Sure, it could happen. NOT.

This is some god you have, Corky.

belittling one's position, even if you're right, accomplishes nothing. do you wish to change someone's view, or just to mock them in order to feel superior?


you are better than this. are you?

I think the bible belittles people in general when it makes up stories that are patently BS. Think about it. Can you see some kind of thinking compassionate being killing most of the animals on the planet to get at a bunch of bad humans? It rankles me to the core that such BS would be spread out as if it were coming from a god. Those are just a few of the most obvious ones.

How can otherwise intelligent people fall for such crap? What happened to their own reasoning power that they would fall for such obvious fantasy tales hook line and sinker?

Do YOU actually believe these fairy tales? Why would a real god base a religion on such clear lies? The answer is, it would not, not now and not ever. Then the stock answer from the deluded billions is 'oh so now you know the mind of GOD?'.

Of course I don't know the mind of a real god but it would be safe to say the one in the bible is not one.

You give up the right to even question such things when you accept the faith as your religion. Why? Why accept things that are totally false?

But a GOD turned her into a pillar of salt. What, you don't believe? You are damned in hell forever and you will burn all over your whole body forever and ever. What Bullcrap.

For me, Noah's Ark is king. Just the thought of a Penguin waddling to Iraq from Antarctica to get on a boat for a year cracks me up.

a whole city going gay!!!!! and then taking up raping as a side interest and why didnt anybody want to rape the non gay dude that lived in the town? then god kills the town for................being gay, rather than the raping!!!! how does an entire town go gay and get into rape?!?!? obviously the bible skips that important bit and mumbles something about sin.

the penguin obviously hitched a lift on the back of a walrus doofus!!!!

The Sodom and Gomorrah tale ends with Lots' daughters plying their father with booze before sleeping with him. Gen.19.32. 'Incestual date rape!'

Every debate about homosexuality in the church has zealots reaching for this same passage as proof that homosexuality is wrong - 'The bible says so' - but no one ever mentions the bit about having it away with your daughters!

But today in prison there are many people who take up both raping and being 'gay'. That is not only plausible, but still happens. Whereas you will never see a penguin ride a walrus more than a few feet without falling off. 😀

It's not absurd that Mary would say that "god" made her preggers. It's weird that that the male-centric population of the time would believe her and put it into the bible 😀

Most of them didn't mention it. Probably too unbelieveable. Being raised from the dead was probably more believeable than a virgin birth.

Is there not enough other threads for you?

I was really enjoying this one.

BTW johnlongwoody, Potato Salad was always going to be one of the first to get it.

For me JC being "the son of 'God' "is the most bizarre. Not the story so much but that so many Christians would believe it and that nearly all Christians believe it to be quite a plausible story.
Says a lot about the human condition 😞

I really should eat more potato salad.

My doctor says I could do with losing about 20 pounds.
What's that? About 8 kilos?

So many absurd stories to choose from. Samson, the mass murderer, who is a biblical hero. Job, tortured by god just to prove a point. Noah and the incredible walk by animals and the like. Ezekiel and the spaceship where god travels. First thing tomorrow I am going to get some potato salad (German style) and think about this

Why was Sodom destroyed?

As I live, saith the Lord God, Sodom thy sister hath not done, she nor her daughters, as thou hast done, thou and thy daughters. Behold, this was the iniquity of thy sister Sodom, pride, fulness of bread, and abundance of idleness was in her and in her daughters, neither did she strengthen the hand of the poor and needy. And they were haughty, and committed abomination before me: therefore I took them away as I saw good. (Ezekiel 16:48-50 KJV)

As I live," declares the Lord God, "Sodom, your sister and her daughters have not done as you and your daughters have done. Behold, this was the guilt of your sister Sodom: she and her daughters had arrogance, abundant food and careless ease, but she did not help the poor and needy. Thus they were haughty and committed abominations before Me. Therefore I removed them when I saw it. (Ezekiel 16:48-50 NASB)

The reasons for Sodom's demise are in the bible
