Mrs Mancunian doesn't approve of me being here. She is what's known as a café Christian. She does all the right things. She prays for her brother who is in prison. She prays for our kids, she prays that her deceased mother can hear her. Nothing changes. Her brother is still being beaten up in...

I do try to be honest, I've tried and failed at pulling the wool over my wife's eyes. I definitely didn't shrink her wool cardigan in the tumble dryer.

I would have to believe, but whether I could bring myself to obey is another matter. It would be like being between a rock and a hard place.... Not liking the heaven scenario, an eternity rubbing shoulders with undesirable people with no way out, or the alternative what ever that may be. And...

Eh?

I object to wasting commandments on trivia.... The first four are all about God's ego, he could have dropped one of those in favour of let's say "Thou shalt not make slaves" or "Thou shalt not go to war". Of course the others are givens. If God is perfectly moral and the commandments are...

Yes. Do you think that Noah's flood story was borrowed from the Epic of Gilgamesh?

Empty tomb bible contradiction. The four Gospel accounts of the empty tomb contain several notable discrepancies in their details, which critics view as contradictions and apologists view as complementary perspectives. Key Discrepancies in the Accounts • Who went to the tomb: Mark mentions...

The new testament is a sequel, we need to look at the OT as the word of God. The commandments that were handed to Moses (cough cough) are the moral standard.

Remember. This is the single most important piece of information that mankind needs to know about. Everything rests on this.It's a matter of life and death. Actually. It's contradictory. The resurrection of jesus wasn't documented until at least 30 years later... John was nearly a century later.

I think that Marveloustime hasn't got anything constructive to say. If he or she did have anything constructive to say, he or she would use their own words and not rely on posting Facebook ready slogans.

Do you really believe that God eliminated every living thing on this planet apart from Noah, his family and two of every 'Kind'. I always wonder about marsupials? I wonder about eucalyptus. I wonder about bamboo. I wonder about the giant anteater. I wonder about where Noah got his Emperor...

I've read it over and over and over and over. Matthew Mark Luke and John. I've read them over and over and over and over.

The main reason that I don't believe in the Christian God is that the gospels don't agree with eachother. This is the most important part of the holy Bible. This part must be coherent and all of the gospels must agree. The crucifixion and resurrection of jesus must be the most important event...

And before you say it Elijah ascended and Elisha was the replacement prophet that was mocked for his baldness. I wonder why the creator of Saturn Uranus and Jupiter would get involved?

It's all very confusing. Little wonder that I don't believe.

Yes we all know what the God who created the universe, our solar system, the laws of physics and mathematics did to the children of bethel too according to the Bible. Are we accepting that a God that is so powerful and all knowing, sent some bears to maul children because they mocked Elijah...

The ark supposedly came to rest on Mt Ararat? The flood waters covered the highest mountains on earth, I'm assuming though that the flood waters would have been a diluted saltwater... Rain is freshwater and so are underground springs. A pretty toxic mix for fish, but that's another topic.... The...

Yes, that's up for debate.... I would say the earth is divided today, I think that may have been what was meant, not necessarily continental drift.

Firstly, I'm not interested in your squabbles with whoever.... I think that you are all equally misguided. I know that you all think the same of me, so I guess we're on a level playing field. I'm quite enjoying the debate and I do question my own thoughts and opinions, I'm not interested in...

All I am saying is that in the Bible's account of creation, modern day rivers are mentioned. This would lead one to believe that the authors knew nothing of Pangaea and how the continents separated. We know that the Mediterranean that is also mentioned in the Bible formed firstly as a dry...
