The problem I have when a nutter says something like this, is how the heck to they know that? It doesn't mention the dinosaurs in the book so how would a jehovah know that's what god did?

My bible has a 100 day reading plan in it to help you along, but it's only got about 1400 pages, if it took me that long to read that many pages, it can't be a very gripping read.

And how come the world is full of missionaries and priests etc all trying to convert the unbelievers, yet the atheists don't have a simular program to try and unconvert the converted. Seems all a bit one sided to me.

I think I need to start searching for a distinguishing birth mark then. Then create an army of the sane.

Has anyone seen the Ricky Gervais standup 'Animals'? We have it on DVD, we've watched it dozens of times and it is still hilarious - there is a whole section on the bible, it's very funny.

(If you didn't like the office - which i didn't - , this is still funny. Well worth a watch, especially with some mates and a few bottles of beer/wine!)

That's brilliant. Not seen it before, will have to get the DVD. One bit of advice for anyone else who's not seen it, don't be drinking coffee whilst watching :eek::rofl:

It's superb. He did another stand-up called Politics which is also worth a look, but doesn't quite hit the mark like Animals does.

P.S. They're available for download on the usual sites.

This book perfectly sums up my personal opinions on the subject.:D So very true.

Also love this comment on that Amazon link above - which so perfectly illustrates much of the problem in itself ...:rofl:

short hand for the first bit:-

God created the earth the fish light etc and had a rest on Sunday

He made Eden and Adam and eve, the ONLY 2 humans on the earth

After a bit of rumpy Eve gave birth in agony because she eat the apple to
Cain and Able, 2 brothers (both boys) No other children.....

THEN Genesis Chapter 7...

"Cain and his wife had a son and named him Enoch"

ALSO Genesis Chapter 4 Verse 15....

(God speaking to the cast out Cain)

"But the Lord Answered, No, If anyone kills you seven lives will be taken in revenge"

The book is just full of rubbish, Where did all the other people come from, where did the wife of Cain come from. As for killing 7 in revenge, didn't he go on to say "Thou shalt not kill". Lead by example I say.....

Here endeth the reading, Life in Oz is so interesting I'm reading the bible for entertainment!
