You know, when you pretend that is somehow accurate, you just betray the fact that you are completely ignorant of the scriptures.

Afraid of a real discussion on the topic, I see. Not surprising.
A "real" discussion about religion and god is oxymoronic.
That's a bit childish.
True. The bible and "god" is a lot more improbable than a Spidy man.
I'm not a religious or spiritual person, but it gets aggravating when people ignore two thousand years of scholarship on the subject of God and what he means, and act like they have new ideas.

I am a religious person who has studied the Bible all of my life and every day new ideas occur. Ways to apply ancient texts to current life.
Our congregation had no full-time minister and while we searched for a new minister, they assigned a retired Minister to come and preach on Sundays. The Reverend was a very famous world renowned Biblical scholar, highly respected throughout the world. He could take a 2000 year old piece of scripture and make is resonate in today's modern world like it was written last week. I never wanted to miss a single Sunday service when he was there.
If there were not new ideas to interpret the Bible in relation to current events or life throughout the ages, Christianity would have died out long ago. It is exactly because the great religious texts resonate and become new again in each age that these religions survive.

Non religious literature does the same though
Yes, yes it does.

No it isn't. We could try to dumb it down for you, if you'd like.
Sooo, Christians are using "new ideas to interpret the Bible" in new ways. Damn, that makes my head spin.

You will never get passed the part where it is a waste of my time to accomodate your fantasy.

There's hasn't been anything really revolutionary since the Reformation.
