Zero: You completely missed the point of the historical document comment. I was refering to when people say that I'm simply picking and choosing what I belive from documents based on personal prejudice. To some extent this is true, I'll give, but it should be with everyone.
Moses was a real person? OMG so shocking! I GUESS THIS MEANS THERES A GOD!
You completely disregard my entire argument in your post. The whole
pointof my argument is that I know nothing of god or sngaiu, or whatever the hell anything "beyond out understanding" is, or what it entails. Not only did I never say I believed I understood god, but I expressly state that NOONE DOES, which to a normal person could be interpreted to include myself.
I never took an angle on any particualr religion, so wtf is this about the Bible? I never even mention any specifics of religion because its irrelevant in my argument and would have no place.
Jeanette: Being an aethiest does not mean you negate the possibility of a god in your mind. It simply means you are without a religion. As it will never be possible to find out if a god "beyond our understanding" exists, there is no logical reason (besides comfort) for me, or anyone else, to believe in it.
Proto: O NO U DI-ENT!
