JC referes to the scriptures..but does he refere to A & E and Noah? the acient theologist probably put them there possibly cos it fitted with a god message at that time. Anyway i am concerned that you are coming away from what you originally set out to do and that was to research more about the content of the bible, and now it feels like you are being drawn down the route of attacking relegion because its the easiest option!!! Entertaining yes, but good for you ...?

well, he supposedly died to absolve us of our sins and I'm assuming original sin. of course original sin started off in the garden of eden. I'm not really attacking religion.. I'm just trying look at the absurdities associated with certain aspects of it.

Interesting, but Its widely considered the "word" of god not written by god. Fortunately it has been translated so we call all read it and make our own conclusions. Unlike the Quoran for example which hasnt and interpretations are dished out by the local priest, and that works well doesnt it. As a hisotical doc the bible & NewTestament stands up very well. With that much documentation behind it why not take it at least at face value, or are you more likely to believe whats in the papers.

If you mean that it is considered to be mans interpretation of what man thinks god would say if God had personally transcribed it... then I see your point. I actually have no problem with that idea as I think that is exactly what occured. However..if God did psychically transcribe it then you would imagine it to be perfect in every regard and you would assume he would'nt allow any dodgy stories or translation errors to occur. Many believe that god personally transcribed it but only certain parts

The new testament certainly holds up better historically than the old. It still has a ton of debateable points and flaws and of course leaps of faith have to be taken to accept the stories and events contained within. Milder and more inspiring than the old testament by a long chalk, ..but jesus believed in adam and eve and moses etc...and that gives me problems as I think those characters are fictional. If the son of god is believing in fictional characters then something is screwy somewhere.

It is interesting that you are so upset about the Bible. I mean I can't see myslef being so engaged in fight against peoples beliefs. Where does that agitation come from? Relax man! Take it easy! There is no need to be so agitated about it.

lol, I appreciate your concern - I'll keep taking the tablets.

[ZergrushEddie]

I could never understand how people could persistently say that the Bible is the literal word of God. Let's see here...

Translations:

1. It was, probably, written in a now lost language.

2. Translated to Farsi.

3. Translated to Greek, where it was preserved.

4. Translated from Greek into Latin, where the Roman Empire may have changed things to fit their lives.

5. From Latin to German, English, Spanish, and French.

I don't know about you, but the game Telephone comes into mind a little

You're right, there's a distinct difference between religion and spirituality. Spirituality is a personal thing, a lifestyle to help or satisfy oneself. There aren't buildings, or rules, or threats, or symbols, or fearmongering, or age-old books. Those are products of religion. I am an atheist, but I am spiritually fulfilled and lead a satisfying life.

The best period of my life was being outcasted by the church my family attended, because it was when I first felt somewhat enlightened.

"That's not me! They're just making this shit up!" ROFLMAO!!! You nailed it.

[julzabro]

Ok, dad, boy u told me!

[julzabro]

I respect the fact that u r TRYING 2 seperate urself from religion. That's the first step back 2 reality. HOWEVER, u r still worshipping a Book that....even if u feel is only 3/4 BS....u MUST throw out the whole thing! A lot of JC's teachings were very enlightening but it doesn't mean He existed NOR that He was divine! U can find similar teachings within Buddism!

[julzabro]

I don't recall calling m yself an intellectual but I am wise enuff 2 know that ur last comment made NO sense! And u sound like u need meds!
