Zone1 When Adam blamed Eve and Eve blamed the serpent (Satan)... interesting how God dealt with that

[Libby von H]

Failure to take accountability. Wow. Really rich coming from folks who can clear their conscience of any immoral act by simply asking their imaginary friend for forgiveness.

YOu mistate 3 things and I will leave it at that.

1)Immorality has nothing to do with imaginary or not imaginary,IF I aim a banana at you thinking it is a gun and hoping to kill you, that is wrong.Despite your constant claim it isn't,normal people do not take your side.
2) You could not be arguing that we should not take accountability so that just makes you look stupid or dishonest, your pick
3) Again, you think what you call moral must be moral but even if that were true. you don't own my conscience.I know that is your aim in life.

In short, If they thought it was wrong,it was wrong. If they thought they should ask for forgiveness,they should ask for forgiveness.

You are a cipher and you know you are

You have a hard eye, Arlette. Judge how you want to be judged.

My bad. I took that "confront reality" next to your avatar too literally.

Seems to me God is saying he will use it all to bring about good from bad. Order from chaos.

God violates the 3rd Law of Thermodynamics? ... that would be a miracle ...

3rd law? Or 2nd law? Either way, I don't believe he does.

All I get from the story is that snakes used to walk.

Hey, Baffoon-glow!

You finally said something interesting. I also wondered about that. But again, the Bible is not all absolutely literal. Ther is the literal, the allegorical and... the other 2 things escape me

It's because I confront reality that I can't take the easy way of dismissing everything I find uncomfortable. I actually have to think about all sides of an issue and test it.

You misread that in the same way you ascribe to God

I tend to not want to read things that begin in such a way. Some people are here at the forum primarily to correct others, seemingly thinking they themselves are already fully corrected, thank you..

I don't really like interacting with such... not saying you are doing that, but it doesn't look good. Then there's the fact that I am worn out interacting with those obstinate creatures known as anti-Catholic protestants

Then the book should have came with a warning

So you believe that things happened exactly like you read it in Genesis?

Hey man, show some respect. You're talking about the holey bible!

 

[Moonglow]

More holey than righteous, like my undies.

Why?

... the other 2 things are the fantasy and the superstitious.

For example, yes.

Why?

Why not, my child?

You tell me. I'm sure there are some real nice religious people out there, but you slowing us down. We are trying to move forward, progress, and you're in the fucking way.

Do any of them have a sense of humour, understand sarcasm, and can express themselves without profanity where it isn't needed?

You just fail to appreciate my irreverent sense of humor.

Seeing everything in black & white is a trait that you seem to share with Theists.

You never explained to me why you think religion should be exempt from ridicule. Please do so.
