Biblical Prayer Contradictions

[Salacious B. Crumb]

And that's exactly how I feel about the bible.

That's your choice, just as the Koran isn't my choice. However you do not see me spending an enormous amount of time trying to run it in the ground, I usually only speak against it when asked or the subject comes up and that is not often. I would rather spend my time studying what I know to be true and I know it's true through God's revelation to me. I do not run down your unbelief in my God, I do defend what I believe and know to be the truth when it is attacked.

You don't run the koran into the ground, because you would be a hypocrite, knowing that there are bad things in the koran, as there are bad things in the bible. What you 'know' to be true, isn't actually knowing, it's a belief a system. Muslims claim to 'know' that the koran is true too, evidently, both of us would disagree with that. Probably, because we weren't raised in that faith, and one of us is in a different faith, so of course you're not going to believe it. There have been thousands and thousands of religions on this earth, because... they are made up by human beings! God's will, wouldn't have tons of religions before the 'true one', and then have this so-called true religion, established 2,000 years ago, and then have more religions that follow christianity. So many of these religions were made up in a time of great ignorance; people were exceedingly superstitious, even more so than today. They were willing to make up and believe anything, they barely knew anything about science, and that is apparent, because the Adam and Eve story contradicts evolution. Humans didn't pop into existence a few thousand years ago, there's extensive evidence that we've evolved over time. If they knew this, they'd probably not write it down. However, they didn't know this, because this is a relatively recent discovery, compared to how long this species has been on earth.

And, spending your time studying on what you 'know' is true, isn't smart. It's good to actually study other religions, why they believe them, and how these other religions plagiarized material from other religions. It's also good to study science, and take an interest in factual information. That's the problem with people that are religious, they're close-minded, because they 'know' this book to be true, and ignore everything else. They can't look at their religion objectively, they only know how to defend it.
