I see. It's a good thing you have faith. Must save you a lot of $$$
on doctor bills and prescriptions and the like.
Anyway, let's take the example of Joseph's father.
In Matthew, it says that Jacob (A) was the father of Joseph.
Oh! But in Luke it says that Heli (non-A) was the father of Joseph.
So you're believing that A =3D non-A. Which makes me wonder if you've
ever successfully completed a course in basic arithmetic.
Now, it COULD be true that Joseph had two daddies. Jacob and Heli
might have been Lovers, raising Joseph. This would make sense because
Joseph was clearly a liberal -- he helped out an unmarried pregnant
**** named Mary by marrying her so she wouldn't be killed for her
whoredom!
Otherwise, though, one of the statements must be false. And if one of
the statements is false, that means that your Bible is not inerrant.

He loves the Homos. That's why he named humans "homo sapiens".
He had only one Son -- Jesus -- who turned out to be Gay (VERY gay as
we find out: he loved man-sweat, wore dresses and hung out with a pre-
op tranny named "Mary") and God loved Jesus anyway and Jesus is in
Heaven, still Gay and Unmarried and having Holy Dalliances with the
Angels.

There doesn't appear to be a whole lot of truth in that book, to be
honest with you, but there is some! I mean, we all know that the sun
revolves around the earth (which is immovable, about 6,000 years old,
has four corners and stands on pillars)

Why can't ya just do that once and let it rest?

Nobody else seems to concur with the position that you are a better
person. And if you are, it would cause endless nightmares trying to
picture how you were before you "understood" "His" "revelations".

CORRECTIONS: There were no saints and there is no evidence of
"Divine" inspiration, unless by "Divine" you mean "Mythological and
Error-Filled".

"Inspire" is a strange word, isn't it?
He either wrote it or he didn't. If he sent his message through
fallible man, then it's His own fault that the Bible is as ****ed up
as it is.
> Just look at all the fulfilled prophecy's in it.
You mean like THIS one?:
Isaiah 19:5-7
And the waters of the Nile will be dried up, and the river will be
parched and dry; and its canal will become foul, and the branches of
Egypt's Nile will diminish and dry up, reeds and rushes will rot away.
There will be bare places by the Nile, on the brink of the Nile, and
all that is sown by the Nile will dry up, be driven away, and be no
more.
And THIS one?:
Isaiah 17:1-2
An oracle concerning Damascus. See, Damascus will cease to be a city,
and will become a heap of ruins. Her towns will be deserted forever
And how 'bout THIS one?:
Ezekiel 26:7-14
For thus says the Lord: "Behold I will bring upon Tyre from the north
Nebuchadnezzar of Babylon, king of kings, with horses and chariots,
and with horsemen and a hosts of many soldiers. He will slay with the
sword your daughters on the mainland; he will set up a seige wall
against you. He will direct the shock of his battering rams against
your walls, and with his axes he will break down your towers...With
the hoofs os his horses he will trample all your streets; he will slay
your people with the sword and your mighty pillar will fall to the
ground...they will break down your walls and destroy your pleasant
houses... I will make you a bare rock...you shall never be rebuilt,
for I have spoken," says the Lord God.

Nobody's ever called me "lukewarm". I'm Scotty the Hotty, and I'm
clearly going directly to Heaven.

I'm going straight to Heaven, as you indicate above. Gonna hang with
my bro', Gay Jesus. I'll probably put him on my "lap" after I have
him brush his teeth and give him a good scrubbing down.

He's not very good at time management, then. Big waste of time if one
is omniscient and already knows the outcome. It's rather like knowing
in advance that you've won a backgammon game, but playing the game
anyway, when you could have started a new one.

I'm pretty sure I read somewhere that deals can be struck with the
Devil, so it might not be all that bad Downtown. That's where all the
fun people are going, ya know.

Doesn't he already know who is faithful and obedient? Or is he not
omniscient?
