I recently ended a relationship with a girl. She is a missionary baptist. I don't know how many of these freaks you guys know, but they are twisted and brainwashed individuals.
I remember getting into many religious and theological discussions with this girl. She honestly believes that the author of the bible is god himself. Our dialogue was something to this effect.
Me: "It's not like god had a mysterious typewriter and wrote the bible and then dropped it from the sky"
Her: "Hey, that could have been what happened."
I'm so confused...there were also countless times where she told me i needed to do some "soul searching"
one crazy lady |

If god inspired it then think, why did it have to be edited so many times, why did it need to be revised hundreds of times, even to this day it must be alterd, god did a lousy job in making that clear I gues so bad that we had to totaly rewrite it over and over and over (add ifninitum) again. |

No, no it is not, they took out stories, added stories, they changed the plot AND the very structure of the book, again, you have much to learn, and the apologists are not the ones to learn it from. |

Many have and published their work, it is all there for the finding, even the modifications from the last 20 years is drastic, in fact the whole meeting of the churches to edit it is a well known fact to any whom actually chose to look.
Get three different bibles and look at their differences, and what they conveniently left out, in fact ask your self, why are there different versions to begin with
Oh and look up the Skeptics annotated bible. that will teach you more about the buybull then your preacher would ever want you too! After ask him about it, and inquire, I was banned from a churche for asking questions after I was forced to go to one when yunger. |

Yes I know about that, about the NVI version and so on, I myself use quite an old version. Not all christians agree with those changes. |

but now go back only 400 years or less, an even bigger change was made by the original mega church money maker (The Roman Catholic church) They are the ones who really wrote the current bible, or what most think is, they executed the guy who translated it to English by burning him at the stake, of course while translating they tossed some of their own brand of the myth into it.
Seems like at every stage it has been edited, Now how do they know it wasn't Satan who's hand has guided it? they don't Or mans? Well we know for a fact that is what created it in the first place, any way.
this should be one of them red flags that make you go "Wait a minute!" If this word was so inspired then why are there any changes made, or versions needed, the answere is dead simple  |

...sigh.
wait a minute ... the Roman Catholic Church compiled the Bible... from where? Jewish scriptures ... present today (to analize) and it sure has been analized! One can do deeper search on the subject though. |

Yes from jewish scripture and other writings, they assembled all the various buybulls at the time into the Book you see today, well sort off, after the original church made up the compilation and edited it, and did all the removing adding shuffling, it was put into Greek, then a unfortunate sap who translated it to English and was later roasted for it is how you ended up with the King James version, from there all chaos breaks loose as any whack job can now read/edit/and make a mess of it, and they did (Patt Robertson any one?)
Screw the crap IN the book, just learning how it came to be deals with the inspired myth. aChristion Apoligists are not at all knowen for their honesty or accuracy of their own religion, quite the oppesit, they are well knowen for trying to lie and twist what their mythology says to gain suport, thats why I said, they are not the ones to learn such things, funny, how athiests tend to be the most honest when it is the christions religion that demandsit of them yet they decieve, tells you some thing ells that does. |

wow! good thing there is an eternal moral code we should all follow. Because, those are some really important values to live by. Im pretty sure there is nothing in there about pedophillia. Just the important farm animal stuff. |

Ya "Who cares about that preacher boffing pipy long stalkings! Theres a guy shafting a donkey and they're both lovin it KILL THEM!" Ya great morals eh?
Again, they hate any thing that is good, if it dosn't include sky daddy and worship suffering and hate.
I threw out the buybull few year back while moving other wise I'd find it for ya, it was some where in the leveticus area if I recall. |
