Ridiculous, or fascinating? Why and why not?

Oh, and in my Bible it says thou shall not kill. Nothing about, thou shall not murder. That sounds suspiciously human of the Bible.

Oh, and last but not my least favorite question. If Jesus was born to die for our sins, why and I did Jesus say and I quote, "father, forgive them for they know not what they do"?
Isn't that odd, and ironic for thy divine lord, to call his people ignorant fools while being crucified?

Anyways, don't try to understand me, I'm a walking contradiction and very unintelligible. LoL, if you think I just called myself an idiot.

Adam/Eve didn't have to "learn" to walk. God made created them full grown adults. I don't find it fascinating or ridiculous, just common sense.

The learning to walk question pales into insignificance when one considers how God created them from dust in the first place. Now THAT'S ridiculous and fascinating.
Surely 'kill' equals 'murder'. That's just semantics. (Don't forget the Bible passed through three translations: Aramaic to Greek to Latin to English.)
As for direct quotes from Jesus, you have to remember that the Gospels they appear in were written at least one generation after the actual events. How accurate can that be? (In any case, I don't see how it is odd and ironic for someone being crucified to call the people doing it 'ignorant fools'; I'd be inclined to call them worse than that.)
As for your being unintelligible, I think you are the opposite. Still don't understand you, though.

What I don't understand is how can humans in the bible seem to live for like 900 years and in today's world humans live for about 100 years.

Uh,... if you kill someone that IS murder. hello?

In regards to your least fav quote: Jesus was asking his father to forgive his killers. Jesus lived and dies by the words "love your enemies".he was speaking to all that killed him but he was including the Jews who made a serious mistake of failing to realize Gods plan for their nation. They MURDERED their king.

But i have the feeling you dont really want a real answer.

You need to repent of your sins, for Gods fiery wrath is upon you. Hell is never full and the fool has said in his heart that there is no God.

Jesus said hating someone was murdering them in your heart - does that sound suspiciously human as well?

More precisely, they learned to run. Adam was chasing Eve around trying to get a little nookie.

Well, you are correct, at least in part, right there near the end.
