The Genesis account is history?
Explain please?
Is Job a real story or a parable?
Did Jonah really live in the belly of a fish for 3 days?
"Spare the rod and spoil the child" mean physical punishment?
God created all we know in
6 literal 24 hour days?
Noah built an ark that looked like a
boat and loaded a pair of ALL critters
on it for 40 days?
Really?
Perhaps look up "parable" and learn it's meaning.
Clue: It ain't literal.
Well I guess fundamentalists still exist in this day and age.
Some
Christians { sic } still pass around a basket of rattlesnakes to demonstrate
"faith" in God.
Some
Christians march with signs saying "God hates fags".
Be advised that there are at least 33,000 denominations of Christians.
Most feel their denomination is the only one and true denomination.
33,000 known, recognized denominations of "Christians" all reading
the same book.
I'm shooting from the hip here but I'll hazard a guess some of the 33,000
denominations might have a few things wrong.
Six literal days of creation huh?
Eaten by a fish and 3 days later is alive and well?
"Spare the rod" means beat your kids with a stick?
History?
Wow.
I posit that reading the Bible is NOT Bible STUDY.
STUDY the Bible does not mean read it.
Recall 33,000 denominations of Christians all reading the same book.
Here; for consideration:
STUDY means.........................
- the devotion of time and attention to acquiring knowledge on an academic subject, especially by means of books:
Just sitting in a church and reading the Bible does not make one a Christian any more than sitting in a chicken coop makes one a chicken.
Rebuttal please?
