Get back on topic please.
Well I guess we have been off topic for the past twenty pages or so...

Quote from Javelin
No. the concept is good, but not all things are bad as would they appear in the bible.


Quote from Javelin
Psychics. Their dissed in the bible, but think about all the real psychics, not the fucking fake ones, and they've helped many people and police.
During the time the bible was written, pschics were very different.

unimportant info :My dad and I were talking about the universe (a few months ago) and he told me about how the universe had no beginning or end, then said to me that the bible was the worst thing for mankind. He's an atheist. I'm not suprised, he is pretty smart. And probably the only reason why I'm not an athesit to, is because my parents are divourced.


What the fuck did you say in the first quote?
Are you saying everything isn't as bad as it appears to be in the Bible? I don't see where that is relevant but okay.

Your reasoning about physics and the "real ones" and "fake ones" makes no sense at all... None whatsoever.
When you say the universe has no beginning or no end, are you relating to the Big Bang theory in saying that the universe has been here forever and will be here forever? Or are you stating how it is infinite and we couldn't circle the universe like we could the earth. Regardless I don't see how this is relevant either.

Your dad said the Bible is the worst thing that has ever happened to mankind, why?
I'm sorry but your dad sounds like one of the retarded Atheists who only say they're Atheists because they don't know shit about anything.
1- We learn about the Universe being infinite in mass in what second or third grade, whenever we learn about the solar system.
2- Religion is the worst thing to ever happen to this world, not the Bible. What about the Quran? Why isn't that the worst thing that has ever happened to man-kind?

Don't pick and choose to believe in something or not to believe in something because of your parents. Divorce is very common.
Suck it up and deal with it.

He said Psychics. Not physics.

and i believe he was referring to the theory of the contract and expand, big bangs over and over again. the universe collapses on itself via gravity over shittons of years, then bangs out, as the initial inertia from the bang is overcome by gravity, the universe slowly collapses again (very slowly, since gravity effect is ridiculously small over ridiculously long ranges) and then bangs out again. Alot of people don't understand that entropy is happening slowly in this theoretical cycle, and everything will one day run out of energy, banging smaller and smaller, until it just dies out. and there are other types of entropy in the universe predicted to happen before the next contraction.

My mistake.
Psychics? Really?
Okay sure they were "dissed" in the Bible. but I still have the same argument here as I have had before.
The people that wrote the Bible were the people who would have believed that the Earth was flat and you could fall off of the edge if you sailed too far out.
Anyone that was psychic was either seen as a prophet or stoned to death for witchcraft...

Psychics don't exist, and no authority ever believed the Earth was flat.

The point was that during the time when the Bible was written, the general population was not that smart.

There is no general plot to the Bible, so this post doesn't make any sense.
It isn't Harry Potter.

You're avoiding the point. With your technique of "Oh, I like this, so I'll be this way. Oh, I don't like that, I'll ignore that" you can completely change what a book is about.
Besides, the bible does have a shitty plot.

Quote from Arch-Angel
It sounds like you think he is against you having people that you look up to? I'm not sure if this is just my misunderstanding. It is against the worship of idols, such as the Buddha statues.

I honestly think you're mentally handicapped. Buddhism is not a religion, and Buddha statues are treated the same way, well, a statue of Abraham Lincoln is. Let me say that again. Buddhism is NOT a religion and the Buddha is in NO WAY SHAPE OR FORM a deity of any kind.

But yes, "Thou shalt not covet" is the dumbest shit ever. Coveting represents what the market and self-improvement is based on. I understand "thou shalt not commit adultery", but outlawing coveting is ridiculous. Coveting is human nature.

BTW, "Thou shalt not kill" was actually intended so that people within their own clans wouldn't kill each other. It has nothing to do with humanity in general. God was perfectly fine with people killing each other, as long as they weren't part of the same clan. So God being "sad" about a soldier killing an enemy is false. In fact, God himself ordered the rape and pillaging of dozens of towns simply for worshipping other deities that the townspeople had no idea that were pagan.
