Salvation is irrelevant in an evolutionary world. Jesus is an irrelevant fraud in an evolutionary world.

That's great, as long as evolution is false. The problem is that there is massive amounts of evidence that evolution is true, even though you've obviously ignored it.

So now your problem is that you've set up a situation where one must either reject the physical proof of evolution, or reject mere words printed in a Bible with nothing whatever to back them up.

Or, you can take the direction the Catholic church did. Accept both evolution and the Bible. Problem solved.

As for myself, I decided that your position was correct, that I had to accept one or the other. So I rejected God in favor of the physical evidence I see of evolution.

Your god is a fantasy god that is so weak that he can't exist alongside the facts of the natural world.

Don't reject God based on idiots who know neither God, nor the his works.

The Bible is amazingly logical, in context.

The problem is judgmental idiots read it in a vaccuum and with an agenda.

Go get a NIV Study Bible (inter-denominational and striped of agendas as much as humanly possible) that has all the good, thick, historical footnotes. Sold at Sam's.

Start with Matthew, who was an (what we call now) Orthodox Jew who converted, and who takes a very logial, step-by-step explaination of the whole thing.

Even if you choose to reject it as a religion, it is essential reading for anyone who lives in Western Civilization.
