[QUOTE="The Other Side, post: 1233456, member: 17969"] The bible being referred to as written history is exactly the kind of blind faith people have because they cant understand science. How the universe and planets were created is always going to be somewhat of a mystery, but one thing is for certain. NO SPACE GOD had any hand in its creation. The Bible is always referred to as "The Greatest Story Ever told" for a reason. Its just that, a STORY. When written, there was NO method of fact checking, there were no documented scientific studies. Everything that happened on earth, from volcanos, to earthquakes, to floods, to famine, to desease all the way up to a SOLAR ECLIPSE, the perpetrators of this "STORY" assigned to "GOD". An intelligent being who lived in the sky (where coincedentally nobody could get to) was the answer for all these calamities. It was an easy story to sell. Heck, even today, the republicans are telling the same kind of lies and people like moreluck not only believe them, but repeat them daily and that goes to show you how even the most moronic story can be believed. Thomas Jefferson himself said the bible was full of lies and distortions and its stories about "acts of god" defied science at its core. He felt so strongly about the bible being a bunch of Crap, he wrote his own bible ( The Jefferson Bible) and he Redacted everything out of the bible he thought B.S. Congressmen, Senators and other politicians were sworn in on the Jefferson bible vs the bible you believe to be filled with EYE WITNESSES. But so I am clear, everyone is entitled to believe what they want and if they want to hang their collective hats on a space god living in some space camp waiting millions of years to return to earth to bring out his turning to ash and stone tricks, then sobeit. Ringling bros has no problems filling an arena when the circus comes to town. Everything in the bible is a scare tactic. Scaring people into blind faith so that even in death they have something to fear. Thomas Paine said that the bible was not that of a GOD, but more of a demon with all its debauchery, murder and rape stories. I agree with the founders. SCIENCE can explain many things, and to believe Moses split open a sea and simply walked across the Silt filled bottom of the ocean like it was a crosswalk is the biggest crock ever. If you have ever scuba dived, and seen the bottom of the ocean floor, you would know that would be virtually impossible. For me, I like the part of the bible where GOD orders the fathers of young daughters to stone their daughters to death in the center of town if their husbands find out they were not virgins at marriage. Thats the kind of GOD I want to hang out with and pin my hopes of seeing one day. What a crock. TOS. [/QUOTE]
