[quote user="Centerline"]Well, no I don't know the Bible well enough to dig that particular Psalm up out of my head. I just learned someone printed it on bumperstickers.... imagine that, who would have thunk it? Ahh, if only I had your unimaginable, unattainable intellect and wisdom, your amazing faith in the religion of Darwin and the utter understanding of the Big Bang and then everything just magically coming together in a most incredible sequence of intelligent organization from

[quote user="Sushi_Biker"] [quote user="Damon"] The bible isn't meaningless gobbledygook. It just makes many claims we I now know to be completely wrong, and advocates a moral system that isn't compatible with civilized people. It's not nonsense, and I understand it just fine. It's just immoral and inaccurate. [/quote] Please restrict your denials to yourself unless you have a mouse in your pocket or something. [/quote] By "we" I don't mean you and

[quote user="Centerline"] You nailed it. I have no understanding whatsoever how it all came together..... but of course, you do. [/quote] You could read a few books and maybe visit a museum or a couple lectures or something, and then you wouldn't have to say that you have no idea about this stuff. No one has a comprehensive understanding, of course, but being clueless in the 21st century is kinda sad. [quote user="Centerline"] Wow, a moral system incompatible with civilization

You guys are really running with this "we" thing, even though I don't think anyone here is stupid enough to not understand what I meant. You're really grasping at straws here.

[quote user="Sushi_Biker"]If you wish to use "we" in the context of belonging to a group of people who share a common disbelief, then certainly.[/quote] That's not what I said. [quote user="Sushi_Biker"]However, I disagree that all religion being "nonsense" is part of the general body of human understanding and knowledge.[/quote] So do I, but no one ever said that, so it's not really relevant. [quote user="Sushi_Biker"]Although the number

[quote user="whitefeather"] Wasn't Darwin Catholic? [/quote] No, he was CoE (Church of England), and later agnostic. [quote user="whitefeather"] He just believed that we evolved from fish, monkies [/quote] No he didn't. [quote user="whitefeather"] but DNA proves him wrong, [/quote] Huh? [quote user="whitefeather"] As for praying for Obuma, yes, but not for lifting the *** up, but to clean house. Can one say that without the FBI reading these forum boards

[quote user="OldMan"] [quote user="Damon"] What about the very next line of the psalm you used to start off this thread: "may his children be fatherless and his wife a widow." Yep - real moral. Asking your invisible friend to murder people definitely has a place in civilized society. [/quote] I don't know the bible so I don't know the context this was pulled out of. Is the bible teaching this is what people should do or is it just relating a story of what someone

[quote user="Sushi_Biker"] Sigh...Must I, Damon? Nice backpeddle dude. Here you go, since you're having instant and selective amnesia: [quote user="Damon"]The bible isn't meaningless gobbledygook. It just makes many claims we now know to be completely wrong, and advocates a moral system that isn't compatible with civilized people.[/quote] [quote user="Damon"]By "we" I don't mean you and me. I mean that the inaccurate and contradictory nature

[quote user="Meatball"] LOL, we even managed to sqeeze Hitler into this thread! He's really been getting around lately! [/quote] Godwin was right .

[quote user="Sushi_Biker"] Damon, you should understand that accuracy in communication is a vital part of getting your point across and making a persuasive arguement. You make sweeping generalizations, criticize others for quote mining, but then fight back when people do it to you, you are fundamentally incapable of admitting an error while just telling everyone else that their opinions are wrong, or that the facts they present are false. [/quote] I rephrased it for you earlier, and you're
