Intelligence is a Curse

[Ryft]

Young-earth creationism is unbiblical? To say that is to say that the Bible is unbiblical.

Saying that "the Bible is unbiblical" is as incoherent and meaningless as saying "logic is illogical" or "justice is unjust." The fact that you can type such a thing as "the Bible is unbiblical" with a straight face and think you have said something intelligible is, well, very troubling.

Yes, Aleialoura, young-earth creationism is unbiblical. That means the Bible does not teach it. This is not a difficult concept to grasp. Honestly.

You made reference to some of the more nutty branches of Christianity and called their beliefs "unbiblical."

Except for the fact that I did not. I called a singular belief of theirs unbiblical. That means one. Evidently the reading comprehension difficulty is yours.

It's okay that you don't get it.

Aleialoura, nobody gets self-contradicting statements. They are intrinsically meaningless; i.e., they carry their incomprehensibility in themselves.

I'll admit that I was ignorant of who exactly Numbers is. Forgive me.

Forgive you? You only embarrassed yourself—which thus far you seem to have a penchant for.

I assumed that since you were dropping his name ...

Yes, and these are some of the embarrassing things that baseless assumptions produce. I doubt that will stop you from using them, though.

Cited article 1: Michael Huemer, "Scary Bible Quotes."

Cited article 2: Mike Daniels, "Christian parents biblically beat child to death for mispronouncing word," Secular News Daily (2010, February 16).

Which of these two articles support your claim? Daniels reports a horrifying case of child abuse by fundamentalist parents and an author who may have influenced them. And Huemer simply lists "scary" Bible quotes. How does either of these support your claim that "the reason Christians selectively disregard Deuteronomy and Leviticus is because it's no longer a part of our culture" (Msg. 24, para. 3)?

Can anyone else determine how this supports Aleialoura's claim? Feel free to explain how.

The fact that I had to spell that out for you really slowly shows me that your reading comprehension skills are low, and you possibly shouldn't worry about my critical thinking skills.

What you spelled out was abundantly clear. What it does not do, unfortunately, is support your claim that "the reason Christians selectively disregard Deuteronomy and Leviticus is because it's no longer a part of our culture."
