The Bible is an immoral bit of utter crap.

"If a book tells you that the holocaust was good and commanded by God, that book is immoral. If it tells you to continue murdering, condones slavery, and give commands which are absolutely immoral. Then it is immoral." It doesn't say to continue murdering. And this genocide you speak of was actually a town invasion... "I previously noted that slavery was argued from a very strong religious position. Had there been the smallest fraction to suggest that slavery wasn't God-sanctioned then a number of the pious southerners would have been in an indefensible position. However, theologically they were right: The Bible condones slavery." Again, it was a different time. War slaves were common. Selling out to be a slave was common. However, the only time where there was all-out slavery on a defenseless culture was with Egyptians vs. Israelis, which God opposed. "How about homosexuality today? Much of the anti-gay bigotry comes from religion. They specific cite Leviticus 20:13 repeatedly, and they are right. From a Biblical standpoint the argument is solid, homosexuals are to be put to death 'their blood is upon them'; That is horrific. It's immoral, unjust, and bigoted." Actually, most of the "unclean" laws went away with the death of Jesus. Additionally, those were the laws of Israel at the time. At one point, John Adams restricted free speech in America. Is my textbook immoral now? No. Also, because most people agree that homosexuality is a sin, it is actually moral for those people to not practice homosexuality. "Further, the central doctrine of Christianity is immoral. The idea of blood sacrifice and sins of parents on their children are completely immoral and absolutely central. Jesus sacrifices himself to himself in order to give himself permission to forgive his creations for his mistakes. It's blood sacrifice to wash away sins other people committed (while not knowing right from wrong!)." Blood sacrifice ENDED with Jesus. Anything before that can be called history, the past, what once was. "Jews (typically orthodox) keep the Sabbath, on Saturday (it's actually called Sabbath in many languages), they don't do any work as they are commanded by God. Outside of the 7th day Adventists and the Sabbathists, Christians largely ignore this." Why do you think Christians go to church on Saturday? "The code of laws specifically outlaws murder and stealing as well as making a number of very practical provisions. It predates the Bible." However, you give no reason for the Bible to be unable to copy good rules. Leviticus 20:10 " 'If a man commits adultery with another man's wife—with the wife of his neighbor—both the adulterer and the adulteress must be put to death.'" That was history of Israel; the Ten Commandments said nothing of the sort. Hey, times were stricter back then. "It's unconstitutional to enforce 80% of the Ten Commandments..." Well, yeah, because we chose not to be an entirely Christian nation, but there were still influences. It allows for freedom of religion, but that's actually about it, because the law can still borrow ideas from any culture or religion it pleases. "A couple of early American colonies were setup because puritans lost the English Civil War and were no longer able to persecute people as freely as they wanted to..." Well, that's religion for you. Why should I check it? You should back up your claims, not me. "Many Enlightenment thinkers were deists and individualists..." And yet, you have no sources. "No. Jesus is clearly making a point..." If I fine you $5 for speeding, and $5 for assault, is speeding assault? No. "From context, there's no argument to suggest I mean literally feces." I went with the first definition I saw. "The Bible's a pretty long book..." I'm still not going to spend 50 minutes watching your facts. As I already said, you should cite facts within those videos to use, or else they're not part of your argument. "The Bible has nice thin pages which are quite useful..." http://www.urbandictionary.com... You still need to show how it is either pointless, senseless, insolent, or meaningless. Pick one, and give reason why. The Bible addressed harsh times, but the end gives the final instructions, not the beginning. History and morals. "Wait, it does!" That doesn't mean that the rod isn't metaphorical. "I said that the Bible was immoral crap, not completely crap..." To affirm your resolution, you need to connect the Bible to your definition (http://www.urbandictionary.com...), which you haven't. The past is the past, but today, the Bible is indeed wise. If you were to follow Proverbs today, you would be wise. Thus, it serves a purpose, and thus isn't worthless. A book that preaches the need to be wise is good. "Genocide!..." Well, it WAS war... "You think the Ten Commandments weren't to be enforced?..." As I said, eternal suffering is punishment enough. The death penalties for such things have changed over time, but the basic meaning is the same; don't do such things, because they are BAD. The killing was just in the times. And while we're at it... "Bit - a small piece or quantity of some material thing" You still need to enforce this definition. And it looks as if you've dropped the offensive argument.
