Atheists only: what's your favourite bit of the bible?

Question

I like "as a dog returning to its vomit is a fool doing some stupid thing a second time" (proverbs). There are some less cynical bits which are also cool. And yes I'm an atheist.

Ooooh this is too hard. It's going to the vote. I'll get my three points some other way.

Answer 1

Genesis 42:26

they loaded their grain on their donkeys and left.

Deep. Also fond of Ezekiel 23:20

Answer 2

i got here across Revelations the most exciting to study with my 7 - 10 12 months previous cabin friends at church camp. stated it each 12 months for our "bedtime e book" (alongside distinctive the racier verses out of Psalms if I were given a 2d turn). Hell definite. I also got here around the single the position Jesus curses the fig tree extremely humorous--communicate about out of personality! Hmm, and the area the position Jesus says you may't be his disciple except you hate your relations's particularly reliable, as well (Luke 14:26). Leviticus replaced into also distinctive exciting, too.

Answer 3

1 Kings 7:23 describes an enormous brass cauldron in Solomon's temple:

"And he made a molten sea, ten cubits from the one brim to the other: it was round all about, and his height was five cubits: and a line of thirty cubits did compass it round about. "

circumference (30 cubits) / diameter (10 cubits) = 3
pi = 3
Huh??!11!!1!eleven1!!

If we go with the fundamentalist assumption that the bible is god's word and is not subject to interpretation, we must assume that god commanded pi to equal three. It's interesting that fundamentalists never try to have math classes and textbooks changed to present an alternative to the "theory" of pi.
