FICTION?? I'm talking about THE BIBLE.
They should of made it into a trilogy.
>why isn't the bible good enough?
The fuck are you talking about?
...
Well, if the Koran's the sequel than maybe the book fo Mormon is the 3rd one. You're a stupid dick. The Bible needs no successor, it is the word of God.
The Bible is a bunch of books combined into one you idiot.
>The Bible needs no successor, it is the word of God.
Pretty sure it;s the word of a human, but whatever.
That's because you've never read it. It's wisdom transcends anything humans can produce or think up. This stuff was written down by humans but invented by God.
the paper's too rough, it chafes my asshole
>It's wisdom transcends anything humans can produce or think up.
Harry potter is more interesting.
Sheep herder’s guide to the galaxy
That's because Satan has blinded you to the light. Harry Potter is a sorcerer and that is evil and wicked and should be illegal 'cause God is our lawgiver. You need to get away from that Satanic crap and you'll see the truth.
Huh? The Bible is a guide to how to live forever in paradise on earth where there will be no wickedness 'cause God will destroy Satan and his demons and all the influences from them
Sounds more like you just want to tell every they are stupid "for not believing and thinking exactly like you"
gee I wonder who else in history has tried to do that, and how well it went for them...
It’s about as enlightening as I’d expect from a Bronze Age group of goatfuckers that didn’t know anything about the world around them.
How can satan blind anyone if he is bounded in hell? Man, your god can't even do that right.
Well, it IS stupid for not believing in the Bible. Clearly God is real and spells that out in the Bible itself for all of us to be delivered. He even sent Jesus Christ down here to nail in the point. It's so freakin' obvious that it can only be stupidity to not believe in God or the Bible. Romans 1:20
Satan isn't bound in hell yet. You'd know that if you read the Bible. Right now Satan is the ruler of this world and God will be sending him to hell in the near future.
>nail in the point
I bet a buddy of mine that I could come into Sup Forums & that NONE of you here could defeat my witnessing efforts. He said somebody would within 1/2 an hour and nobody has. So, I win. You all lose.
I was under the impression that satan was already in hell, wasn't he the first one to be sent down there? Seriously, your god can't even do that right, it's sad.
Doesn't seem like he is all powerful after all.
You can't argue against an idiot, because you'll just keep bringing up retarded non-points.
So I'll just call you a faggot and move on.
how do you know? were you there?
ok I'll bite,
what do you know about other religions? Have you even studied any other ones? and I don't mean reading the pamphlets you get from your church, I mean actually going to another religions church/temple and studied with the people who actually believe in it.
Because if you haven't then you truly don't know what any other religion is teaches. And in short it makes you look and sound as ignorant as the people you make fun of for not believing and thinking like you. You know... like Hilter and the KKK, and the neo nazis.. need I go on?
because it is full of stupidity, and flaws
that sounds like Jehovah Witness teachings
Few want to entertain some religious fuckwit. If god is real explain africa.
>It's wisdom transcends anything humans can produce or think up.
like say, the order of the creation of the universe for example?
we know stars formed first, then later after stars had created heavier elements through successive generations of star death we got planets like the earth, then billions of years till we got the plants and the animals and such.
how did genesis get it so wrong?
You're a Jehovah Witness, arent you. Or you have least studied with them.
The Bible is 100 percent written by men the half the books are named after the people who wrote them
No, just no one actually cares enough about your retarded ass.
Nowhere does the bible say he rules or is in Hell. He was cast down "to earth"
Correct. But also "inspired by God"
>niggers and aids
sons of cain
That's fine, but that still doesn't make god all powerful, or all loving.
Otherwise, there wouldn't be a satan.
You said god himself wrote you know how we treat people now who say they speak to god we sure as fuck don't worship their writings
I was under the impression that he loved all his children equally.
Unconditional love and what not.
Except it isn't actually unconditional, there are ten very specific conditions in there.
The concept of satan as the adversary mostly comes from Dante and Milton. The story was originally about a king's fall from god's grace, not about an ultimate evil.
Bible also loses points for retconning characters.
People who had nothing to do with cain's doings should be punished or let suffer?
The Bible is one of many books that is way to anthropomorphic to be anything but man's creation.
can you prove this?
Been translated too many times through too many languages and by people who would mistake, change, distort and warp it's meaning
I heard it was Ham's family line.

Where did OP go?
Everyone is sufficiently baited. Trevor's axiom is in full effect.
Jehovah was just one god in the Sumarian pantheon. It was his cult that eventually lifted him to the chief diety status, at least as far as they were concerned.
Isreal means "People of El", El being the chief of the sumarian pantheon. The jews were polytheistic before the cult of YAHWEH took over.
>He was cast down "to earth"
aka hell.
why do you think no one is happy, everyone is miserable, and anyone who resembles happiness, is only made so that they could experience even more misery than they could've otherwise
tl;dr earth and hell are the exact same thing
He posted a Jehovah Witness translation of the bible. Got called out for being a Jehovah Witness and realized that he shouldn't be on this site and has bailed.
>"Got smart"
Is this a troll? It should be "became smart." Or, better yet, "became intelligent." Fuck me.
he ascended into heaven
Christianity in a nutshell:
You suck. I suck. We all suck. There is a God who cannot be in the presence of sinners. In order for us to be sinless, something must take the wrath of God for us. The only entity capable of perfection is God himself, so he sent Jesus to die for us. By placing your faith in him, affirming that you believe His grace is enough to make you righteous, you are made holy and worthy of standing in the presence of the Creator.
If you want to know more, look up Matt Chandler, Paul Washer, and Jeff Lethco.
I believe this is likely. Do you have any reference points for further reading?
I've read the entire thing and grew up Church of Christ. It's horseshit, man. The whole story of Job is pretty fucked up. And Lot's daughters drugging and trying to rape him. And murdering the entire planet because "butt stuff is wrong." The whole book is absolutely retarded, bronze age mythology.
pick a hole
well, to be fair, i would probably murder the entire planet for wanting to have shit dick too.
The cannon version is pretty bland, but if you get into fanfics like the book of thomas it can be pretty interesting.
The proof of God is sunsets and squiggly trees? Pretty lame proof you have there.
It's just a book of threats and guidance for camel jockeys. Food hygiene and that sort of thing. Plus a load of female oppression. Then a load of controlling crap the Catholics added. Wise words for guiding stupid and ignorant people. Plus examples and threats of what would happen if you didn't do as you are told. So... slavery guide. Fuck the bible and all the mythical creatures. The difference between praying and not praying... nothing. Just keep handing money to your church you morons.
So essentially God got so mad at us that he killed himself.
Whats stopping ya?
You too can be as moral as yahweh. You just have to kill 7 billion people or so.
I'm looking for it. I was reading the shit out of this 3 weeks ago.
Basically the entire region was dominated by a sumarian concept of polytheism. El was chief among the gods (think Zeus, or Odin) and Yahweh was just one of the gods in the pantheon.
When you read about how a priest blessed the isrealites in the name of the "god most high" it's confusing why some non-jewish priest would perform blessings in the name of the jewish god. Then you learn that "God most high" is El-o-him and then you understand the yahweh was the patron diety of the jews, not the only god the early jews acknowledged. So it would make sense that someone outside of their tribes would bless them in the name of the leader of the pantheon.
There's a lot in there when you look at it in this new light.
Challenge accepted!
The problem is, Jesus was a communist.
kek
He was also gay.. Or atleast bi.
You ever hear the story of The Apostle Whom Jesus Loved?
dumb ass old book,
well written tho, beautifully so.
Just plain lies made up by helpless farmers to cheer up their children when they died of dysentery
If god exists, and he knows about everything (because he has unlimited power), he knows the future, and if he knows the future, he knows your every future decision, and because of that if god exists there is no free will.
And if free will didn't exist, Satan and Humans wouldn't do immoral things.
And the bible contradicts itself more than any book.
Because the pages are really thin and cut up my bunghole. Charmin is good enough.
He was also a virgin, You never hear of the appstle whom jesus loved who also loved him back.
this
I'm lazy as fuck.
if he were a nice guy he'd have another culling of the herd
the amount diseases he cleansed by destroying sodom and gamora was great
sadly humanity is fucking retarded and now more disease ridden than ever anyway.

I think we can all agree that the gray bound Bible's are far superior to the burgundy and black ones. Revised NWT 10/10
Because it relies on faith and faith isn’t something you just decide to have. You’ve either got it or not or you gain it through extreme or traumatic experiences.
The bible is over 800 pages long that little shit book doesn't even come close.
Can this be a JW thread. Would love to start daily threads on Sup Forums. I've been trying to now for a few weeks, to no avail. Would be nice to have somewhere to talk and find other Sup Forumsrothers
Because it was written for an audience of mostly goat farmers 2000 years ago, canon voted on by a bunch of men 400 years after the most important events, badly translated repeatedly, and mostly irrelevant except for the "love everyone" message of Jesus which is largely ignored by self professed Christians (who would more rightly be called Paulists).
And unless you read Hebrew and ancient Greek, you've never actually read the Bible.
Bible is roughly 1100 pages in length normally if you include both old and new testaments. And yes, the new world translation covers both in thier entirety
Agreed that the King James version of the Bible is in fact, a version.
But the new world translation is a solid translation (not version) of the original scriptures, keeping God's name Jehovah intact over 7000 times.
