Having said that, I'd like to state for the record (seriously and with not a trace of snark) that I love Genesis. Yeah, it's a strange and goofy-as-hell saga, but I think it's fun and I've always enjoyed reading it. I'm willing to cut ancient authors considerable slack when it comes to origin stories. They didn't know what they didn't know. Big deal.
The only people who can dim my enjoyment of that book are the contemporary fuckwits who think they're reading history or the "inspired" word of their god and insist I should read it that way too. Those people could suck the fun out of a New Year's celebration at the Playboy mansion.

Does that make it any better, since a percentage of christians tend to believe it to the letter? ![[Image: Bumper+Sticker+-+Asheville+-+Praise+Dog3.JPG]](https://images.weserv.nl/?url=1.bp.blogspot.com%2F-d-3rfdI7nG0%2FTerwtFyFXoI%2FAAAAAAAACak%2F7kFSmHeVrng%2Fs320%2FBumper%2BSticker%2B-%2BAsheville%2B-%2BPraise%2BDog3.JPG)

You make people miserable and there's nothing they can do about it, just like god.

I haven't read enough holy books to know how stupid Yahweh is by God standards. I find it hard to believe there could be one out there much more dense.
