[QUOTE="saywhat?, post: 2122257, member: 554367"] but there is nothing in the bible that seems true to me other than the common sense respectful way of living your life. aka: the golden rule. thats really all that thick *** cheap papered book says away from the stories of random occurances, that are SAID to happen. History is based on facts and proven happenings, correct? If this is so, how can you look at the bible as being even a "hstorical half-truth". your right about other religions but it seems like you said...they follow the same general "there is a higher power so we need to live FOR it. not BY the general "be nice" rule. They just throw there own mix on things (not eat beef, pray 5 times a day or whatever it may be.) When it comes down to it, all religions are is old stories. Its like something you believe but its so old you were never there to witness it. Like I personally think that I would be better off in the 50's making shit with my hands, driving a 29 ford chop top and a flat head, but thats my BELIEF. I hate all these "machines" that are building things for us, it seems as though people have no skills anymore for the most part, nothing is hand made. That being said...I dont and never WILL KNOW if I would of been better off in that time period because well....I will never experience it, or see it, same goes for religion. People say they have "seen god" but all that shit is, is that they had a good day and something great happened to them. [/QUOTE]
