I'll take your word for it because I'm not trying to convert you or be converted.

I won't be trying that whale thing either...

religion and the bible are a joke

 

[hypebeast mcstreetwear]

The Bible for the most part (IMO) are just stories aka examples and situations that blueprint how we all should conduct ourselves while on this Earth.

 

[Bonafide]

Religion is all man made.

Believe what you want to believe in

 

[murdamoork23]

Faith and religion are not the same thing.

ive never seriously questioned it, i guess i got to do some more reading

 

[razzle dazzle]

I believe in God. I believe in the Word of God, which is the Bible. There is nothing anyone can do that will change my beliefs, but that's just me. As aChristian point of view, I would say no, the Bible is not a lie.

However, everyone on this planet is different, with different point of views. I think in the end it all goes down to experience through faith. I'veexperienced the grace of the Lord, and therefore I am a believer. Of course, this does not apply to everyone.

It shouldn't be taken literally. It's more of a guide to live you life, it's what you make it to be really. Religion is all well and good as longas you're not hurting anyone.

Let's say you break all of the commandments.Look at what kind of trouble you bring to yourself and others.

I don't need a book to know my morals and to tell me that adultery, stealing, and murder are wrong.

Practice what you want, but I personally don't want to invest my time into something so mysterious and unproven.

That's exactly how I feel, but my GF is a die-hard Christian

.... I dont think its so bad to follow your life by the book if you choose, but when you start to put "pastors" and "mentors" wordsbefore those who have ACTUALLY been there for you for YEARS, thats where "religion loses me"

I read the bible with my neice sometimes, she likes fairy tales. It's a book of stories and poems where you can learn a lesson not a history textbook.

I don't think the bible is a lie but I doubt NT is going to have the answers to the Bible or the answers you are looking for.

 

[beallsfinest]

The Bible is just fabrication and exagerration. I just don't believe any of that...its not possible after all this time and with so many different peoplewriting and putting their hands on it that it has stayed true. No way.

co sign, the bible is an allegory, you dont just read you have to go a little further than that to truly understand its meaning. The bible is abeautiful thing when you are able to appreciate it past just the words on paper.
