...as if the number of people who believe in their religion (or lack thereof) has anything to do with the veracity of that religion (or lack thereof)?

There's lots of bad reasons to belong to something, including peer and familial pressure, ignorance, and just plain stubborness. Not to mention that a lot of the bigger religions historically have been spread via violence.

Why do people think that numbers are a measure of how "true" a religion is?

The book of Job is one of the most telling of all. ALot of non-beleivers dismiss beleif in God as a belief in a tyrant or punisher, but the book of Job seems to clarify alot of those accusations. Job went through hell and received the kingdom. He went through a horrible tribulation and when it was all said and done he received 10 times more than what he had. Is that not the same as overall righteousness? those that accuse it all as a harsh experiment and so on, do not realize that the outcome willbe grand? It almost as Job is not a real person but our lives today or in the end time. Is that accurate or do you have a different spin on it? thanks!

On my older questions people always told me "Read the Bible!!".

So, I did that. It left me with a million question, and I still think it's a fairytale. Most questions I'm left with are about why people could even literally believe such stories.

Anyway, I read it. And now I read answers that literally say:

"How pathetic. An unbeliever who attempts to use the bible to make a point."

So, first you people make me read your book, and when I have an opinion about what you made me read, I need to shut up?

Can I safely conclude that "read the bible!" actually means "Oh, geezz, stop thinking and just agree with my version of the truth!" ??

Pretty much everything in the Bible about creation is what the scientists say and the Bible was around way before the scientists.

I've noticed a lot of relgious people, Christians in particular, ask the question "Why are athiests/agnostics in the religious category of Y! Answers?".

If you've asked this question...did you ever listen to the answer?
