what is a bible?

[recursivelyenumerable]

in my opinion
a bible, is a book that says stuff about god or whatever.

I don't understand that post. Don't posts normally have letters and words in them? Your post didn't meet my expectations and didn't feel natural or familiar or intuitive for me.

well, revelations was written in code, so that counts as a secret

That's a secret external to the Bible, Oscar.
The Holy Trinity isn't a secret; it's just incoherent.

I am trying to find that particular verse where is that exactly?

[Great Rumbler]

no, really

[Damian79]

have you tried the book of shut the fuck up, verse you're a goddam distinguished mentally-challenged fellow?  i think it's the second line.

not getting into a serious religious discussion, spent 15 years of my life hearing the weekly spiel, you're free to believe what you want, even if i think it's the equivalent of being a grown man who believes in santa claus and gets very prickly when others think it's silly

Why are you getting angry?  It is just a question.  It is alright if you made it up.  No need to get angry dude.

[Atramental]

[Damian79]

you got me, the line "if anyone shows up claiming to be god, fucking kill him, i am the only god, assholes" does not appear in the bible exactly as written.

i'm getting angry because you're being pedantic and pretending the point isn't there, and i've dealt with that shit far too often to not have a hair trigger for it.

I wasnt being pedantic, it was a legit question.  The if anyone claims to be god thing started in the Talmud according the the wiki which was made around the same time because of all these people coming and saying they are god.  I dunno if there is an earlier verse that says it though.

[Damian79]

Well he skips that issue by claiming he is the same god, not a different god like that text says.

[Huff]

no one wants to or will get into a serious discussion about the bible so just fucking leave it

Kk. Fair enough.

What about Deuteronomy 4:6?
http://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Deuteronomy+6%3A4&version=NIV

It doesn't say god is 3 in 1. It just says he's 1.

edit: I'm bailing after this post. I've got shit to do.

[Human Snorenado]

You can't seriously discuss religion with people in a logical manner, because eventually they're going to say "but I believe this" and that's when it's over.

Wow I've never seen you like this on the matters of theology.

I think you can. You just have to go at it the right way. Be open minded and talk nicely. Don't be mean. Comedy also helps.

Yep, thats right.  Pretty much what my church teaches.  Anyway lets leave it at that.

What your church teaches kinda isn't relevant and in no way has anything to do with Oscar's point. His point is that Christians accept the OT as true, but the god in the OT is prideful and jealous and says to never worship any other gods. Some guy comes around and says he's the SON of God and Christians accept it despite God saying to do otherwise in the OT.

The fact the entire religion is based around this guy is funny.

I think you should tackle it in another manner. A lot of "believers" are battered wives with Stockholm. They believe in belief. Of course it depends on the person. If someone were more nice about it and picked holes in my logic and history rather than laughing I would have accepted and lived with the being an atheist far sooner than I did. But when there is a big stigma against non belief and you're being laughed at, it doesn't help anyone.
