Hopefully one day, all religious books will be regarded as just that, ancient literature and and a way to get insight into the minds of the people at that time, how they thought, felt and saw the world.
Funny thing that. Of all the current news stories from that part of the world considered to be the cradle of the monotheistic faith, I see that nothing has changed in their thinking in over 2,000 years. Still brutal, violent, intolerant, murderous, ignorant...
There is an ALLLL-knowing, ALLLL-powerful, inVISible being who is everywhere, who created the WHOLE universe, who lives in another dimension called heaven, who is perfect in every way, who was never born and will never die, and who watches you every minute of every day (even when you're squeezing one out on the toilet). There are also unicorns, leprechauns, Santa Claus, an Easter Bunny, and a giant purple people eater.
JUST BELIEVE IT!
