Yeah, I believe that everyone has a right to believe in what they want to but, the bible also tells one how to buy and sell slaves, what to do if they commit a crime (Deuteronomy 23:15-16) , the degree to which they can be beaten (Exodus 21:20-21), and laws concerning sexual activity with female slaves (Leviticus 19:20-22). Keep in mind that this is all stuff from the old testament, but none-the-less it is still The Bible.
So whenever i hear someone say "becuase it said so"(regardless of what it pertains too) I pretty much just tune them out, unless if course there is solid evidence. People have to think for themselves and not just buy into every little peace of crap that is thrown out to them. All in all believe what you want just don't force it upon me.
