Ray Comfort Books

[Mister Agenda]

Welcome Josephine, I hope you like it around here.

Mr. Comfort, how is it you can charge money for books where you use Scripture, and talk about God in any way shape or form?

You can't be serious.  Religion is the most lucrative scam in human history.

[Joods]

Yes... this question should be publicly posted to every single church and religious organization out there.

Also - JR - are you going to come back and discuss your post or was this a one time toilet paper wiping kind of post?

I'm not sure, Joods, but I think maybe JR meant this as her intro post, but she ended up inadvertently posting it in the "Ask a..." subforum of Introductions.

The content of the OP doesn't quite match up with my hypothesis, but it doesn't quite rule it out either.

Just in case, maybe we should give "welcomes" to JR

Comfort is an idiot. He is no fool, however. One would be a fool to not profit from that deep well of creationist credulity.

I don't think he's a member of the boards OP. Here's my question to you, though. What does "sticking to science" have to do with "inaccuracies" of interpreting doctrine? Additionally..which is worse, getting doctrine "wrong"......or failing to accurately communicate whatever science you purport to be discussing?

I can't help but shake the suspicion that you are merely telling us that you don't believe what ray comfort believes about bible. Well, get in line, christianity is massively divided on precisely that issue. Do you, however, believe what he believes regarding evolution?

[chimp3]

The idea that Comfort "sticks" with science is fucking laughable. When has he ever begun with science?

[SteelCurtain]

If you did stick to science in your books, you would avoid being accused of inaccuracies in your interpretation of some doctrine, which I here accuse you of.

We'll pass it along to him.

Ray comfort is a total clown . Who wasn't even able to convince a room full of christians his creationist nonsense is true . And he's even been destroyed on the bible . Hell other loony preachers think he's nuts .

I also write to atheists and evolutionists on facebook at <Snippity> and on Quora.  I recently bought three of Ray Comfort's books.  In the first chapters of Nothing Created Everything, I found that some of the thoughts therein, I had already or have read them elsewhere.  I find the book so far interesting albeit a little disorganized.  However, I wish I had not paid money for the books.  With that thought, it occurred to me: Mr. Comfort, how is it you can charge money for books where you use Scripture, and talk about God in any way shape or form?  If you are sticking to science and sending people to the scriptures, links, or places where scripture can be explained, I can see getting paid.  However, if you are citing scripture, and explaining, it seems to me the ultimate in sacrilege, and unentitlement if you are charging money for your books.  If you did stick to science in your books, you would avoid being accused of inaccuracies in your interpretation of some doctrine, which I here accuse you of.

You know, you're giving out about a man misinterpreting a book which, in its first two chapters, gives three incompatible visions of its protagonist.

In genesid 1 & 2 yhwh is described variously as a minor god in a pantheon, a god amongst many who was the jews exclusive worship idol and finally as the only god on the planet.
