Since I have joined Armorgams . . .I see a lot of Atheists and their threads about why people believe in God etc . . . I wanted to start a thread about the bible and christianity.
The purpose of this thread is to debate a different book of the bible each week. We will discuss lessons, morals, and different stories.
We will have friendly debates. Please . . . if you are atheist or of other beliefs . . . you may discuss in this thread, just PLEASE no fighting, flaming, spamming, trolling . . . etc
This week we will begin from the beginning . . . .Genesis
I'm absolutely aware that it was his stepsister.. and it doesn't make it better =P
I know it is messed up in today's standards but not back then.
Wouldn't that make the book.. out of date or irrelevant to modern times?
He did not have any form of manic depressive schizophrenia.
I don't think all of the Old Testament is irrelevant. There's still a lot of hidden wisdom there. Just need to go looking for it. Like in a lot of wars commanders have gotten succesful strategies from biblical battles, and there are stories that set good examples on how to behave. Some of it though, like not to wear clothes made of different blends, yeah thats a bit outdated.
it doesn't apply anymore.
The new testament is what we must live by.
By the way thisnotanalt . . . everything I have been saying has come from the bible. You want links? Look up the Gap theory on google. That will explain the millions of years span between God's days. Everything else at the moment . . . look it up in the Bible.
I'm not going to do your research for you - and also, where in the Bible does it say Moses does not have manic depressive schizophrenia?
Where in the Bible does it say not to care about the Old Testament?
And also. . .your reply doesn't argue any of my points in the slightest - we're debating, so debate. OR else I'll assume you've conceded.
Genesis was in the Old Testament, snazzy. . . .
There's still a lot of hidden wisdom there
It's almost 2 millenia old. As a result.. it is quite dated as well.
I understand fully that the Genesis is in the Old testament.
It maybe "dated" but it hasn't faded has it? If it has been around this long, don't you think it will be around for another 2 millenia?
Where in the Bible does it say not to care about the Old Testament?
Then why do you contradict yourself and follow it?
The Old Testament will be too. They're both printed as one book.
What do you mean? I haven't said that Genesis was in the New testament.
Don't put words in my mouth.
I said we should not follow its principles.
When I said "it" I was referring to the whole Bible.
Genesis is in the New Testament, and you believe Genesis.
so we should not follow what it teaches (the morals, ie the stuff that actually matters, the point to the stories) but we should believe all the crazy stories like Adam & Eve? Makes no sense.
Genesis is in the Old Testament . . . You thought I said it was in the New Testament. So you are mistaken my friend.
