It really doesn't matter what the 'religious say' the verbiage amounts to nothing more than empty platitudes from an empty deity

Oh yeah! The whole "in context" drives me insane. Especially when some parts are to be taken literal in the Bible and some are not to be taken literally.... it's awesome how they can pick and choose which items and when.

Cherry picking in the extreme IMHO Undecided

Bit like how the Qur'an is perfect BECAUSE it is written in Qur'anic Arabic so as to BE whatever you want at the time!

I hate this one, not so much for the stupidity it entails, but because of the unavoidable follow up questions.

The word "tradition".

In a religious context or not, I dislike it.

Things change... Deal with it.

HuhA man is born to a virgin mother, lives, dies, comes alive again and then disappears into the clouds to become his Dad. How likely is that?

I say "Jesusfuckingchrist" in frustration sometimes. I can't help it really, and picked it up from the Jesus people... I find that truly fucked up. I've known people whom revered the ten commandments, and then 20 minutes later they're "Jesusfuckingchristing" the asshole that cut them off in traffic. I don't give a shit if people go around saying "blasphemous" shit for obvious reasons, but I do a have a problem with blatant hypocrisy.

Pretty sure we all do that. I say 'God knows' a lot. Who cares, they're in the vernacular, nobody takes them literally anyway.
