Does it say so and so lived for 800 years? Doesn't matter. Does it specifically deny dinosaurs existed? Doesn't matter. Are there gospels missing from the new testament? Doesn't matter. Was it assembled piecemeal hundreds of years after Jesus by some random dudes? Doesn't matter. Does the assembled collection contradict itself chronologically and factually? Doesn't matter. This is god's word given to us directly somehow! loving DEAL WITH IT. ALL OF IT.

theres this wacky goop made out of carbon inside every living thing that works like lego building instructions. the instructions that lead to crappy living things get destroyed and the ones that manage to stay around get to try to make copies of themselves, with varying levels of success. this process was given the name "evolution" because it really rolls off the tongue. hth, op

Your Dead Gay Son posted:I wonder what kind of hosed up fan fiction DIDNT make it into the bible This section is called the Apocrypha, and the last estimate I heard (from Nat. Geo. channel or something) put the Apocrypha at 100 times the amount of material that made it into the King James' Bible. Anyone who read the Book of Revelations knows it is "pretty iffy" so far as the word of God goes (either that or they are a serial killer) but Revelations is not in the Apocrypha just yet. And not all of the withheld writings are wacky Revelations caliber; some of it just conflicts slightly with other bits of the KJV. The Jews also have Books they leave out. According to some Apocrypha not only did Jesus know Judas was going to betray him, but actually it was Jesus' idea. So really Judas is a hero working with his buddy Jesus to prove that the corrupt Roman state can't stop a powerful idea. You can see firsthand the kind of stuff which was written in Biblical times, some of which was left out and some of which is just grocery lists or advertisements for prostitutes. Also, there is a podcast to get you interested: http://www.radiolab.org/story/91517-the-greatest-hits-of-ancient-garbage/ or the more direct route, if you can read ancient languages and feel like transcribing them to help a lazy university: http://www.ancientlives.org/?utm_source=Zooniverse%20Home&utm_medium=Web&utm_campaign=Homepage%20Catalogue (Feel free to take screen grabs since apparently Oxford is being an information-hogging bitch about wanting to publish any claims of discovery about their pile of ancient writings that they'd like your help transcribing.)

Voted Worst Mom posted:Basically. He didn't roll his eyes about liberals but about people who believe in evolution and the people in the church went "mmhmm!! Preach it pastor" That's a weird topic for a funeral. Reminds me of when I went to a wedding at a born again church in a strip mall, and it was like 80% about Jesus. The actual getting married part was like an afterthought.

The actual getting married part was like an afterthought. It's not so uncommon. I don't know how hard up for more tithing members in a congregation priests are, but I suspect pretty bad. I don't think I've been to a memorial service where the eternal Hellfires were not brought up. To me it seems disrespectful to the deceased and their loved ones. But then I dispense comfort and wit for free, so I don't know the details of attempting to run a brick and mortar business by preying on people's insecurities, problems, and hopelessness.

The actual getting married part was like an afterthought. Catholic weddings have the same 3 reading sessions that a normal mass does, they're typically 'love' orientated (like 'Song of Solomon' stuff without the nubile tits and sexing parts), on top of the 'marriage'. I've been at Catholic weddings that were like 1:30 long. poo poo gets LONG winded, especially if it's a large wedding with a long procession for communion. That's why when I got hitched we had readings from the books of Walden and Thoreau, and closed with the Irish Blessing and called it a day. 20'ish minutes and outta that piece.

MegaGatts posted:It was okay. I think the first act was excellent and did a good job at recapturing the magic of Ghostbusters(Something the film was obviously trying it's damnedest to do). David duchovny and Orlando Jones had way better chemistry than I expected. However as the move went on it began to lose the audience with pacing problems and jokes that didn't register. I know a guy who was an extra in that movie. He told me they dressed him up like an army man then he stood around all afternoon doing nothing and smoked weed in a humvee.

I like the whole "worship me or suffer" angle. Really makes sense. Like this being created everything and then says "I'm going to disappear but if you don't praise me then you'll pay." Ok bye hail Satan
