older cultures as well. And most also take the Old Testament as stories from which they can pick and choose for the points they wish to make. (Cafeteria style christians.)
Then where in the hell does the bit about Jesus come in to die for original sin, when, the Genesis story is just a myth??
What kind of ethical philosophy is it that condemns every child, even before it is born, to inherit the sin of some remote ancestor that never existed????????? (scary that fundamental christians believe this, isn't it???)
And interesting that to be really fair, the bible is not systematically evil, just weird, as anyone would expect of a chaotically put together document, composed, revised, translated and 'improved" by hundreds of people unknown to us all, and mostly unknown to each other over 9 centuries. How can "thinking" people be so gullible? (Or did I miss it completely...this type of person cannot think, just "believes".
