Land of the giants... ;-)

Sometimes I wish God would appear... and tell us that times have changed... abortion is not the root of all evil.. the gay community shall not be cast out... and dinosaurs did exist...

Come on.. we have the iPhone 7 now... surely we should be up to the bible 4S...

Religion is great for those that want to find peace and meaning (in a blinkered not wanting to accept the truth kind of way)...

When religion starts to dictate your lifestyle and politics, that's when things go wrong...

God/religion along with greed, Resources, Nationalism etc are the reasons people go to war, But the fear of God also keeps people on a straight(not fab straight) path, I recon a lot of people would go a little crazy if it was proven that there wasn't a almighty God watching us

I don't think it's outdated at all, I think it's absolutely relevant still today, I really don't understand why we keep amending it.

Ok... this post wasn't meant to be serious.. maybe the Catholic church should work like Apple... you can consume the body and blood of Christ.. but you need to order online... only from us.. and we will charge you the earth... and capture all of your personal data to generate a profile of you... and you lot will be sent a thousand hail Mary's as penance for your sins...

There are over 100 commandments, rather than just the 10 we all know.

I'd love to see a full list, and somewhere on there have one that goes "Thou shalt not take any of these seriously, just having a laugh lol"

l'm agnostic but l like religion, well some of them.

My problem with people who like to assert their atheistic moral superiority is that they operate with a line in the sand just like any other religious person and that can't be justified. Where do you get your morality from? From which source, other than wanting to be seen as progressive?

Why is abortion a-okay but killing someone else is not? The current cut off point for abortion is 24 weeks, the youngest premature baby to survive outside the womb and live is around 20 weeks.

So forgive me if l don't buy your morality anymore than Father O'Reilley's

I think the cut off point for abortions is nothing to do with religion. ..more financial.

Remember when the Catholic pedophile abuse/scandal/cover-up occurred under the last Pope/Emperor Palpatine lookalike, one of the surprising things that came out was that the Church still sends faxes and does so in Latin.

You might have a job on your hands reforming the Bible.

Oh my fucking god (sorry God )... there's this BS creationist museum in Kentucky in the US and I thought I'd have a laugh at the mock ups of Adam and Eve leaving the Garden of Eden whilst frolicking with dinosaurs...

But there's a creationist museum in the UK (Plymouth) and, up the road from me in Somerset is Noah's Ark Zoo Farm that, whilst not actually being a museum, promotes creationism as fact.

Fuck me.

You know the old saying, never bring up politics or religion in polite society...

Not that I'm saying the ladies and gents here are not polite, far be it from me to cast such aspersions..

Perhaps if you wish to poke fun at religion, try starting with a life of Brian quote..

Every time im just about to release a newly updated version, you lot have only gone and changed your ways again. That kind of defeats the purpose of releasing a newly outdated bible, does it not?

I don't think the problem is that the Bible needs updating! I Believe that the Bible was written by a number of clever and extremely manipulative men Who used it to control other men and subjugate women! It has been effective for thousands of years and will probably be so for another thousand years!

Because of it millions have been murdered or persecuted!

In some Christian African countries homosexual men are still hanged - because the bible says it's an unnatural practice!

I think the world would be a far better place if we had more humanity and less religion!

Having said that, I do believe in a God of sorts - just not the judgemental God of the bible!

Iceland, but Aldi is closer..

Religion is a good thing if not taken too seriously..

By all means, go to your church, sing a song, pray to your almighty, make a joke about that religion if you want;your perogative in a free society, get a feeling of belonging to something bigger (join a cross stitch or photography club if you are not into religion but want the same feeling), use your religion to help those less fortunate (out if an act of compassion and humanity but don't ram it down their throats) and ultimately find inner peace within you and those around you..

But don't blame religion for all the world's woes, that is a huge mistake..

If men didn't have religion to fight about, they'd fight about anything else (and they do.. Football for instance!!)

Mankind has always fought over land, food, shelter, women...the list is endless..

Give a man a feeble excuse to fight and he will up arms and go into battle.. It is instinctive and seen across all animals from the smallest insects to the largest mammals.

Religion is an excuse to fight, a reason to fight the good fight, a reason to oppress others with your bastardised interpretation of a book which ultimately was written as a morale guidance by scholars hundreds of years ago to teach a right from wrong and life in general..

Gods have fallen to the wayside over the millenia, some pretty impressive ones that are almost idolised today in fantasy movies and Disney cartoons, so whose to say that some day soon a new religious faith will not replace the current big hitters and in 500 years time Disney will make a cartoon where muhammad is the main character and kids will want a talking muhammad toy for Christmas (now that would be ironic!)..

It only takes an increase in popularity, something that appeals to the masses..

Not scrolled further down but assuming you're basing your 'knowledge' on 70's epic films?

Jesus was almost certainly Middle eastern or Asian - there's no way on earth he would've been white/European. Jesus is documented in many other faiths as well as Christianity, including historic non-religious scripts of the time! We can be as sure of his existence (though perhaps not the miracles) as we can of any historical figure of that period! He was NOT white!!

Arguing the colour of God is fatuous. No one has seen him so no-one knows. He (should he exist) may not even have a human form!

Sorry to intercede but the arguments were getting silly!

Like I said would you draw Muhammad on your gable wall for a laugh as well?. You know why you wouldn't though don't you

Jesus Christ is God?

I thought Jesus was the son of God?

In fairness it's a long time since I went to Sunday school.

It's the Holy Trinity! He is - to those who believe it - The Father, The Son and The Holy Spirit xx"

I love the story told by Dave Allen, his first day at school and he gets asked about the holy Trinity..

Well, I'll let the great man do the talking for himself..

No figured not

Not scrolled further down but assuming you're basing your 'knowledge' on 70's epic films?

Jesus was almost certainly Middle eastern or Asian - there's no way on earth he would've been white/European. Jesus is documented in many other faiths as well as Christianity, including historic non-religious scripts of the time! We can be as sure of his existence (though perhaps not the miracles) as we can of any historical figure of that period! He was NOT white!!

Arguing the colour of God is fatuous. No one has seen him so no-one knows. He (should he exist) may not even have a human form!

Sorry to intercede but the arguments were getting silly! "

My mum is a dark Ashkenazi yet you see very pale Mizrahis. Google Sofi Tsedaka, she is a Samaritan woman and Samaritans have never left lsrael.. Jesus interacted with people of her skin tone and may very well have looked the same ie. A white man. Also google Rachel Shabi, an lraqi Jew. She is also white.

This is an unfortunate route of thinking and l've actually had Muslims tell me that Ashkenazi's are not ''real Jews'' but are Khazars.

I'm not very religious but I do believe a lot of true words are spoken in the bible. Situations and circumstances that we go through in our lives, you can find advice how to deal with things in the bible.

The 10 commandments are also very good rules to live your life by. If more people abided by them then the world would e a much better place."

How about the bit in the Bible where it commands parents to stone unruly children to death, or the directions over "unclean" women on the blob. For instance.

People only read the bits they want.

The whole thing is palpable nonsense

I don't feel an urge to either accept or reject the existence of a high force....

But as far as the Bibles value as a useful document to be use as reference by those attempting to enforce their understanding of Gods instruction ...

In the name of their faith they seem more than willing to interpret that instruction by shamelessly exploiting the fear of fear and that must surely be wrong...

True! It's been written my men (allegedly) writing it on God's behalf. Like any very long book (if you want to strip it down to what it is) there are some great bits and some not-so-great bits!

It preaches mainly (but not exclusively) love and forgiveness in the New Testament (hence that tends to be the bit in hotel drawers/used at schools) - but if you read the Old Testament, God (and a LOT of his principal prophets/heroes) was an absolute bastard who killed (or ordered the killing of) countless thousands of people at will! People worshipped him through fear, not love, and the concept of God as something to be obeyed and feared above all else has been popular until a generation or two ago! It's only very recently we've adopted a 'cuddly' version of God who is benign and forgiving!

The Bible, until very recently, was used to essentially control the uneducated masses and subjugate women. What better way to keep millions of peasants down than to say 'your life may be really shit now - but put up with it meekly and you'll go to this great place called heaven - but steal food to feed your starving family and you'll go to hell for all eternity!'

And don't forget that at one point people were put to death for herecy if they translated the Bible from Latin to English! Those in power in the church wanted to make sure only the wealthy/church seniors could read it - so they could misinterpret it and bastardise it to the masses to suit their own ends!

Hear endeth the lesson!

I suggest you are guessing what the 10 are and don't know what they are

I suggest you look them up and you may note that most of the 10 are not good rules to abide ones life by

And I don't think any sane person needs to be told murder or theft is wrong so what do the other 8 say ?

Matthew 5:18 (new version ): Truly I tell you, until heaven and earth disappear, not the smallest letter, not the least stroke of a pen, will by any means disappear from the Law until everything is accomplished.

Ergo: no updates! "

And the number of self proclaimed Christians who ignore this part ? Pick and mix Christians make me smile as they hold up some parts as undeniable truth and dismiss other parts they randomly feel uncomfortable with as some how not part of their beliefs mandate ?

You do realise you and Muslims revere the same God concept don't you ?

You may also note that calling atheists sinners could be take offensively ?

According to the facts , if a god concept did exist it would not have any colour and certainly not white , we could determine it's motive and personality which would be pure sadism

Fortunately the is zero evidence to suggest a creator of any definition exists and multiple reams of data illustrating why each of the human invented concepts are wildly implausible xxx

The bible has been updated many times, we are currently using the 400 year old one which contains many revisions over the previous one which was constantly updated due to glitches and bug fixes between around 1100 and 1800 years ago based on stories that happened about 200 years before they wrote that one.

I suspect we are on version 56.7.3.0 at the moment.

Problem with updates since the printing press got invented is people have access to the older one and refuse to update. but there have been several attempts.

It's similar but not the same, Muslims don't acknowledge the death and resurrection of Jesus.

I didn't call them sinners,I said Jesus said they were sinners,.

As for colour, if you can arrange a virgin birth, I presume you could be any colour you choose to be?. Either way it's irrelevant, I'm white Jesus is white, that's just a natural thing, many African American church's depict him as black, are you going to go around telling them there's zero data that he was black?, what it smacks of, not just you but the other two clowns before, is racism, everyone seems more than happy to lay into "white" peoples gods,I mean that's understandable in a way, Jesus's teachings are a little more tolerant than Muhammads,I can't wait for a Muslim to come on the forums and have a thread about the Koran, I hope you lot will be just as vitriolic!!, But I think alas you'll be slightly more cowardice on that front, in fact I'll bet a bunch of you(especially Spiderman) even sided with them over the Danish and French satirical cartoons?,I hope I'm wrong,I hope Spiderman told them it's a load of bollocks and those cartoonists had every legal right to mock Islam and draw the prophet,I just doubt it though.

Bless you strawman man xx

I discount all human invented God concepts due to zero evidence

I care not if it is a white Muslim or a black Christian on a forum suggesting their belief is reflection of reality I will say I disagree

You have not articulated one reason why the subject of this thread the bible should be taken seriously and I clearly said I think the whole of the Islamic religion is based upon this book I also include all Muslims

Make a note however I make no judgment about the personality of any of those who do belive regardless of race or colour and of course I'm including Jews who from my objective atheist perspective are so similar to Muslims in its Base belief and doctrine that I don't pedantically differentiate?
