What would it take?

[Edwardo Piet]

What would it take for you to finally admit that Christ is not returning and xtianity is false?

I don't think there's anything that could change their mind on that one besides losing their faith altogether.

After all, Jesus was crucified TWICE for their sins.  Sez so in the Holy Bible, so it's gotta be true !!

I mean DUHHHHHHHH!

Hang on a second! Are we being sarcastic?

Are you telling me that you're trying to say that religious people are gullible and will believe silly shit just because it's written down in an old dusty book full of garbled shite?

When I was a kid I never even realized that anyone actually believed in the Bible for realsies until I became an adult and I was like "Wtf?"I assumed they were just fables.

Aseop's fables has better morals in it than the Bible anyway. And they're more coherently written. And I'll take country mouse and field mouse over a talking snake any day.

In the original tale, a proud town mouse visits his cousin in the country. The country mouse offers the city mouse a meal of simple country cuisine, at which the visitor scoffs and invites the country mouse back to the city for a taste of the "fine life" and the two cousins dine like emperors. But their rich and delicious metropolitan feast is interrupted by a couple of dogs which force the rodent cousins to abandon their meal and scurry to safety. After this, the country mouse decides to return home, preferring security to opulence or, as the 13th-century preacher Odo of Cheriton phrased it, "I'd rather gnaw a bean than be gnawed by continual fear".

The story was widespread in Classical times and there is an early Greek version by Babrius (Fable 108). Horace included it as part of one of his satires (II.6), ending on this story in a poem comparing town living unfavorable to life in the country. Marcus Aurelius alludes to it in his Meditations, Book 11.22; "Think of the country mouse and of the town mouse, and of the alarm and trepidation of the town mouse"

Stories like this are more coherent, concise, better written and have an actual clear point to it, with a proper moral, more than anything in the entire stupid fucking Bible.
