I know the Koran is right up there but I will still rate the Bible as #1.

Bauhaus, if you don't like me, you don't have to reply. Yes it is an insult, what you are gonna do about it?

The Bible is still number one. Considering that Harvard, Yale and Princeton when first started were based on Biblical beliefs.

I am a bible believer but let me just ask one question. Wouldn't the world be a better place if we just lived by the Bible's principles? No matter if you believe it or not the things it tells us not to do are our problems. It's states "If you know to do something good and don't do it, it's bad". Makes sense to me.

I can't say that any book is stupid. It didn't write itself. The Bible to me, is a guideline for some but expresses the opinions, biases, and vision of men. Therefore as man is flawed the Bible is also. People will take from any book what fits how they think and work it into "truth". I have yet to see one cleric fight to portray Jesus as He is described in the Bible as having skin of bronze and hair of wool. That blonde haired, blue eyed false image is still pushed as His appearance and it's wrong. Man and mans perceptions of acceptance.

Some people see it that way because they are Spititually Ignorant. Anything people read and do not understand they say it is stupid because they do not want to admit their ignorance of the subject. The people who CAN SEE Spiritually are enlightened by the truth and learn from it. The Truth sometimes hurts as the saying goes.

No, the "stupidest" [sic] book ever written in human history is "It takes a village" by Hillary Clinton... But the bible runs a close second....

you would have to assume that even if it was it is the greatest seller of all time and has molded history and peoples lives for eons. even if christ was just a guy he stands as the single most influential person in all history effecting all of the world.

This is the pinnacle of an Atheist's argument? An Insult?

dear deadman: i do not understand your logic to this. the Bible is a love letter, to us from God himself, the people who don't like or understand the Bible, are the folks who are living a life that they know they shouldn't be, and don't want to hear that they are living a lie.
MERRY CHRISTMAS

Well, it controls the actions of millions of people and makes them do what it says even though some of the things it says don't make any sense at all..sounds like a pretty clever book to me.
