I can't believe in the current Christian sense of a god because the Bible is simply too... disproven (and I don't care to list the "dis"-proof that has been listed dozens of times before) for me, a logical and rational creature, to accept.

People think they have disproven the bible. You cant really disprove the bible. All those things people have said that belied the bible were just abstract.

If they're abstract you should stop taking them literally. You can't have it both ways.

Im not saying the bible is abstract; the disproofs made about the bible are.

I dont take the Bible as literally as most people do.

Why would you take it literally on some parts and not others? Are you refusing to show faith?! blink.gif blink.gif

I never said that. I just take the whole bible normally, what a normal christian would.

That is so broad. What do you believe from the bible? Be more specific.

You can't just believe in one part but not the others, that's showing the lack of faith in the bible, unless you admit that part is wrong. In whichcase, what's to prevent the other sections to be wrong?

you cannot take the bible literally, because if you do... you should be able to recite a single word where the arrows hits. That is crazy. If you know every single detaill then you can take the bible litterally, It would be easyer to apply it to your own life. That is just what it means that you cannot take it too literal.

I do take the entire bible literally to a certain extent, but not as great of some others like catholics. They take it too far and sometimes go overboard.

Ugh, once again, you show no examples. What parts of it do they go overboard then? Why do you believe some parts should be taken literally while others not quite as much?

hey dont atk christians

The topic was what do you believe in....
Report, edit, etc...Posted by MillenniumArmy on 2005-02-03 at 23:47:08
Cheeze, how many times do i gotta tell you. I take all the parts of the bible equally literally to an extent. Stop asking "Why do you take some parts of the bible literally and not others." I already answered that.


Hmmm, i thought i already explained many times what's wrong with catholicism... Owell ill state them again:

- Buying people out of Heaven/Hell by paying money. Indulgences i think.
- Doing more weird types of communion the bible doesnt even ask for
- Say sex is bad and/or priests should remain virgins
- Thinking in order to go to heaven you must do good deeds
- Believing Mary was Virgin Mary and is like a holy angel or something when it specifically says in the Bible that she's not
And more...

They're not attacking christians, they're just simply asking why.

THIS TOPIC IS GOING DOWNHILL.

Now that I have your attention, get back on topic. Go debate Christianity on a different thread. Lord knows we have hundreds of them
