To those who believe Bible is not literal...

You know your arguments are pretty lame right?
People did 'non Christian' things becouse they thought it was what god commands them to do.
Let me ask you this then, What conclusion you would draw if you had accepted bible's words literally?
If they understood wrong they're still wrong. If I read out of context that the bible condones taking an eye for an eye, then I would be doing something against what Christ would have done. Do you understand?

Why do you think it would be illogical? We are not playing a game if you think there are rules. And you believe he is omnipotent right? He can do whatever he want.( And he Chose this one???!)
The premise of xtianity is the need for faith. If God provided solid proof there would be no need for faith. Get it?

Its perfectly logical to me.
lets say I am a boss,
I want my employes to produce pencils. But I am telling only to one of my employe: "make me something mightier than sword ". So they are producing Shotguns. Is it my fault or theirs???
The bible isn't so unclear.

Reason is something you are not familiar I believe...
Yet you seem incapable of demonstrating why.

(September 1, 2010 at 5:50 pm)annatar Wrote: Your conclusion: You are illogical. - You are not illogical, some of your points are.
After this discussion Im not even sure that you know what logic is..
Then try to demonstrate it.

You don't need a proof to refute something that is produced without proof.
- You don't need it because it's impossible. That's why you can't logically conclude anything.
its not impossible It's simple. Here, the simple and logical conclusion of this thread: Bible is not literal = Bullshit.
Are you saying that if the bible isn't literal than it's bullshit? Or that the bible is absolutely literal in your opinion? I see zero statements to support your assertion, so am forced to conclude nothing different to what I previously thought, just like any other reader.
