If I could change one thing about religion...
#11
RE: If I could change one thing about religion...
I will never understand why anyone considers the bible to be divinely inspired. How can people believe a book that's filled with talking animals? And why would anyone ever follow the god described therein? If you attributed many of the acts of God to the devil, I wonder if people would consider the devil so divine.

The Devil flooded the earth up to the mountains, and killed every living thing on earth except for Noah and his family, whom he deemed worthy, the others he considered to be abominations.

The Devil condoned the deaths of entire nations and stoning.

The devil destroyed Sodom and Gomorrah, and then turned Lot's wife to salt when she turned back.

The devil killed 70,000 people after David took a census of Israel.

Would they turn and worship the devil, or would they decry these acts as terrible?
