...when it was written by all these different men (some we dont' even know who they were) and collected by another group of men and formed into a collection, then passed down and constantly revised for hundreds of years? How could it even possibly be close to the word of god?

Honestly, I'm sick of Ahiest talking about about religious fucks, and I'm sick of Religious fucks trying to convert people. Believe what you want to believe, but don't push your beliefs on other mother fuckers...

I'm not trying to convince anyone of anything so how am I pushing my beliefs on anyone? I'm not shitting on anyone's religion. I'm just asking why people interpret the bible literally when it was written by men.
most sensible religious people (they exist!) read the stories as purely allegorical parables and learn lessons about life from them and just like *belief* in god they *believe* that this is the word of god passed down
..parables and learn lessons about life from them..
Quote from: white Boy on June 30, 2009, 07:02:48 PM..parables and learn lessons about life from them..I agree.I believe The Bible whole heartily, of course not word for word, becuz it's logically been edited over centuries, as it went thru different languages and all, but I do believe in it, regardless. I quote it. Live by it. I think it's a great read. I love that shit. I love inspiration. I think that shit is great. I don't imagine a person who believes in God is weak-minded, I consider them to be strong-minded to have faith in somethang unseen. Now don't get me wrong niggas, there's different kinds of people and religious nutz out there who take it to a whole nother level. I personally think Born Again Christians are fuckin' crazy, in my honest opinion to name one. LOL. But if you a sensible human and could take the overall meaning of it into consideration, good for you. Really.My thought process is like, how could you deny God? Like for real. Spirituality is a good look to me. I salute people men. Faith is important to have in ya life. If you need it, too. The Bible do say that faith is the substance of things hoped for and it's the evidence of things not seen. So fuck, I guess at this day and age, it shows you got SOME kind of strength to trust in somethang that the naked eye can't see.I don't know. I love negro spirituals. I love old fashioned gospel songs. I love when people look to God honestly for themselves, not ones who just do it, to DO IT, you know what I'm sayin'? Preachers are wack. From all religions. They are more hypocritical than any of the followers. That's why I say, you gots to read The Bible for YOU. Read yourself. Find meaning in it for YOUR self. Interrupt it for YOUR self.Shitttt, ya'll can argue how hypocritical these people are, 'followers of God', I'm FUCKIN' WIT YOU. I'm wit you. Trust in that. People who go to Church. People who pray....for just themselves. All these people who claim to be 'believers' but who disobey all God's laws. I don't care how much you use the excuse of human nature. Ya know. I can understand that.Yeah I do have my opinions about Atheists, obviously as a person who do believe in God. But I mean everybody has rights and are entitled to beliefs so I can't say much, really. I ain't one of those people to push anythang on anybody, I don't like them preachers and Bible quoters who go around lookin' dumb, talkin' dumb. You can be just as faithful by sittin' in your bedroom all alone, havin' a one on one.From another view...I won't front, I go back and forth wit it all the time. Like for one whole week I'll be constantly praying and living by a verse or somethang and than the next week get real discouraged and forget about it, until maybe another week and get a change of hope again. Not that I'm becoming agnostic or nuthin' just becoming hopeless. But that's when you read it again. Inspiration. Anyways, but yup, I'm one of them who reads The Bible and takes it seriously so...hey. There's my opinions in type.
I don't agree with everything in the bible, but it teachers morals.Morals are what differentiates us from animals
