A Serious Thread. Seriously?
May 9, 2022 at 2:14 pm (This post was last modified: May 9, 2022 at 2:15 pm by onlinebiker.)
Isn' t putting a " serious" tag on bible discussion a bit like sticking one on a comic book thread and expecting serious discussion about " could Batman really kick Superman's ass?"......

Yes. 

And Batman has kicked Superman’s ass, so it’s probably moot.

Yeah, there is nothing serious about the Bible.
teachings of the Bible are so muddled and self-contradictory that it was possible for Christians to happily burn heretics alive for five long centuries. It was even possible for the most venerated patriarchs of the Church, like St. Augustine and St. Thomas Aquinas, to conclude that heretics should be tortured (Augustine) or killed outright (Aquinas). Martin Luther and John Calvin advocated the wholesale murder of heretics, apostates, Jews, and witches. - Sam Harris, "Letter To A Christian Nation"

And Judge Dredd beat the crap out of Batman.

Crossovers are not canon, and therefore do not count.

No argument. In fact, some witty, charming AF member posted a meme to that effect in the ‘Random Humorous Things’ thread.

And doubly so given that the original poster is not willing to argue in good faith and just trying to drum up excuses to badmouth atheists in general.
