My husband has a good point he makes all the time. The bible is collected supposedly by a bunch of people under the spirit of God. The Roman Catholic church took out a lot of information. How can we believe that the bible is real or accurate?
I'm assuming you have read the bible. Do you find the stories to be rational and logical?
Well it is real in the sense of the word, it does exist, but this does not mean the contents have to be historically accurate.
People get sick from bacteria, viruses, genetic traits, free-radicals, and other scientifically testable means. No one has got sick from an "act of god". The thought of god controls everything is sad to me, we are not controlled or judged by anyone but ourselves, and you should live your life to please yourself, and not a god that does not exist(my opinion). God did nothing to her, it is just life. We get sick and we die.
Sinful.... here is how I base how I act and what I do. I live to be as happy as I can possible be and I will strive to be happy as long as I do not interfere with another humans ability to pursue the same thing. I.E I wont steal.. also I won't persecute a homosexual, if it makes them happy then so be it, they are not interfering with my ability to be happy. Something to ponder I suppose.
