US christians: if gays are an abomination then so is your national symbol...

US christians: if gays are an abomination then so is your national symbol... if gays are an abomination, as some christians so loudly, and so proudly and so frequently claim, then using the same book from the bible where they get that gay idea in the first place, isn't the USA itself an abomination for having an Eagle as it's national symbol?…

The Bible instructs how to deal with an atheist or anyone who rejects God . . . Kill them.

I found this article whilst on reddit this morning, thought i'd share it with you all. I hope it makes you laugh as much as it did me :D



The vast majority of Christians are very good people. They follow Jesus’ teaching to “love your enemies”. But as we see throughout the Bible, this teaching is contradicted over and over again.

Latest hot read for hundreds is the Bible

http://www.denverpost.com/search/ci_11584824
My mother sent me the actual article, and I found it online to share with ya'll...Truly disturbing.
Here's an excerpt: It's a book awash in blood, teeming with psychosexual drama and rife with supernatural occurrences, yet the Bible is seldom read like a novel, beginning to end.
They advocate reading the Bible like fiction but treating it like nonfiction. How ludicrous!

The Problem of Evil, Extended

If Evil was made by the Fall, whenceforth was Eve tempted?



That sums it up right there.



Some Christians say that evil did not exist until the Fall - that all suffering and sin came about as a result of Eve's choice to disobey God. That sounds reasonable, right?



Riiiiight.



Imagine a world where there is no sin. Everything is perfect. The sun is shining, the birds are singing, and the lion is gettin' cuddly with that lamb over there (but not… Continue

Truth: still scarier than fiction

I suppose I've never really written about this before, because it seems like too obvious a point to need addressing. But people do keep making these same tired old arguments, displaying a very tedious lack of imagination or intellectual curiosity.

on the two biblical flood stories...

one of TA's brightest and best regulars, Pam, posted a response to a recent thread where she mentioned the two contradictory flood stories in Genesis. Pam told us that she had brought up the two flood accounts to a person who had done some religious studies and that this person then invoked the classic inerrantist dodge by saying that the… Continue

Do You Have Biblical Morals?

Most of us who have deconverted have knowledge of some of the horrible laws the bible has. Many of us have probably encountered at least one believer who was completely oblivious to those additional obscure laws. Or if they are vaguely aware of them will dismiss them as being from the old testament. Someone has created a questionnaire on GoToQuiz.com that tests to see if your morals are biblically aligned.



The Bible's Moral Laws Should be Locked Away Forever
