A book that describes a flood that never happened, with rains falling at the rate of 30 feet per hour -- which would have fucking demolished Noah's homemade wooden boat and killed everyone on board long before the end of the first day.
A book that describes some miracle-working preacher so awesome that he attracted massive crowds in Jerusalem -- but neither the Roman occupiers nor the local Jewish community nor any historians in the area wrote anything about him, and he only showed up in Christian writings several generations later, far away from where the Gospel events supposedly happened.
A book that describes a dragon so large that it can sweep one-third of the stars out of the sky and send them plummeting to earth. A dragon, FFS! A dragon that the Hubble Space Telescope has yet to spot, despite scanning the skies for 28 years and seeing galaxies 12 billion light-years away in the famous Hubble Deep Field images recorded in late 1995.
No, CDF, all you have there is a work of fiction that you were foolish enough to use as a cornerstone of your life. Grow up.

Or, at least pick a better work of fiction to base your life on. I can give copious recommendations.

Oh, it's a lot worse. Gen 1 and 2 can't agree with each other and both are scientific baloney. Nonetheless CDF47 will tapdance and cherry pick his way through that scientific and practical minefield by means of cherry-picking and special pleading. He won't even blink as he tells outright fibs.

The Bible is true. The dragon is just a mere symbol of the devil and the angels he brought with him are the ones swept by his tail. Also, many religions have a flood story. There was an ancient flood.
Jesus was wrote about by great historians. He did preach publicly in front of many eye witnesses that took the experience to the grave.

Why twist your scrotum interpreting a day as an "age"...as if magic book cant say what it means and mean what it says....when that won;t rescue genesis anyway...?
All you;re telling us is that it;s not only wrong, it;s wrong and poorly written. God screw the pooch there too..like he did with intelligent design?
I am the Infantry. I am my country’s strength in war, her deterrent in peace. I am the heart of the fight… wherever, whenever. I carry America’s faith and honor against her enemies.

In the race for victory, I am swift, determined, and courageous, armed with a fierce will to win. Never will I fail my country’s trust.

Because it does make sense. God transcends time. As a 24 hour day was going by for him, eons were going by inside this universe.
