And don't say ANYTHING about the bible.  Trust me, the bible's just messed up.

I completely agree with you. And don't worry, I'd never mention the bible. except that I think it's probably the first NOVEL to be written!!\nI think the homophobic aspect had a good deal to do with children's up-bringing. People either take on their parent's views or run a mile from them. I did the latter. My parent's were so racist and homophibic, an inheritance I didn't want.

There is no such statement made by  Jesus in the Bible .

Hm attacking the author of a book for his creativity. So the book is fiction. You do realize that there are those that claim your new testament is fiction as well, right? Im might tell you as well not to believe everything you read. Right? I want to know why you think Dan Brown needs professional help, amanochev. What leads you to make such an intolerant and vapid statement? Bred2B, people could say the exact same things about the bible. Pure fantasy. Why is it blasphemous? Its a novel. Dont tell me youre starting to act like someone published a cartoon of sorts...People have freedom of speech and expression. Dan Brown wrote an entertaining book, that millions have enjoyed. Blasphemy? Dont you think thats a wee intolerant...And maybe a little dumb sounding? LIke it could have been said centuries ago? Im just curious. In the meantime, heres a post of mine, I think some of you should read.http://answers.yahoo.com/question/index;_ylt=AqkU6qiSgh7Cn30xkZZXD8fsy6IX?qid=1006022602143\nBeruch hashem

You won't find it in the Bible, that's for sure.

watching the video made me sick to my stomach. i can't answer why he made that joke. it is something you would have to ask him yourself. i believe all people are to be loved and not singled out because they live contrary to what the bible says. to be honest, i'm just speechless as to a pastor behaving in such a manner.

Nope,it's one of those passages that I disagree with.What you quoted was one of many unethical verses in the bible.I don't believe or follow everything I read.

If someone asks a biblically based question and will not accept a biblical answer, then they were not trying to ask you anything at all. They are looking for a contradiction to discount anything biblical in the first place as to excuse their unbelief!

The Bible does not say and anyone giving you an age is just guessing or giving you their opinion, it was obviously unimportant if it is not mentioned.

That is awful.  People who never go to church, never read the bible, and curse all the time are not saved in my opinion.  If they are really saved they'll have the desire to read God's word, meet with other christians, and wont want to say evil words. They are just one of those people who claim to be something, but really are not.

Wouldn't do any good.  I'm sure he doesn't have to abide the rules in the Bible anyway.

The bible was written by primitive savages for primitive savages, it has no place in twenty first century civilization.

I wouldn't take anything in the bible literally.

Not laughing here.  Even Christians don't always understand Revelations and the signs.  I think the big thing is, our human mind just can't comprehend what the Bible says on the subject.  Most don't want to believe it's happening or are too wrapped up in themselves to care.

If we are going to invoke Leviticus to condemn homosexuality then we must also remember that the Bible calls for the execution of homosexuals. Not only that but it calls for the stoning of disobedient children and adulterers. I wish that fundamentalist/evangelical Christians would not be so selective in their application of scripture. And to the guy who says that 80% of homosexuals have AIDS? Where on earth did you get such a ridiculous statistic? I've never heard such rubbish in all my life.

Actually, I think it would be quite difficult to "understand" the Bible as each concept that is presented is contradicted by another.  It's hard to understand a book that has no clear message.

Nothing was "taken out" of the bible. Some things were left out, but they were never "in" to begin with. The bible is a hodge podge collection of writings from many different people. Not one of those people ever meant for or expected their writings to become part of a holy book. Some of them are freaking letters, ffs, written specifically from one person to another, not for the purpose of being scripture. One day a bunch of priests got together and decided that some of it was "the word of god™" and some of it not. How do decide what's "the word of god™" and what isn't, you ask? You don't. You do what they did and pick whatever suits your agenda (power, money) and leave out the rest.
