I think this is misguided. If something as small as the color of someone's bra affects your "struggle for purity," then you probably weren't winning the struggle to begin with. It's taking the whole purity thing a little too far.
Hmm... They sure trusted science to fly them to El Salvador... Criminals.
So are you saying that Psalm 23 shouldn't be used in funerals because it was about one specific incident? Figuring out who it was originally addressed to is irrelevant when the vast majority of Christians operate under the assumption that they should apply all verses of the Bible to their lives. I will admit that this particular blog post is not an effective argument against the existence of a god, however it does help to show the fallibility of the supposedly perfect compilation that is the bible. Also, the fact that there is so much room for interpretation in the words of the bible really makes one wonder why, if the creator of the universe himself wrote this, it is so unclear on so much. Seems rather silly. The fact that GG was able to expose this passage as nonsense in essence casts the rest of the bible in doubt, because if one part of the bible is not perfect, how can we know the rest is? Please don't just go after the weaker arguments and try to claim victory, actually put forward some new evidence so that those of us who are doomed to hell if you are right shall not suffer such a terrible demise.
I like it. Very nice change.
I heard about that study... Crazy!
Nice choice. You know the opponent in the race for his seat has raised over $750,000 because of this idiocy...
WTF? My first thought is... Would he support it if it was Muslim prayer or is it just his?
Sounds good. I might have to check it out if I'm down in that area. I'll probably be a little more apt to doing something once I move down to Tuscaloosa. Anyway, let me know if you know of anything I should be on the lookout for in Alabama.
I really wish I could, but I don't know that I have the money at the moment. Once I get a little more stable I'll get back to y'all.
