God said so.

...do as he says, not as he does?

(The stuff he says isn't all that advisable)

In this case it is.

Directly or indirectly or some one wrote it in a book...?

Depending on perspective both.

So at the risk of sounding arrogant, I'm declaring myself the victor. The voting was unanimous, I just finished counting my votes and it is an astonishing 1 to 0 landslide in my favour. Parade tomorrow at 11.

To have the beginning and end of all things, to tell you do "X" is pretty much trumps everything else.

It begs the question; what would god have to tell you to do before you said no?

Heh, other than half the shit in the bible?

It saddens me that someone is willing to surrender so completely their own judgement and take on faith that anyone, god or otherwise, must automatically be right. They are right because they say they are right. And because they are very powerful, you say they are right because otherwise they will crush you. Classic tyrant/abusive relationship.

People like drich, imho correct me if I'm wrong dritch, would easily Abraham his kid if he believed jesus, god or h. ghost told him to.

That is what worries me, since how can you distinguish the voice of "god" in your head from mental illness?

That the bible is an accurate telling of his actions and character.

And yes.. it really is.. because gods followers are packs of vicious dogs waiting for a signal to kill.
