More people need to speak out
quote:
As a moral guide, the bible isn't worth the paper it's printed on! It's time more thinking people started standing up and saying so!
Most people in this country are already saying that the Bible is a worthless document that is wasting valuable paper resources. Just look at the lifestyles of the ones who are carrying them around on Sunday. Do you really think they believe what it says in those pages? Hardly. So even though they aren't throwing them down on the sidewalks and pissing on the pages, they ARE saying it's a worthless document. You've already won.
So what is it that you really want? I think you want to stamp out all reference to a grand design and make it a punishable crime because such a reference offends your lifestyle. That makes sence to me because your original quote is non-applicable when you observe our post-christian society in this country.
Our society is like a callander and Biblical morality is the water that is leaking out the bottom and the holes represent atheistic interpretation of law. You are screaming because you still see some water in the callander but just wait a minute because it's almost all gone. It certainly is dissappearing. If I were a homosexual I'd be more excited about what is going to replace the water then fretting about trying to make the holes bigger.
I'd put gold in the callander becaue it won't leak out the holes. Since Biblical morality is worthless, what would homosexual morality look like since it would be better? Or is the best social gold -no morality and social constraints at all? The Bible is very constraining to most.
