Do you agree with the ancients?

I like the part about allegory. I think the ancient ones\nwho wrote the Bible would shake their heads in disbelief\nat the Christian fundamentalists who persist in a literal\ninterpretation of the Bible when the figurative meaning\nis the all important thing. I fear the fundamentalists with\ntheir politically selfish leaders would put the rest of\nus scientifically enlightened ones to the sword if they\nhad the chance.

Probably not, unless they had scientific proof that they were the creators of mankind.  Even so, why should I fall down and worship them?

May be, it depends how well we correlate our history with mythology. But in some ancient civilizations like India, Greece u indeed find many similarities.

I don't know if he was a historical figure or not.  Not convincing evidence *for* in my opinion.\n\nViews on tribalism?  Well, I can see why tribalism was important 2000 years ago, but I don't think a bronze age religion and its values should be imposed in the 21st century.

If it is then Buddhists will just accept it. We leave origins to scientists, they understand it best....

i read book, i don't know if this is what you want or\nnot,but ancient Sumerians believed that the planet in\nquestion is in an orbit that takes it deep into space\nand invisible to earth. this planet was the home of a\ncivilization which is widely believed created human\nexistence on this planet. they traveled to our planet\nduring a close encounter of the planets and spawned\nlife. the Sumerian culture is the oldest known to man\nand are the closest in there beliefs and mythology to\nthe truth well i don't know how that sounds to you,\nhope its  good. there mythology has been read and\ntranscribed metaphorically, with evidence of a people\nwith the ability to fly. in planes. i think its called\ngods of the chariots of chariots of the gods . good\nluck my friend and ii hope this has been informative

Yeah, I think your're right.\n\nJesus said that the traditions of the elders make the word of God of none effect!

I agree with most of the above. The things you say hold true for most believers ( in any religion). Their religion seems to make them intolerant. You are able to discern between what is reality and what is said in a very old book. Times change but the religions do not change with them, thus making a lot of religious people stay behind in the doctrines of their religion which were made thousands of years ago.

Yes, There is an Absolute Truth & Basis of that Truth and you will find it in the Bible..(John 14:6)...If you agree, fine and if you don't agree, fine...Do your research and choose what you feel is right!

*Chuckling* Definately not, as the quote somewhat goes, Read everything you can and believe maybe 10% of what you read.\n\nAs to our fanatic friends, believing a document written in the dark ages when people thought the earth was flat, by people who lived hundreds of years after the supposid events, well make your own judegements on that...
