It should be noted as well that homosexuality was practiced and accepted in every ancient civilization before the creation of that collection of [censored] tails known as the bible. It should also be further noted that notwithstanding what that collection of [censored] tales instructs about homosexuality and the righteousness of monogamy/marraige, the only point of was for primogeniture.
WTF??!!?? Why does the word f a i r y have to be censored? Last I checked its not one of those nasty four letter words. Ohh wait a minute.... Is that really keith's last name? That explains a lot!

Well John, since I wasn't around when they were threading those stories together, I can't say I have firsthand knowledge to give you any proof. That being said, I would point out that my position is strongly supported by how one has to suspend disbelief to have any confidence that any of the occurrences in the bible actually happened. Just like in a f a i r y tale.
For instance I figure I have exact same odds of seeing a guy who was not only crucified, but stuck with a spear for good measure coming back to life, as I do a wooden marionette coming to life. Those odds are a big zero.
The same exact odds that I have of either coming across a burning bush, communicating how I should behave or a wolf with an amazing ability to communicate in human language with me. Again, those odds are zero.
Which, incidentally are the same exact odds of me meeting a fellow who can instantly turn water into wine or a gnome-like fellow spinning gold from hay.
In these examples, if the first premise is possible, then so is the other. But alas, they all are not.

Where do you think your ability to think and have a conscience come from?

From 6 million years of human evolution including eating cooked meat to grow the human brain.
Since I have no problem answering your questions, kindly answer mine.
If every parable in the bible is true, then would not the same hold true for the Quran? Or Greek mythology for that matter?

They have no witnesses. And parables are stories Jesus told to make a point about His Truth from God.
You ever read The New Testament, nca?

Just like in a f a i r y tale.... Maybe so, but one truth, that is self-evident and endowed by your creator, is that you have the right to advertise your goal to ruin others rights. Thank you for politely and calmly explaining the foolishness of kidding oneself about finding common ground with someone like you on all not some of the hurdles the US faces.

nca225 this isnt the place, go to some other site to spin anti religion
If you want to explain what website is focused on your religious views go for it, few will follow you there.
Like so many who shallowly reason they fail to account for what they cant explain
I am still clinging to my bible and my guns

If you're bent on making fun of words, maybe you're too dumb to benefit from the protections afforded by judeo-christian based laws. Just imagine, if you believe what you intolerantly joke about, you'd be forced to wear a burka and you wouldn't get that tingle up your leg from it any more.
