Preacher tells non-believer to get right with "God" or he's going to Hell! Non-believer buys Bible for $60! "God" needs 10% of his paycheck! If he doesn't give his money to "God", he's going to Hell for being greedy! So, He gives "God" his money in the offering (along with many others) and the preacher is somehow able to afford a $1,000 suit, very expensive jewelry, a muti-million dollar home, a $100,000 car, a private jet, ect... If I didn't know any better, I'd say the non-believer just got duped! Churches don't pay taxes or bills, but for some reason they always need money! Hmmm...

Oh, and by the way let's not forget how rediculous the stories are in the Bible!
How did Adam and Eve's children breed without having slow children?
How did Jonah breathe, eat, drink water and not get digested while inside the whale for 3 days?
How did Noah fit two of each of the millions of species of animals inside 1 big boat?
How did the animals not kill each other while inside the ark?

How could somebody possibly worship a being who is quick to send them to Hell for doing just about anything? How could somebody worship a being who is ok with slavery? How could somebody worship a being who said that if a woman is Molested and nobody witnesses it, she is to marry the Molester or be stoned to death?

Religion is bullshite and you have to be in denial to believe in it! I was a christian for 22 years, then I put the pieces together and realized it's all about scaring people into giving the preachers their money! Funny how the Bible is the #1. best selling book in the world and it's damn expensive too! Don't forget the preachers who are constantly wanting you to buy their $75 book and their $150 prayer package!

I am so sad for you and your views, it is obvious you are locked into disbelief through hatred and not actual knowledge. I will try to answer your points, although I doubt you will acknowledge them....

How did Adam and Eve breed without having slow children?

To answer your horribly put question, there was no admonishment against marrying immediate relations until God put it forth in Exodus. Here is the reason. When Adam and Eve were created they were perfection. There was no genetic problems or mutations. But after Adam's sin introduced death and imperfection, as we got further and further from perfection and the imperfections took over, it caused issues in genetic development. They HAD to reproduce together because there were no others to do so. This was no issue until the point where the genetic issues because too great to have proper offspring at which point God made it wrong by command. It is simply a matter of flaw growing worse over centuries. But Adam and Eve's children were fine.

Jonah - Anyone under God's protection can overcome any obstacle.

Noah - You do not know how many animals there were before the flood. Also it says nothing about species, it says KIND...for example...there may be hundreds of species of dog, but they are all DOGS. Secondly, he would have put young animals, nowhere near fully grown on the ark...if you are going to repopulate animals you do not want old animals, you want young animals with full lives ahead of them to reproduce to the fullest. You also obviously don' know your scripture because it was not two of every kind, there were seven pairs of clean kinds and one pair of unclean. Even with these inflated numbers, by standard of young juvenile animals, there would have been MORE than enough room for all kinds to be included.

The animals inside the ark did not kill, once again because you do not know scripture....animals were vegetarian, as was man, until God commanded that meat would be consumed AFTER the flood. Animals are subject to God as are we.

As for the rest.....God is not quick to send anyone to hell....it is a choice that WE make. We are told what we can and cannot do...it is WE who choose to ignore. If you had children, would you allow them to ignore your rules and then do nothing about it when they blatantly defy you? If so I would venture to say you are a horrible parent.

Slavery...you do not realize you are approaching this with YOUR mindset and not God's. Because you feel something is wrong does not mean it IS wrong. God may have a purpose for slavery we know nothing about and it is egotism to assume we can understand Him.

YES...many pastors, especially televangelists are scamming and out for money and it RUINS the ideals of Christianity. But that is not how ALL are and that is not how Christianity is based. Again you are blinded by hatred rather than open to understand. I offer for you the true word from the original Greek, not a translation like the KJV.

2 Corinthians 4:4 - "In whom the god of this, the age, has blinded the minds of the unbelieving so as not to beam forth the glory of the gospel of Christ, who is the image of God."

Stop looking to MEN for how Christianity works and look to Christ who is the example of how it is. God bless you and I hope you can someday see through the veil of darkness put upon you.
