just gets tiring to read flimsy excuses for not acknowledging alternative opinions or accepting other people who were endowed with the same brain capacity of those on the 'accepted' list

Listen, arch, these Holy Joes that you trot out are entitled to any OPINION they like. None of the sonsofbitches ever have any PROOF of what they say, insisting that gullible fools take their word on FAITH.

You should have figured out by now that that shit don't cut it with me.
