What is this trying to tell us? Why shouldn't she have eaten out of the tree? Because god said so? god doesn't seem to provide any explanation as to why she shouldn't, other than threatening her with death. God sounds like a terrorist; "do what I say or you will die." This preaches unquestioning obedience. What do you think?
Funny thread from an atheist. You are pretending like you care if god (that you don't believe in) is a terrorist? All the christians are gonna come running now, and say something sappy like, "god only hurts us because he loves us so much!" or something silly like that. Funny EXE
You are right, Bible doesn't explain much. It's like a legal document, it just says what you should do, and often what the consequences will be if you don't, without explanations. It's not designed to be comprehensive and complete.
Alright you got me I'm going to be making more such threads, hopefully if people read what's in the bible for themselves they'll stop calling themselves christians.
Why does god find blood sacrifices and killing animals so pleasing? How would he ask a father to kill his son with a knife to prove his love? Why would he send his own son to be tortured and killed as if the blood sacrifice of jeeezus is all that could cool his deep anger against mankind? Why is he planning on burning us in hell for all of eternity? Why does he turn people into salt? Yes, you guessed it! because god is love!! Hal ley lu yah Brother! Of course, that doesn't sound craazy at all...
And nobody questions the talking snake..... By the way... if the snakes punishment was to crawl on his belly for all his days, What did snakes do before this incident? Fly? Just another example of the bible making about as much sense as wet fart.
With the kind of dirty mind I posses, it just passed my mind that thee would be no mankind if the Adam-Eve family did not indulge in incest.
I had half a mind to add that in the OP, and the fact that they somehow become "aware" by eating a fruit, and were ashamed of being naked
It is a metaphor. Ripped from countless other tribal religions the Hebrews conquered or escaped from. Adam can be rougly translated to mean first blood or red clay, a symbol for flesh, and Eve is really Chayia meaning life force or living essence. So you have this concept of matter and conciousness debating about whether to eat of this mystical tree and realize that they where seperate from each other, thats what the whole clothing themselves crap is about. They saw that one was male and one was female IE that spirit and flesh where seperate and together they get thrown out of paradise (some philosophical state of perfection that imho never existed in any real way) and are born into the world of suffering and death, good ol blue earth. The rest of it really starts to digress from the original metaphor of course. Cain and Abel seem to be about the age old question of is it better to be a hunter/taker or farmer/preserver and of course peace god loves the farmer but doesn't stop hunter Cain from bashing his head in Interesting to note that the children of Cain the Cainanites are pillaged by the hebrews and a bit of their culture stolen/assimilated such as the word El for god which is really a word used by the Cainanites to describe the father of Ba'al. Ba'al is the golden calf and son of the god El who is a bull. Some pretty basic ideas about male prowess and a n all father followed up by his golden/solar/sacrificed son who just wants us all to get along. In short its convoluted BS but like any metaphor it has a point lost in it somewhere.
Dont worry, there's plenty time to write the bible again for brainwashed by parents generation next))) Here is another one.....where was the God at dinosaur times ? Not born yet ?
lol me to. It would be terrifying if that guy thought he was making sense. Though you never can tell with this religious lot.
<sarcasm>Anything is possible with god! If christians can explain it with common sense, that is because it is gods truth! If christians cannot explain it and it makes absolutely NO sense at all, it is simply because we are so dumb and god is so smart! Hal-uh-lu-ya brothers and sisters!! Welcome to the church of the brainwashed zombies. god is good, god is great. Praised be!<sarcasm>
lol)))))) where do you get this stuff I think he is serious...... wowwwwieeee no comments, he probably missed the school.
No. If you look through some of the "hate mail" the site has received, you'll realize the site is a parody. I'm sure there are some psychos out there who really believe all that crap, though.
No, but there are sites that look very similar to that one and are completely serious. Christian Answers comes to mind, as well as Answers in Genesis.
