I’ve attended Sunday School my whole life and I’ve never seen people using the time to draw strange conclusions from it.
Where do you think 10,000 flavors of Protestantism came from?
Every group of adults I've ever heard talk about the Bible, or talk about what they've studied in the Bible, comes up with different lame-ass theories.
These are the same people who wrote stupid book reports in high school and even more pathetic papers if they made it to college. Why they would be expected to generate a comprehensive and consistent theology for themselves through reading the Holy Bible, with all its seeming contradictions and mysteries, and divorced from thousands of years of Tradition, is beyond me. (And I'm talking about all Christians here, plus non-Christians reading the Bible.)
The Devil can quote Scripture for his purpose, but get a bunch of people together and they'll come up with something more ridiculous than Satan's ever thought of.
Of course I'm in favor of reading the Bible, but if it's not put in the context of one's theological framework it would take the reader in any direction.
