If I could change one thing about religion...
#24
RE: If I could change one thing about religion...
Someone on the forum (I won't say who) thinks virtually the entire OT is metaphorical, yet the NT is literally true.

(Obviously there's a problem with the second bit due to contradictory accounts.)

Although this makes no sense to me, I like it as an approach. It's an inventive way of dismissing all links to the atrocious text. If this message was propagated, it would improve the religion in my opinion. Taking the NT literally is obviously a contradictory approach, but since it's the less harmful of the two, it's a good compromise.
Feel free to send me a private message.
Please visit my website here! It's got lots of information about atheism/theism and support for new atheists.
