The creation story in its 'correct order'? You are aware that there are two contradictory creation stories two pages apart in the Bible, yes?

 Am I aware now that's funny, of coarse I'm not aware of two different creation stories. Genesis 2 is giving more information about Genesis 1. You must believe that Christians are really stupid in that you believe we can't see two different stories. Well it is not the Christians who are stupid, we reason rather well.

In Leviticus 14 God teaches Moses how to cure skin diseases:

14 And the Lord spake unto Moses, saying,
2 This shall be the law of the leper in the day of his cleansing: He shall be brought unto the priest:
3 And the priest shall go forth out of the camp; and the priest shall look, and, behold, if the plague of leprosy be healed in the leper;
4 Then shall the priest command to take for him that is to be cleansed two birds alive and clean, and cedar wood, and scarlet, and hyssop:
5 And the priest shall command that one of the birds be killed in an earthen vessel over running water:
6 As for the living bird, he shall take it, and the cedar wood, and the scarlet, and the hyssop, and shall dip them and the living bird in the blood of the bird that was killed over the running water:
7 And he shall sprinkle upon him that is to be cleansed from the leprosy seven times, and shall pronounce him clean, and shall let the living bird loose into the open field.

So, cheap magic tricks with no insight into microbiology. No advice about hand washing or boiling water before drinking it. Just more innocent animals sacrificed to a deity that savored the smell of burning flesh. The god of Moses only knew what "Moses" knew.

 The leper is already healed before the cleansing ceremony, your reading skills lack much and your desire should be to improve them.

Anyone who can condemn people who want to do something for another and let that other know they care by telling them then there is little to say for that person other than they are most selfish.

I agree with you for once GC. Maybe I have misjudged you.

I shall pray to Satan, the god of critical thinking skills to give you reason to question your faith.

Want me to upload a video of me doing it?

I would rather not see you destroy your life in such a manner. It want do any good because Satan has no power over me, I can't say the same for you  though.

God loves those who believe and those who do not and the same goes for me, you have no choice in this matter. That puts the matter of total free will to rest.
