[QUOTE=Zeke129;17777085]Why do we care what the bible truly says? Religion is what the human mind makes of it. There is no "accurate" or "inaccurate" when it comes to fiction.[/QUOTE] There is to religious people.

This is like saying that all the gibberish these people have followed, was the WRONG gibberish till now. Well atleast all of them Gibberish believers know the right gibberish. Doesn't change a singe thing on earth except for them gibberish lovers.
[QUOTE=Doriol;17777100]you don't know [B]what religion is[/B] gg[/QUOTE] Religion is a belief in some truth without any evidence to support that truth. Am I correct?

[QUOTE=Doriol;17777183]fixed that for you please invest in a dictionary[/QUOTE] Then what's religion?
There was more than one translation. It was a process. From Hebrew to Aramaic From Aramaic to Latin From Latin to modern languages. Hebrew might not translate perfectly to English, but it does a good job to Aramaic.
[QUOTE=Kybalt;17777174]Do tell.[/QUOTE] just because you claim to be an atheist doesn't mean you're a supreme being and christians are ants by the way, you're probably an antitheist, not an atheist as are most people on this forum
Religion's claim: There is a God. Religion's backup: God said so/nothing. Atheist's claim: There is no God. Atheist's backup: nothing. There is no definative proof or disproof of the being known as "God"
I still believe in a god, and religion =/= creationism.

Okay, I might be against the idea of a deity because of the problems religion causes in today's world and because there is no logical reason for a deity to exist. Call me an atheist or antitheist, doesn't matter.

I just leave you guys to your stuff as long as you leave me to mine. You probably mean [I]Anti-[B]A[/B]theists[/I]
Nobody's right.
[QUOTE=Doriol;17777351]you didn't fix anything[/QUOTE] Yeah, I did. I used the word "religion" as a label for faith in god/adherence to Christianity (which is the topic here), which was wrong.
Fuckin' great, this actually works in favor of creationists because now they can say "yeah, the earth actually IS 4.5 billion years old, it's just that god showed up around 10,000 years ago." Which has it's own problems, but at least is more feasible than fucking "everything was created from nothing around 10,000 years ago."
I'm not really sure what the point of putting labels on peoples beliefs is. It is illogical for there to be a god. Whatever you want to call this proposition, go ahead, but it isn't an argument. It's Ad hominem at best. [editline]01:37PM[/editline] [QUOTE=SantanaDVX;17777367]Nobody's right.[/QUOTE] No I'm pretty damn sure someone has to be right.
I bet the guy that translated the Bible long ago just decided to do that for shits and giggles.

We're attacking the logic behind the beliefs.
[QUOTE=Van-man;17774333]And you get your own 72 virgins. I mean Hot Damn, who doesn't want their own 72 hot babes to screw when they're dead.[/QUOTE] it didn't say they were female. And if they were female, it didn't say they'd be hot. Or if you are gay, who cares, you would be stoned to death and get nothing.

And it's not logical to deny that there is. There's just no damned evidence for either argument, so there's no fucking point in arguing. We just don't fucking know.
