RE: Favorite Bible Verses
Here is a good one:

"Come now, you rich, weep and howl for your miseries that are coming upon you! Your riches are corrupted, and your garments are moth-eaten. Your gold and silver are corroded, and their corrosion will be a witness against you and will eat your flesh like fire. You have heaped up treasure in the last days. Indeed the wages of the laborers who mowed your fields, which you kept back by fraud, cry out; and the cries of the reapers have reached the ears of the Lord of Sabbath. You have lived on the earth in pleasure and luxury; you have fattened your hearts as in a day of slaughter. You have condemned, you have murdered the just; he does not resist you." James 5

America's mixing of unrestrained capitalism and christianity amuse me sometimes.

Though it does make me wonder if there is any civilization that was not built on the back of slave or similar exploitation.

Thor, my lad. How can you embarrass someone who believes in a talking snake to begin with?

Very true! Not to mention a all the other drivel you must accept as factual!
Science flies us to the moon and stars. Religion flies us into buildings.

God allowed 200,000 people to die in an earthquake. So what makes you think he cares about YOUR problems?

Here's an uplifting couple verses oozing with divine transcendence:

"Now therefore kill every male among the little ones, and kill every woman that hath known man by lying with him. But all the women children, that have not known a man by lying with him, keep alive for yourselves." (Numbers 31:17-18)

I feel more spiritual already!

Can you imagine what this deity would be like if he didn't love us?
