Is that all you got ? A medieval interpretation of religion ? How do you feel about a medieval interpretation of science ?

@Ionus,
You do realize that a well informed atheist would not try to poke fun at a theist's belief but only try and share info with them that might get them to think?

You do realize that both an atheist and a theist alike can come across as hateful?

Neither one of them has perfected an ethical reality!

@edgarblythe,
This is the one I like the best! I can only guess it is because I am simple minded and it gets directly to the point in a very simple way!

I have experienced similar confrontations in my lifetime. It is very real and hard-hitting.

@reasoning logic,
Thats just a word game . What was the concept behind all those Gods ? A belief in the power of a God . It is like naming cars to prove you dont have a car .

I could be wrong but that may have been our ancestors history! {Some what!}

Do you think that Jehovah was the first god to be worshiped?

If the bible is true, then we know he was.

@Eorl,
But didn't have a line about having no gods before him? That does tend to indicate that Yahweh was a pantheist (with resentment issues).

Yahweh was the God introduced by Moses and he goes to great pains to say that Yahweh is the same God of Abraham, El or Elohim . It seems El was the Moon God and Yahweh was the sun god.....much later the God of the Hebrews became the one and only God but at this stage he was the first of the Gods .

@Ionus,
Curse you bloody heathens! You just used the bible to prove the bible wrong on monotheism! Is there nothing that thing can't do?

@hingehead,
One of the best pieces of evidence that the Jews were once pantheists, or at least acknowledge the existence of other gods comes from Genesis.

Chapter Three, Verse 22, in the King James version:

And the LORD God said, Behold, the man is become as one of us, to know good and evil: and now, lest he put forth his hand, and take also of the tree of life, and eat, and live for ever

"Is become as one of us?" How very plural of them . . .

@Eorl,
I find the Bible to be a fascinating history . It shows the development of a single God or monotheism and the development of most of the strong religious principles we now take for granted in our laws and culture .

The development of law for example.....Abraham refuting human sacrifice....an eye for an eye meant no longer were rich people to pay a 50 cent fine for blinding a peasant but if a peasant blinded them the peasant lost his life.....such major advances, far ahead of the surrounding peoples, would take one step forwards and one step backwards throughout history .

@spendius,
Spendius What do you think about this southern preacher's thinking?

I would say that this reflects the average "so called" believer's thinking in the southern US!

@reasoning logic,
I no longer view your video links rl. 20 stupid ones in a row is quite sufficient evidence for me. Tell us the gist of it.

@spendius,
Me telling you the gist about someone who speaks for himself would not be fair to the accuracy of his claims!

How hard is it to start a video and if it sucks turn it off? That is what most people do who are not interested!

I did see a video that had a lot of sexy women with huge breast would you like for me to share that one with you?

@spendius,
Spendius you thought that it was kind of me to offer porn like material but you seem to be bashful if anyone knows you have a interest in such things.

I stumbled upon this material studying human behavior and I found it odd that someone talking about psychology and the problems people have, "has a video with such material!

Go ahead Spendius you know you can't resist!

@reasoning logic,
I can resist. I have resisted. I will continue to resist. Your linked vids are dire. I've seen enough to know.

Study sociology. That's the most interesting science now. But don't go jumping to any impulsive judgments after the first lecture. The subject has a tendency to go to people's heads.
