Do you believe the bible?

No. And I'm glad I don't. The OT routinely describes utterly monstrous behaviour on the part of God and His chosen with approval. I wouldn't sleep at night if I thought that eternal redemption might lie at the whim of such a vile being.

Further, numerous fields of independent knowledge falsify Genesis as a literal tale of origins. Genetics, astronomy, cosmology, biology, paleontology, atomic physics, geology would all have to be false for Genesis to be literally true. Yet those sciences have made startling and correct predictions about the nature of the universe. For example the PC you are currently reading this on, and the internet that connects you to my meanderings is also based on the same physical models that tell us that the universe is billions of years old. Science cannot tell us about the existence or non-existence of deities in general, but it certainly can falsify specific religious claims. By those standards Genesis is false.

To: Thatcherite

“Aren't the righteous charming individuals? Taking delight in the fate of those who don't share their beliefs. Do you really think that accepting the copious physical evidence for evolution is enough of a sin to warrant eternal punishment (or the denial of eternal reward)?”

Then I have not condemned you, you have condemned yourself. I have stated to you what you believe and that is that the bible is false that there is no God so the only thing left is the grave and decade.

I have stated what I believe to be as a fact and you have presented what you believe is a fact. And my answer is one day we will see.

And until then let the Alpha apes rape and pillage, let apekind party today for tomorrow we die, there is no God so it does not matter. Lets kill our fetuses let devise in our hearts what we believe to be true and let dogs take the hind quarter

Have a nice eternity!
