OFFICIAL: Biblical/Theology Discussion thread

Thump;736151; said:
Seen some very interesting biblical discussions on here and thought this may be a good place to centralize them.

Questions for skeptics:

Never mind finding fault with this or that.

1. What does the bible tell you about human nature that is provably false?
2. What does the bible say (in EVERY original manuscript you cite, not just selective ones) that is not factual?
3. What does the bible tell you about your eternal destiny that it fails to equip you for?


4. How long did it take science to catch up with the bible in regard to:
a. anesthesia for major surgery?​

b. the design of the moon as a secondary light source​

c. the composition of the human body?​

d. knowledge of coagulation of the blood in newborn males?​

e. the fact that matter consists of elements that the naked eye cannot see?​

Just a couple of comments:

1. What if anything that can be said about human nature by anyone at any time can be proven false?

2. The ancient Greeks knew a lots of the stuff you mention in 4, and as far as I know didn't rely on the bible for that knowledge.

Bleed S&G,

Would you like to have a discussion about the origins of the Bible and other writings that come from Judeo-Christian individuals, or at least those partially influenced by it? If not, that is cool, but it is an interesting topic and would love to discuss it with you and anyone else who would like to join.

Thump,

I hope you don't mind, but I altered the title of the thread to include all discussions of God. Perhaps this can keep the other threads from being hijacked into this topic as often occurs.

1. "All men are pigs." "Wives who consent to intercourse with their husbanbs are submitting to rape." "Men who stand to pee do so to show their dominance over women." You can thank your local feminazi for those zingers. All regarding human nature. All driven by craven stupidity and hatred for men.

2. As I understand Greek thinking, matter consisted of something like earth, wind, and fire. All observable or with sensible effects. I am not aware of any ancient culture or philosophy that stipulated matter consists of things unseen. Not saying there aren't any, but that I am unaware of them if there are any.
