But it wouldn't be your fault either.
If "I" do something anti Christ then "I'm" doing something anti Christ. Who's fault is it?

then why so many people believed that bible is literal?
Yes bible is not unclear if you take it literal. But your explainations to the verses of bible.....
Lets just say you're really imaginative...
People get things wrong. Did you notice that? The bible is quite clear, no imagination required. Literalism = ignorance k.

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.
Im saying that your excuses about bible being illiteral is bullshit. Bible itself is also bullshit. bible has no secret divine meaning other than its obvious meanings.
No secret no. No literal bollocks either. Literalism is intellectually indefensible, hence why I can't support it. Just one point to back up your assertion would be good.

Actually you seem incapable of noticing them. My conclusion is created under the facts that I clearly mentioned several times.
But I know its a waste of time. You wont see the truth Even if its as clear as a bell..
I am actually waiting the moment that you will say "your posts are not literal.."
I've explained the huge illogicality of your points, and you have no argument. This leads me to conclude that your points are invalid, unless you can make one stick. Face the truth anna and don't stay things you can't support with reasoon.

oh I missed this one.. You were having problems with recognizing illogicality. That statement pretty much is the definition of illogicality..
How so anna? Yet again a baseless assertion.
