1. Why is it any truer than any other religion?
2. Which denomination is correct?
3. Which version of the bible is correct?
4. Who gets to speak with the voice of God, if man is too small to understand him?
5. Contradictions, contradictions.
6. Concept of heaven/hell is ridiculous.
7. Has fought against progress for too long.
8. Some of the most avid followers seem to have a problem with understanding their own set of rules (do not steal, give away your fortune, do not judge your fellow man etc.)
9. Some branches enhance problems with and lie about sex and sexuality.
10. Even the good the church does comes always with strings attached.

I would believe you if you either showed me the talking animal or substantial proof like this:

1. At this point i would remeber that jiddu krishnamurti said comparison is bad

2. I think i already responded to that earlier in the thread
3. Try see what all versions have in common. To me i'd say thats the only part that matters the rest is up to you
5. eg?
6. whats wrong with it being rediculous? doesnt make it any less true
8,9,10.as i said please look up joseph prince
so your willing to believe evidence but not search for it? if parrots were extinct but you heard they could talk but there was no science behind it, would you actually try do what she's done and find evidence of it being possible or just dismiss it while some other scientist does the grunt work? what i'm tring to say is that maybe snakes did talk but we've just not figured out how
