Then again, only a fraction of the time has passed in comparison too. Fact is the COS is growing and is the only "new" religion to be formally created during the twentieth century.

That of course is discounting the Church of the Chickenhawk. . . :razz: :biggrin:

Ignorance and fanaticism are ravenous. They require constant feeding.

I simply do not believe that MAN was smart enough to design a book as powerful as the Bible, with continuty that it has, from book to book, without a divine intervention.
I've read the Bible. I've also read the Bhagavad  Gita and the Upanishads. And the Illiad and Odyssey. (in translation, I confess.) The Bible is not the runaway winner either in style or content. The fact that it is familiar to you does not automatically make it the most inspiring collection of short stories ever written.

I believe hank would be right, if it weren't for the fact that everything about the deity in the bible is laced with the frailties of humans; jealousy, vanity, dishonesty, and the hideous rape and murder of children.  Is that the divinely inspired continuity that hank refers to?

LMAO!  Like you ever read a book.   :razz:
Arguing with Christians is like playing chess with a pigeon.  No matter how good I am at chess, the pigeon is just going to knock over the pieces, shit on the board and strut around like it's victorious.

The truth is slow, but relentless. Over time it becomes irresistible.

Because you didn't mention them when you were assigning the editorship to Divine Intervention. Otherwise, you would surely have mentioned them, because frankly Henry, the editing job of the Bible sucks.

And you are bragging about that? What kind of person would steal a Bible? Why would they have to? All they have to do is ask Gideon for one.

National Enquirer and Star Magazine sell quite well too. Does that make them factual?

Nothing in the book your imagination can't put there.  BTW: if you want to live in "one nation under god", move to Iran.
