Is it not the blue print for divorce and slavery and abuse that is also promoted in the bible (both old and new testaments).
Why is it that the church espouses that one must rely on god but uses to the full EVERY Scientific discovery to keep itself secure?
Why do I think you are not being genuine with us Adam??
Well, we just met so I understand your skepticism. As me anything you want except my phone number or social security number and I'll answer to the best of my ability.
We live in a small town. Not a lot of diversity of opinion or thought. As I read through any forum debating religious ideas, I see example after example of mind numbing ignorance on the part of Christians.
One of the guys in our group put it this way, "if you asked my grandparents why they believe something about God they say 'because it's in the Bible'." Well that's not good enough and it makes us look like fools.
I want real thoughts from real people who happen to disagree with us. Christianity should be able to defend itself in the arena of ideas. This is the arena of ideas.
