So can we make a deal now?
The deal is this: I'd be very interested in learning more about the bible and how you interpret it. So long as you don't CLAIM that it is truth of the supernatural (meaning something that hasn't evolved or developed from natural laws). If you do claim this, you can still teach it your way but I should have every right to correct you and you should accept my correction when I remind you that you are not supposed to teach scripture as truth of the supernatural.
Deal?
You think that if Daystar quotes from the Bible he really has a wide knowledge of what is written in the Book of books.
Even if he has that knowledge most religious people will keep quoting from it as if it where written just yesterday in the Newsweek.
Watch the tv channel of Pat Robertson and you'll see high trained preachers speaking before an immense audience and supporting their arguments whith quotation from the Bible which they hold in front of them as if what Ezekiel (which by the way is a contorted name of the original Yeheskel) said or king David did or of God himself said onto X and Y.
At the end as an atheist you will learn nothing.
If the matter is really interesting you, then seek on Google for historic literature on the Bible.
