The Holy Bible is not a book to be lightly cast aside...

..Throw it as hard and as far away as you possibly can. It is poison.

You're right. It's a load of rubbish, there are much better things to read.

@NortiusMaximus There is no other book that can make you successful!

Entwistle · 56-60, M

@Carazaa If you sell it to stupid people it can make you very successful financially.

That are lots of books that are far more useful for achieving success in life. The bible wouldn't have been any use when I was at university.

@NortiusMaximus My friend, a Christian went to the same university as I when she was young. She tithed her money and starved most of the time she told me. Now she is a millionaire! God rewards us! He rewards me as you can tell with my 4 th post.

@Carazaa Good for her. The Atheists and members of other religions I was at university with are also doing very well for themselves, with no help from your god at all.

A lot of Christians are destitute - even the church is always on the scrounge for money. I suppose your god has turned his back on them because they don't believe strongly enough.

@NortiusMaximus Yes God disciplines us if we fall away!

NortiusMaximus · M

@Carazaa As others have said, your god is a narcissist - or would be if it existed. Of course, Atheists don't have to worry about falling away from their god because they don't have one. They do very well for themselves by their own efforts.

@NortiusMaximus God is Holy and no one can survive without Gods help; Not for a minute!😏

NortiusMaximus · M

@Carazaa The fact that those I know and I have not only survived but have being doing very well for ourselves for several decades, without your god's help, proves your assertion wrong.

Entwistle · 56-60, M

@Carazaa God is keeping Satan alive then?

Carazaa · F

@Entwistle Yes he is! God has a specific time for Satan to deceive those who reject God until his time is up!

NortiusMaximus · M

@Entwistle The whole christian god mythology needs Satan as a scapegoat for everything that goes wrong. It's funny how, according to the mythology, this "almighty god's" plans were foiled by Satan and a mere woman.

n.b. I say "mere woman" because christianity views women as inferior. That [b]is not[/b] a view I subscribe to.

Good point. Their so-called "almighty god" can't even support himself! 🤣
