Keeping it shorter today. Plus talking to SW is like talking to a mindless drone, so I'm going to talk at him this time.

Waldorf, how is your Bible true simply because it says that it is? The Book of Mormon says the same thing, so is it true? Was L. Ron Hubbard right, when he said the info in his SCI-Fi books was actually true?
On top of all that, since the Bible has claimed to be true, it has the burden of proof placed on it. Since then, only a handful of events have been shown to be true. A few pieces of corn does not make a piece of shit Shepherd Pie.
Since science has demonstrated evolution to be real, it kicks a young earth in the ass. Not only that, but once abiogenesis was shown to be real, we know that it probably happened, even if we don't know how. The Bible's creation story falls flat on its ass, and this isn't because of some agenda that scientists have against God; it's simply how reality looks. I hate to be the bearer of bad news, but you have some fiction tossed into that Bible of yours. This being said, we now have a piece of work on par with The Lord of the Rings.
I'll tell you what though. Coming to this conclusion was completely unnecessary. If the Bible is still claimed as a work of history, the wouldn't autobiographies as well? With that in mind, should we take what these autobiographers say at face value? I mean, hell, they fucking lie about the events in their life sometimes.
SW, this is what gives us the right to treat the Bible like a work of fiction...you can't prove it's 100%, so everything in it is up for debate. With the whole Bible being a questionable piece of work, we should never take it at face value. The fact that you do, SW, speaks volumes of your true character, and this is not a compliment.
Now, to wrap this all up, do you have any demonstrable evidence for your God, SW? Oh, the evidence is all your own? I have to experience God to know him? I need faith, and that's all the evidence I need?
No, fuck that. Religion is simply Santa Claus for adults. We need to put our imaginations to better use than dreaming up Gods and telling people that they exist simply...because...they exist.
