    Do you realize that there has been a great wealth of ethical discussion in the 1700 years since the Bible was compiled?

    And you’re seriously going to tell me that the BIBLE, which condones genocide, slavery, the murder of homosexuals, etc, is more moral or ethical than ANYTHING that has been compiled in that time? Half of the Bible was written by litteral genocidal warmongers.

    You could put two random children’s books together, and it would be a far superior compilation of morals than the Bible.

        The canonical gospels, where thought crime is first introduced into the religion? Where the founder of the religion declares that everyone who doesn’t agree with him is doomed to eternal torture? Are you sure that’s an argument you want to make?

            I’ve read them, and I used to preach from them. When you read them critically rather than reverentially, Jesus was a dick.

            Would you like to see some examples?
