So, are you saying that because I don't believe after I've read the bible that I'm incapable of comprehending it?? I would expect no less from most christians. They usually act like I'm inferior to their knowledge when I question their faith. Whatever. I'm not the one who believes in some all-powerful trinity who was an asshole then decided to try and make nice with humans by killing his own son.
I really don't need to qualify the statement "I find the whole thing silly!" because I've been through the christian experience. While I never believed, my parents and brother and sister are hardcore chrisitans. I've seen it all, heard it all, read it all. My personal belief is that it is a silly book that was more than likely embellished throughout the years of man writing it. Just as most legends are embellished through the years of people repeating them. The story of the bible is no different.
The one thing I don't understand is if god is real, then why the need for all the different religions and interpretations?? The bible was inspired by god correct?? What about the book of mormon?? What about the quoran (sp?)? I would take a wild guess and say that god doesn't really have a religion. Yet his followers prove once again that they don't have a clue. Blind faith can only take you so far.
