@reasoning logic,
RL, you quoted me saying:
The god had just created the 200 billion plus suns in our galaxy...and the billions of galaxies that we know of...and had spread them through space so vast it takes light billions of years to traverse it.
The god probably had no slaves, RL. The god didn't need them.
You then wrote:
Quote:
Come on Frank you have no evidence for any this so why are you making this claim?
You really ought to look up the words "humor" and "joking" in a dictionary, RL.
What on Earth would make you think I am making this claim in seriousness?
Quote:All that we have are the bibles or legends at hand and none of them seem creditable to me.
Okay. I am always interested in what seem "creditable" to you. But since you are so alert and perceptive, I would have suspected you would realize that I am calling into question the notions about gods and what offend and delight gods offered in the Bible.
Quote:I am not claiming that there is no God nor would I claim that there is not a Easter bunny in reality. But I would seriously doubt the both but I suspect that they are equal.
I also am interested in what you suspect about various things, RL. I am, I might mention, a bit concerned with your preoccupation with the Easter Bunny, though.
Quote:If all that we have is what is in front of us, why would you think that those who wrote these things did not have slaves? You do realize that we came from pastoral or herding societies?
And where did I say that anyone except the god that supposedly made the entire universe did not have slaves?
Quote:I do think that what we call our God of the old testament had slaves and I would like to know why you would think otherwise.
RL, I truly am sorry you think "what we call our God" of the Old Testament had slaves...and that you think that to be a reasonable guess, but I will defend to the death your right to think it.
