Your gospel writers are storytellers.
I've been reading stories for almost half a century, but I've never read a story with more discrepancies as found in the Bible. Just think, if a biblical writer had written The Cat in the Hat, some versions would say it was raining and some would say it was snowing. The fish in the bowl would be open to interpretation as a bird in a cage. And the cat himself will have a tie rather than a hat in an age where hats are frowned upon.
Yeah, I'm relieved that the Biblical authors weren't around to fuck up some of my childhood favorites. Green Eggs and Bitter Herbs would have sucked. The boy from I Wish That I Had Duck Feet probably would have drowned in a flood. I shudder to imagine what they would have done to Brer Rabbit.

The god who allows children to be raped out of respect for the free will choice of the rapist, but punishes gay men for engaging in mutually consensual sex couldn't possibly be responsible for an intelligently designed universe.

I do like to pay lip service to it. Swing low, sweet Stimbo. I'm a true believer now. When you start speaking in tongues, you turn a girl into a holy roller.

Don't feel bad. It's not your fault the temples are mobile.
A Christian told me: if you were saved you cant lose your salvation. you're sealed with the Holy Ghost
I replied: Can I refuse? Because I find the entire concept of vicarious blood sacrifice atonement to be morally abhorrent, the concept of holding flawed creatures permanently accountable for social misbehaviors and thought crimes to be morally abhorrent, and the concept of calling something "free" when it comes with the strings of subjugation and obedience perhaps the most morally abhorrent of all... and that's without even going into the history of justifying genocide, slavery, rape, misogyny, religious intolerance, and suppression of free speech which has been attributed by your own scriptures to your deity. I want a refund. I would burn happily rather than serve the monster you profess to love.

It's nice to see so many people were inspired by my gospels. Let us not forget, to be truly saved we need to have females inspiring female orgasms also.
