Why do so many of you quote the bible and do nothing what says in it

RE: Why do so many of you quote the bible and do nothing what says in it
One who truely learns Scripture, will embody it. One who loves the Lord will preach that love. But the diletante, the one who learns a bit of this and a bit of that, but grasps little, who then does the equivilant of standing on a street corner and calling the rest of the world "Fools!", is not a true student of Scripture. (Matthew 5:22 is relevant to you here).

The problem with the above claim - is that the word "Scripture" is a word that simply means "religious writings". THere are such writings from hundreds of religions - and even the xtian religions do agree on what the words actually are - or what they mean.

The problem with scripture is that there remains NO way to embody the CONTRADICTING and often vile and inhuman things in it - for a truly thinking person. One can usually contradict anything claimed by someone quoting the bible - with another quote from the bible - as an example.

The idea that you need an education fails to note that STUDIES by Xtian groups have shown that the people who actually know most about religions are those who DO NOT BELIEVE IT>
