the bible is not bullshit so much as it is a point of view from people from that time period, ie: matthew ,mark, luke and john. It is a matter of perspective and understanding and how we choose to view it and interpret it. Too many people take it literally. If it makes you a better person,fine. But far too long hads it been used to harm people and nations ie" salem witch trials, etc etc in history. Like I said in another post, the bible was edited to egt more attendance to churches by making God to look like a vengful, wrathful God and put people into a state of fear and submission. If you look at the original bible, God is shown as loving and caring and not some tyrant. It was changed to benefit the churches bottom finacial line.

this is true
fanatics have made their own bible look foolish. but not very many religious people even read the bible, they just blindly believe.

If you look at the original bible

Please provide a copy of this "original bible."

only if you provide the original process of evolution to be observed right now. i am curious to see an ape turning into a human. fossils just don't do it for me.

You won't even accept fossils of fish climbing out of the ocean. You're hopeless.

But, in fairness I decided to give your side a little air time.

The Bible Doesn't Mention Any "Ice Age," So Shut Up About It!
Movie Review

FREEHOLD, IOWA - After only 2-minutes into Disney's film, "Ice Age," its clear that the intent of the feature is not to entertain young viewers, but to indoctrinate them with "scientific theories." These theories (secular lies) are already being placed into our children's poor little heads each day they attend public school and are taught by lisping, homosexual, home-room teachers who spit AIDS and secular lies onto their clean white faces. Apparently, liberal scholars and most scientists now agree that a so called "ice age" was caused by an avalanche set off by a mutated (secular word for "demon-shaped") squirrel with buck teeth looking for acorns. Would you believe that unsaved people are buying into this outrageous garbage!

but we digress, which isa your strong suit. you don't like sticking to the issue as you know that you do not have the proof you need and must distract those who can point out the truth.

again, if one looks honestly, they will see that the evidence points to the flood and not any other explanation.
