I prefer silence to parrots.
Think about it. If the entire universe of your faith rested within 66 books, what else can you talk about? If the Jews could win a copyright suit, then Christianity would have only 27 books left of their holy universe!
Every apologetic study, every best-selling evangelist’s paperback, every Catholic reference book, every piece of Church-sponsored science ever made; hinges on those 66 books, or often, the 27 books!
Just one step outside the Christian literary universe and that ‘parrot’s’ universe crumbles! I’m not talking about general information such as mathematics or language etc, which belongs to everyone and not just the Church. I’m talking about phenomena that the Bible cannot explain, or that which is popularly dismissed as the work of the Devil - most notably the paranormal – and every other world religion or spiritual practice.
By the way, long before the parrots started quoting, Satan was known to be the best user of scriptural quotes. I didn’t say it. Jesus himself said it! And by the way, don’t you dare mistake me for the feathered kind! LOL

I agree. By quoting religious scripture all you are proving is that you have no original thought and can merely regurgitate the same inane pablum you have been brainwashed with. With a change of clothes they would make excellent members of Al Qaeda.

I'll lift my hands and say yes! :-) Personally, I want to get a better understanding of the Bible. Not so I can bore people to tears by quoting a lot of looooong Scriptures.

every time i put a question to them about themselves the only answers i get are quotes from the new testament (and we all know how true that piece of fiction is ,dont we?)they are lost in a world of makebelieve.

Constant repetition doesn't make a thing any more real than does simply believing in something.
Repeating a fiction is just that... over and over and over...Good luck to those who do it!

The problem is...
Without "God", Christianity is nothing!
So everything is attributed to "God".
That however, is also problematic.
So they invented the Devil.
That however, is also problematic.
So they invented Hell to lock up the Devil.
That is also problematic.
and so on and so forth...
Funny isn't it?

I am too, but everyone has a right to stand-up (preach) what they believe in. Unless of course your views don't conform to what the supposed majority believe- then you're just expected to shut-up.
