Anonymous asked: Only since the 19th century, and primarily in the United States have people actually begun to take Genesis "literally". Even the most Orthodox Jews do not. The Catholic church officially does not. People have lived with, and believed in, Genesis for almost 3,000 years without interpreting it in the way that American Protestant Fundamentalists do. Don't look to them for your...
dazzledbycarrie asked: This is true. But once you reach the New Testement, it says that we are not bound to the Old Testement. Plus, the Bible makes it clear that the Bible is the whole Holy book, and the Mormons don't believe that. (Obviously because they have the Book of Mormon LOL). But okay, I see where you are coming from having read through the first five books. On a side note, how did you feel about...

Genesis Chapter 5: An Atheist's Notes
5: And all the days that Adam lived were nine hundred and thirty years: and he died.
So we have a question for my last question, but this doesn’t fit scientifically. Even if this all did happen six thousand years ago, life expectancy was in the high teens to the low twenties. And Adam lived to be 130?! Do people really take this stuff literally?!
Notes on the rest of...

Genesis Chapter 4: An Atheist's Notes
3-5: And in process of time it came to pass, that Cain brought of the fruit of the ground an offering unto the Lord. And Abel, he also brought of the firstlings of his flock and of the fat thereof. And the Lord had respect unto Abel and to his offering: But unto Cain and to his offering he had not respect. And Cain was very wroth, and his countenance fell.
Cain is a tiller of the ground, and...

Genesis Chapter 3: An Atheist's Notes
4-5: And the serpent said unto the woman, Ye shall not surely die: For God doth know that in the day ye eat thereof, then your eyes shall be opened, and ye shall be as gods, knowing good and evil.
Christians claim that the serpent deceived Eve and convinced her to eat of the tree? Was he not telling the truth? God himself named the tree “The Tree of the Knowledge of Good and...

Genesis Chapter 2: An Atheist's Notes
3: And God blessed the seventh day, and sanctified it: because that in it he had rested from all his work which God created and made.
Those Christians that do not posit that the universe was created in 6 24-hour days must then identify the actual time it took to create the universe to calculate when the Sabbath day shall be observed. If it took 12 billion years to create the ...

Genesis Chapter 1: An Atheist's Notes
20-22: And God said, Let the waters bring forth abundantly the moving creature that hath life, and fowl that may fly above the earth in the open firmament of heaven. And God creates great whales, and every living creatures that moveth, which the waters brought forth abundantly, after their ind, and every winged fowl after his kind: and God saw that it was good. And God blessed them, saying, Be...

‘Uh, like, scientists can’t explain how teeth evolved, so like, yeah, evolution is totally a lie.’
God. More plausible than teeth.
I just don’t understand how you can think that it’s too unlikely for teeth to have evolved over many millions of years but some transcendental, omniscient,…
sometimessassycontrasts asked: Andrew, I just wanted to tell you something. Tonight I was watching Transcendent Man with a group of Catholic people and there was this one stupid bitch who wouldn't shut up about it and how it went against 'God's plan' and then went on to spout very inaccurate and stupid information about Planned Parenthood, effectively pissing me off. Unfortunately I'm a weed lightweight...
