On another forum, far far away. I just lost my cool.
This is not the first time I lost my cool. It all started because of the Bible. Yes, the Bible.
How can you call yourself a Christain and not have read atleast ENOUGH of it to hold a conversation about it. I just don't get it. This book is the foundation of your faith and you don't know it? When I was a child I read the Bible front to back and back to front because I wanted to know what was going on, was the preacher/sunday school teacher/parents really right, and to form my own opinion about it. In order for me to do this I needed.......
A bible
A dictionary
A bible dictionary
Encyclopedia
Maps
History books (Hebrew, ancient Middle East, etc.)
To many times I hear people say this/that/and chicken fat is in the Bible yet they who Christians can't back it up. To many Christians aren't verifing what is TOLD to them in church. They just nod their head and hit that Bible with a highlighter like they are doing something. As soon as you leave the church you are supposed to go back and verify what was told to you.
If I told you that Christians aren't supposed to eat rabbit you should be able to prove me wrong.....or right.
I seriously believe that some people say they are Christian simply because they mama told them they were.
