Am wizz m'self laughin' that Drich is referenceing a movie of all things to support his claims.
Can I reference Mathew Broderic in 'War games' to boleter my views on 1980's cold war politics?
Jigger me sideways Drich's poets are a good laugh sometimes! 
what's really funny is now you get it even if I had to borrow from a pop culture source.. but only if there was some biblical precedent of borrowing from popculture to illustrate a story in the bible and tie it to a much broader but refined principle... Something like taking a story and PARALELLING it with a principle law or truth that maybe harder to understand for someone with little to know understanding of godly things but with a good working understanding of popular culture...
hmmm 
 Hey pee-ho(le) I talking about a Parable.
You know the stories Jesus used to connect people familiar with their popular culture and assigned meaning to his story by illustrating his points in a way people can understand more easily.
Pop culture has changed sport.. people's understanding of God has not. So they need something they can relate to and what more reliable way than a movie everyone has seen, change one or two plot points and next thing you know you have a sunday school lesson.
It's called teaching... is it so strange a concept to you that someone would be here trying to educate others or at least give them a better understanding of what they hate? Never crossed you mind we are not all here to just hate each other?

You... seem to be really reaching there Drich.
I am finding it amusing that, as evidence to bolster your point, the very best you could seem to do was reffer to a movie.
Not a documentary. Not some scolastic, peer reveiwed work or collection of statistics but a piece of entertainment.
Hence my comment of some one, or I, attempting to make some insightful comments about cold war America... only to reffer to "War Games' starring Michael Broderic as supposed supporting evidence for said claims.
That you're continuing to try and run with you narrative as opposed to rebutting my remarks would also seem also to be par for the course with yourself as you relate to every one else on the forum.
As for "Peoples understanding of god has not changed" ?
Gee... that's odd. I would actually seem to think people's understanding of your diety has changed a great deal. Unless you still think things such as slavery are a good, moral choice for people to keep doing in this modern age as opposed to back when technology was still in the bronze age.
Not at work.

I believe that all of the archeological, historical, cultural and linguistic evidence is that the Bible is a naturalistic work of ancient peoples and their literature and cultural, nothing more.

Drich,
The Jesus Seminar, which consisted of over a dozen of the most prominent Biblical scholars and dozens of other contributing scholars, coded the entire Gospel of John with black beads (used to vote on whether the group of scholars thought that a particular phrase was actually spoken by the historical Jesus), which means that they believed that not a single sentence in the entire gospel of John was, in fact, spoken by the historical Jesus.
Do you agree with their scholarly analysis and conclusions? If not, why not?

What's the point of talking about a batshit movie or the "scholastic climate"? Go straight to the timeless and ineffable source!
New Magic Book told you that you'd be persecuted wherever you go.
I am the Infantry. I am my country’s strength in war, her deterrent in peace. I am the heart of the fight… wherever, whenever. I carry America’s faith and honor against her enemies. I am the Queen of Battle. I am what my country expects me to be, the best trained Soldier in the world. In the race for victory, I am swift, determined, and courageous, armed with a fierce will to win. Never will I fail my country’s trust. Always I fight on…through the foe, to the objective, to triumph overall. If necessary, I will fight to my death. By my steadfast courage, I have won more than 200 years of freedom. I yield not to weakness, to hunger, to cowardice, to fatigue, to superior odds, For I am mentally tough, physically strong, and morally straight. I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!
