He’ll be back.
All dressed up and no place to go.
“He’ll be back.”
... if he was ever there.
I doubt that. I was where he was. Its a one way trip to logic and understanding.
Once person starts asking honest questions about ancient mythology, and analyzes bible stories passed on from generation to generation, an honest, thinking person realizes how silly these stories are. Stories about talking serpents, talking donkeys, burning bushes, people swallowed by fish and spit back out alive, people turned into pillars of salt, etc. really are... Well, that person begins to look at the bible the same way that thinking Christians now look at the Koran.... its just silly mythology.
Just looking at the plagiarism in the story of a zookeeper boat story and the Epic of Gilgamesh and one realizes that ancient scriptures are just stories fabricated to help ancient man deal with things like cataclysmic events such as earthquakes and volcanic activity. Thanks to scientific inquiry, we now know there's no angry god in trying to destroy some disobedient village, its just a natural geological phenomenon.
While some people will continue to cling to ancient stories about magical horses and chariots flying up into heaven (Muhammad and Ezekial) the rest of Mankind will be accepting those as just silly myths... and they won't be going back to believing in mythology.
