wow this is interesting. not saying i agree, with all the honors there are for books and whatnot. as a religious person i hope this passes.. i bet this gets heated...

basically Paul Broun is hoping/trying to get 2009 as the Year of The Bible since it was an integral document in the founding of the US

Glencoe... have you made a post that hasn't called for a thread to be locked? Shut up. Seriously.

I don't really care if it's the year of the Bible. If Al Stewart can make a year the Year of the Cat, then these guys can do whatever the hell they want to. I couldn't care less.

In a matter of fact, no I have not. I haven't even made a thread. You are the one that probably has been told that yours should be locked. I haven't been told to have one of my threads to be locked because I have not made a thread.

There is a difference between post and thread. You've posted 3 times, spamming and calling for a lock. STFU.

Dude. You have 5 posts now. If you have something intelligent to say, then say it. But don't post in every thread that it should be locked. You're spamming and being an annoyance.

Also, learn the definition of post and thread.

I think it's appropriate.

The Bible is one of the most important books in Western Literature. Don't take that to mean that I think it's true.

I agree with Hidden Distance. It is a very important book... but that doesn't mean I have to believe everything in it. If they do so, I think they should put it at that angle.

Ah me too! I think the morals that the bible teaches are still worth mentioning.

I think it is ok the bible is very important and has good morals (...for me too ignore <dang it&gt and to be honest it was Darwon month a few months ago no one noticed. for all the bible loving people they can celebrate for a year (or whatever) for those who don;t like it it shouldn't be hard to ignore.

Dang it. Yes Darwin. It was the 200th anniversary of his birth on the 12th February so a month or so was dedicated to him.

ahh, sniped

But yea, I agree, The bible does seem a bit false, but it is the morals that are taught from it that matter.
