god is a moron - genesis

[Wyrd of Gawd]

God is only as smart as the people creating him. In short, not very.

^This^

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.

The Genesis story is about the progenitor of the Jews.  It has nothing to do with the rest of humanity.

And you point is? Does that make it any better, since a percentage of christians tend to believe it to the letter?

There have been 5,478,750,000,000 days since the beginning. There are around 10E29 stars in the known universe. Now make one star a day. Hell, make one star a minute.

Billions of people believe all sorts of things that aren't real or true.

day 1 - Creates the heavens and the earth.

day 2 -  he couldn't see a god damned thing creates light and dark also created the moon. (didn't create a source of light till day 4, if god was so smart he would have created the sun)

day 3 - creates vegetation (again no light source and no insects and bees to pollinate said vegetation)

day 4 - finally creates the god damned sun 

If you want to leave some of god's fuck ups please do this will be a educational thing for theists on the website.

you and people like you should not be allow to speak publically without checking with someone first.

So let me get this straight. You personally believe that their is no way to have light with out the sun? Now think about that for a moment...

Light my well educated 'thinker' "is part of the electromagnetic spectrum, which ranges from radio waves to gamma rays. Electromagnetic radiation waves, as their names suggest are fluctuations of electric and magnetic fields, which can transport energy from one location to another. Visible light is not inherently different from the other parts of the electromagnetic spectrum with the exception that the human eye can detect visible waves."

All of that is independent of the sun sport.

Creates man
expects him to fuck other animals but forgets He made them of different species, and hence non-fuckable
Realizes the screwup but forgets how he created man from dust in the first place
Needs a sample of his previous creation in the form of a rib, before being able to make the next version.

I was about to write something similar. Even though god designed the human reproductive system, he doesn't understand that Adam might want to have sex with a female of his own species. When Adam asks for a mate, god brings all the animals to him to see if one suits him. WTF?

Maybe some sheep farmers know something that the rest of us don't....

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.

Really..?  So the light he made before all the known sources, was coming from nowhere and going nowhere at the speed of light..

Interesting ... NOT!
I think DRich's rubber band has snapped and he's just not aware of it yet..
