A Few Problems With the Bible

A sort of indirect response to Guideoftheblind's video, http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=I5B5BriOsTQ

Nothing here is new information, but nonetheless I figured I'd put something together on the subject.

As for the second coming, a generation, as spoken here in the Bible, is not a literal generation, but refers to the generation of the church, an indefinite amount of time. Not 40 years. And as for those who would not taste death until they saw the Son of man come in glory, that would be John the Apostle, who was taken to the end in the spirit, to give witness, and to write the Revelation. So, yeah, its all good. And true.

@ukulelemike "a generation, as spoken here in the Bible, is not a literal generation, but refers to the generation of the church, an indefinite amount of time."

Can you back that up?

[ukulelemike]

So, your lack of understanding and your desire to judge the Bible and the Creator, discounts the Bible? Wow. You must pretty much know everything, because you are using your extremely limited reasoning to judge that which is infinite. That you don't like how God does things, doesn't make it false. How arrogant. Adam and Eve knew good from evil good was obeying God, evil was disobeying Him. To eat from the tree was forbidden because they decided to experience evil, bringing the fall.

@ukulelemike

I don't have a desire to judge the Creator; I have the desire to judge a character in a book.

I completely agree with you, however, that this character's existence does not depend on whether or not I like its actions. I don't think I've ever claimed otherwise.

@thenatostandard Who are you referring to?

[malignantpoodle]

I got that he was explaining why he didn't believe in the bible. I don't see him trying to take anyone's faith away.

But let's be honest; that's not at all what you didn't like. What you didn't like is that he made damn good arguments against the bible. If Christians lose faith over a youtube video, then what does that say about faith anyway?

[Gnug215]

Faith is faith? That's fine. So you mean to say that faith doesn't affect anything in society? Faith doesn't make people act in certain ways that others may find objectionable?

If it does, is it not appropriate for others to question it?

Not to forget that this video is a response to another video, with the title: "Atheist, show me where the bible where it's flawed"

That's right, another Christian asked for this video response.

Atheism is the way of the future.
