"The Bible" Leads ALL SHOWS in Sunday Night's Ratings

Because you do not understand photosynthesis does not mean that you do not understand that plants need light. You need only a couple of years to figure that out. Agriculture has been crucial in the development of our species and flourish.

 

You lost me here. I'm trying to point out that whoever put the first fruit-juice-ink on papyrus to write the Genesis creation account sure as hell knew that plants would have needed the sun before they could grow. So obviously the point was not to put it in the order that you are irrationally hung up on.

 

If there is a how, then it is inconsequential. If there is a prescription to understanding that is not native, it is certainly not of God.

 

By that measure, why should there be anything to read at all, right? All knowledge about God and our origins should be native?

 

Reading is fine... however by that measure the supernatural should be dismissed for logical explanation. We are natural beings, in a natural universe. We have made the mistake since we were able to record our ideas of supernatural forces based solely on ignorance.

When you hear the stories of the Gods of ancient Rome or Greece... you have no issue dismissing them as silly superstition. In fact, you are willing to do so for the hundreds and thousands of religions which preceded the one you accept.

I simply believe one more of that horde is ridiculous than you.

That you so easily dismiss those religions, and your frustration that I reject yours is born of the same thing... the pursuit of truth.

THAT is native to humans. We share it. I simply haven't arrived at so convenient a solution as you have.

 

'God' supposedly 'inspired' the bible. So whether or not early man knew that plants need sun light is immaterial.

 

Everyone is an Atheist. Some of us just believe in one less 'god'.

 

But everyone regardless of religion did believe in a God or higher power, so how do you explain that?

 

Easy, man needs a explination for everything. If man cannot explain something, man will reationalize bull(*)(*)(*)(*) to make an explination.

 

This is called Argumentum ad populum. A logical fallacy.

I will give you an answer thou. Man needs a explination for everything. If man cannot explain something, man will reationalize bull(*)(*)(*)(*) to make an explination.

 

We are programmed to accept convenient answers. Some don't. It is just a different perspective which holds more objective truth. Stuff is. I can explain a lot of it, and I can evidence a lot of it... but... stuff exists... and based on my natural understanding of life, of logic, and of order, and a perception of chaos... stuff just doesn't come into existence... so I was a sucker for a unifying answer as a child... and the bible held it. I moved on. Most I know didn't... and it is apparently only polite to discuss when they are bothering you by trespassing. It's ok... they will be forgiven.

 

Sorry... I had to.

 

Good beats evil was part of human story telling LOOOOONG before even the events in the bible set in ancient Egypt were said to be occurring. King Gilgamesh laughs at all other heroes from his 4,500+ year old literary throne.

 

Jesus never says he is God, you seem to believe it based on?
Jesus never claims to be the messiah, you belive it because?

 

We know how (*)(*)(*)(*)ing light works bro. It is electromagnetic radiation that requires a source to be created and spread. Before there was stars and other such centers of heat and energy, the universe was a very dark place. You can't just say "light was always there" that doesn't (*)(*)(*)(*)nig work. Here, I'll prove it. Go into a room with a light on, then close the door, and shut off the light. Unless you live in a parallel universe, the light will nearly instantly dissipate, and there will be no light.

 

Unless they have an education and start to ask questions. Then it will be WTF?

 

And it neglects to mention the dinosaurs...

 

Silly. Dinosaurs were before the earth was created.

 

I feel sorry for Christians who are so insecure in their beliefs they have to trumpet every little thing that helps affirm their faith, including the ratings of a show not even 10% of the population of America tuned into to watch.

But the creationist museum told me Adam and Eve rode them!

 

Here is undisputable proof that Jesus walked with Dinosaurs:

 

He also drowned the (*)(*)(*)(*)ing planet once lol. God is documented in most conservative estimates killing 2 million people in the bible by himself, not including the killing he has his followers do. High estimates range all the way up too and over 30 million.
Satan kills 10. And those 10 were Job's family, which was done in a (*)(*)(*)(*)ing bet with (*)(*)(*)(*)(*)(*)(*) god, who gladly allowed the killings too happen.

John 10:10 says Satan’s only purpose is to “Steal, KILL, and Destroy.”Yet it is actually god in the bible, who is the great destroyer. Much like a child playing with an ant farm.

 

I bet they only showed the good parts in the Bible, and left out the bad. Did they show that massive flood that God created, to kill the people he created but disliked? How about when he destroyed those two cities because he hated the people living there? What about when he ordered little babies to be killed?

 

Some of the rip offs are more blatant than others. The Noah's ark story is clearly plagiarized from the story of Utnapishtim and the Flood which was part of the Epic of Gilgamesh written in 2500 B.C.
Seriously, the only real difference is the names, and there are several gods instead of one.
The world gets filled with fighting and sin, so the head gods decide to purify the world with a great flood. One of the gods finds Utnapishtim, who is one of the few good and spiritual people left. He talks to him through the wind and tells him to build an ark. Utnapishtim builds the ark, puts his family on it as well as one male and one female of every animal species on earth on it. Then it rains for 6 days and 6 nights, the world is flooded, and only Utnapishtim and the contents of his ark survive to repopulate the world. On the 7th day it stops raining and they landed on the top of mount Nisir. Utnapishtim sent out a dove, and it returned. The next day he sent out a swallow, and it came back as well. On the third day he sent out a raven, and when it did not return, Utnapishtim knew it had found a dry place to land, and Utnapishtim, his family, and the animals exited the boat.

Then over a thousand years later the Hebrews ripped off the story.

 

Anyone else finding it funny that Grok keeps desperately replying to people showing the hilarious inaccuracies in the Bible by quoting the same texts that back them up?

 

But you've dismissed such authorship by deducing that a true "creator" would have known that he had to make the sun before he made plants. I'm pointing out that the actual writer, inspired or not, would have also known this fact. Yet he wrote it the way he did because the chronology was not the point he was trying to make.

If you read all literature through such a narrow lens you will get nothing from what the rest of us consider classics. If that's the case, you're really missing out on some powerful stuff.
