Read? It's even in the frickin' movies! You,.. have yet to respond, but I don't care. I expect you to see it as a "natural disaster" because you've clearly programmed yourself to see everything "God" as fuzzy bunnies and rainbows.. no matter what.You haven't read about that?phenomena and wow, "In Exodus, he kills the first born of Egypt" describes a "natural disaster"!
Shrug. You are among those who see each modern English word of the Bible as literally true. It is not a matter of seeing bunnies and rainbows, it is a matter of studying and researching histories, languages, and cultures. That includes Egyptian beliefs, history, and culture. God doesn't enter into it; people of the day do.Read? It's even in the frickin' movies! You,.. have yet to respond, but I don't care.

God slaughtered innocent children for what the Pharaoh refused to do.Fascinating. So, in your world, "he" doesn't kill "the first born of Egypt."? If that isn't what you're trying to say, then perhaps fart twice and take a nap.
Oh look ^^, a self-loathing closet gay, in the religion section. Don't see that every day! Wait, yes we do.We would have been just as ignorant, terrified, superstitious, and illiterate as nearly everyone else "back then". But we arent, now. So you have no excuse for believing this magical silliness.Considering the age of these texts, I find your conclusions to be overly simple, unbalanced and biased. It never ceases to amaze me how a group of people who see themselves as intellectually enlightened fail to actually take an intellectually balanced position on the things they hate.Again... you are missing the informational aspect; the transfer of information.Embellishment to make the account more memorable and easier to remember and pass down.Is that really what you believe happened? That all of these different authors were writing fictional novels?
Fiction such as a great flood and parting the seas?
In other words, fictional tales
No, the whale did not really swallow Jonah
What if, 2000 years from now, people read Game of Thrones and accept it as Gospel?
But if you want to dismiss that, be my guest. It's probably easier for you that way than it is to acknowledge what it really is.
The Bible is composed of morality tales meant to inspire certain behaviors. A work of fiction
No, the earth did not flood
Jonah was not swallowed by a whale
Moses did not part the Red Sea
Makes a good story though
Because they're simple minded and can't get beyond themselves. They think they're 'Speshul' and would have been entirely different n stuff if they had been born back then. Of course the truth is they would have been the same clueless fashion victims then as they are now.
Oh look everybody, the angry faggot posted something.
It is amazing what can be picked up with scholarly studies of Egyptian religions, cultures, history--not to mention what happens when a story is written or told after-the-fact. However, your literal modern English, Western culture perspective is amusing as well, so carry on.Fascinating. So, in your world, "he" doesn't kill "the first born of Egypt."?
or do atheists have an obligation to hate the Bible?
In a way, yes. However, scanning a youngster's T-ball rules doesn't infuse anyone with expert knowledge of professional football. (No one should infer from this that atheists cannot be Bible experts. It is just generally speaking.)To an Atheist, the BIble is a book. It's a really long novel; nothing more, nothing less. The fact that someone may not believe in God doesn't mean he has to hate the Bible. It just means that it's a story...

I.E., it becomes fiction.not to mention what happens when a story is written or told after-the-fact.
I always do.So I can't argue that man knows right from wrong and that when he violates it rather than abandoning the concept he rationalizes that he didn't violate it?Yes and I pass out free copies of Mere Christianity to everyone who attends.Ironically you yourself reveal your preference for good over evil with every moral argument you make. Which also shows that you believe in absolute truth and morals. Otherwise you would have no expectation for one outcome over another.and/or evading the police for not wearing one.
Sorry.
We’re like wayward children
Can I post this?
It's 2021, so by now, you should realize Christianity is all about social justice and liberating those kept down by white patriarchial cis-normative systems of oppression. Jesus said it best when he uttered the timeless command: "Go forth into all the nations, and loot them until they become Socialists."
But Jesus wasn't the only one! There are a ton of great examples of heavenly wokeness in the scriptures. Here are the top 10.

The Bible is just filled with heroes to emulate! Now go forth, and be woke!
Is that so?
Thankyou for telling me.
Do you hold seminars too?
Please don’t plagiarise CS Lewis.
It’s not polite.
Cause he plagiarized that from Genesis Chapter 2.
You can argue what you like.
If you could simplify your premise.

Next how do stories develop? How are they written? You received a short course in this in middle and high school. Why is it with some, everything they have learned about science, history, and language arts fly out the window when reading a Biblical text? Why not join the rest of us in looking at the wider perspective, with knowledge we have gained down through the years and in our own life?

Those free from religion always enjoy good fiction.Not sure I can agree with that.That’s exactly what happened.Is that really what you believe happened? That all of these different authors were writing fictional novels?That wouldn't be my assessment. It's not very balanced.Lord of the Rings is fantasy, much like the BibleI have read better books and they were written by mere mortal men.The bible is an excellent piece of literature,
No, you haven't. Lord of the Rings wasn't really that great, no matter what a bunch of hippie stoners say about it.
VYou would think a Supreme Being would be a better writer
It's way over your head, so you wouldn't know about that either.
Now, what if 2000 years from now, people took Lord of the Rings as the word of God?
It’s a better tale than the Bible.
What if 2000 years from now, people worship Lord of the Rings or Game of Thrones?
When questioned....they say they have “Faith” it is all true
And that it wasn't ancient man passing down information such as history, wisdom, etc?
.So it's settled... BreezeWood can't enjoy the bible.

I stopped reading after so many forgeries and fallacies made it impossible to read further - or become, a - bing.
correcting those errors is the goal - to return to the path the religion of antiquity properly prescribes. for freed spirits admission to the Everlasting.
